Audi is displaying an A8 hybrid at the Geneva Motor Show. Its two power units – a 2.0 TFSI engine and an electric motor – give the car the same outstanding performance as one fitted with a large-capacity conventional six-cylinder engine.
The A8 hybrid’s power units have a combined output of 256PS and a massive 480 Nm torque. The average fuel consumption is only 42mpg and thanks to the smaller engine, its CO2 emissions of 144 g/km will be class leading.
The powerful electric motor is integrated between the 211PS four-cylinder petrol engine and the 8-speed tiptronic transmission, reducing friction and power loss.
The A8 Hybrid can be powered by the engine or motor individually or simultaneously. The car is capable of staying in the pure electric drive mode at speeds of up to 40mph.
The A8 hybrid is expected to be available to order from late 2011. For more information call 01202 775050.
