Audi A8 had its Chinese launch in Guangzhou yesterday


The Audi A8 had its Chinese launch in Guangzhou yesterday and left audiences impressed with the latest incarnation of the popular full size sedan. Interestingly, Mercedes top management were seen stalking the crowds at the Audi press launch.

The Audi A8 L (long wheelbase) is 130 millimeters (0.43 ft) longer than the standard-wheelbase version. It comes with an extensive array of engines: two V6 engines (TDI 250 hp, TFSI 290 hp), two 4.2l V8s (TDI 350 hp, FSI 372 hp) and a whooping W12 unit. This top of the range engine, a 6.3l FSI, develops 500 hp and a peak torque of 625 Nm at 3,250 rpm. As an option, a panoramic glass roof with two glass panels is being offered.
