2013 Audi S8 4.0T

The Audi S8 trades cylinders for turbochargers.


The idea of a high-revving Lamborghini V-10 in an executive sedan still sounds pretty ridiculous, but that’s exactly the formula Audi followed to create the last S8. It’s a car of which we have fond memories, excepting perhaps our long-term example’s costly facial rearrangement (our fault) and propensity for bent rims (the Michigan DOT’s fault). This next-generation S8, however, eschews the exotic engine for one with roots in an ultra-luxury brand: It was developed in tandem with fellow VW Grouper Bentley.
