ABT’s latest
encounter with the new-gen A8 has endowed Audi‘s flagship saloon with some
modest updates. That’s meant as a compliment, because there isn’t much that one
can do to such a ride without ruining that appealing exterior design. So, no
flashy upgrades this time round.
Now, in exchange
for your hard-earned cash, the tuner can fit your new A8 with a few aftermarket
parts. The aerodynamic package includes front and rear aprons, and a discreet
spoiler mounted on the boot lid.
The new 22-inch
rims, with a dual-tone finish and Y-spoke pattern, complete the list of changes
on the outside. Greeting users in the cabin are the door entry lights, and for
an even deeper effect, ABT has added a special gear knob and a carbon ignition button.
ABT’s take on the
A8 isn’t all show and no go, as it also comes with a bump in power. The tuner
has modified the 3.0-liter TDI diesel engine to pump out 330 PS and 650 Nm of torque, with the extra 44 PS and
50 Nm of torque achieved via a simple ECU remap.
