Audi S8 The process of economic reforms that started about two decades ago has created a new breed of super rich Indians who love to flaunt their fortune with mega mansions and fast cars. Auto companies have taken heed and now the best cars in the world are making a beeline for Indian roads. Even with astronomical import fees, nothing is stopping the rich from getting what they want.

Cars in the ensemble of Audi have always been defined by their brash and spectacular sportiness. The new Audi S8 with its exciting contours easily takes the sporty feel a notch higher and sets new standards of high performance and irresistible style. Powered by a superlative V10 5.2 FSI engine that delivers a power output of 331 kW (450 bhp) and top values for a ten-cylinder engine, the Audi S8 promises to be a literal beast on the road. The engine's combined fuel consumption of 13.7 l/100 km combines dynamically with CO2 emissions of 329 g/km.

Much of Audi S8's sportiness accrues from the incorporation of stiffer settings for the air suspension and a vastly modified steering. A latest-generation quattro permanent four-wheel drive is there to ensure supreme performance potential of the ten-cylinder engine. And for those who might intend to get ambitious and drive their Audi S8 to its most ultimate potential, there is the option to opt for the innovative ceramic brakes that are available only on request. The ceramic brakes consistently offer top braking performance even at extreme loads.

The car's exterior inspires the aesthetical feel of geometrical perfection that is meant to captivate you at first sight. In the front is the striking single-frame grille, coming in platinum gray, that displays the S8 emblem. All the vertical struts are in a chrome finish. The elevated status of the S8 is further exemplified with the 20-inch cast aluminum wheels of S design, the aluminum-look exterior mirrors and door handles with aluminum strip. A dual-branch exhaust system is rounded off by four oval chrome-look tailpipes arranged in pairs.

Audi S8 interiors are characterized by a series of elegant lines, high-grade materials, and a driver-oriented styling. There is a 3-spoke leather-covered sports steering wheel that enables you to operate many infotainment elements and change gear comfortably via two aluminum-look shift paddles. Particularly distinctive is the design and coloring of the instrument cluster in the car's cockpit, with needles in white, scales in light gray and numbers in italic script. The Valcona leather seats in bi-color look, available in four sporty color combinations, are irresistible as well as very comfy.
