DESCRIPTION:
Every revolution starts in the streets.
Introducing the Audi V8 Quattro.
Take the World’s First Fully Automatic Quattro Drive for a Drive.
Maybe you’ve decided to reward yourself with an ultra-luxury sedan. (Who would say you’re not entitled?) But that doesn’t mean you’ve lost your enthusiasm for revolutionary ideas.
Like the notion that a car of this class should reflect your intelligence, not just your wealth.
Or that power is only a virtue when it’s properly distributed.
Or that driving a luxury car should be more than a spectator sport.
Audi agrees. And is taking such revolutionary beliefs to the streets. In the form of the new V8 Quattro.
A car that translates Audi’s 79 years of unconventional automotive thinking into unequalled technology. And uncompromised performance. Because its stunningly
advanced V8 engine and automatic all-wheel Quattro drive form a potent combination of power and control. And that exclusive combination yields a most exclusive kind of
exhilaration.
An exhilaration that must be measured over time and over distance to be evaluated fairly. So, for the next few minutes, take the metaphorical wheel. And take a drive into the future of the ultra-luxury sedan.
From the moment you
pull away, you sense the authority of this innovative powerplant. Constructed of
leichtmetall
, it is the world’s most compact V8. Yet its 3.6 liters produce 240 HP. And its 32 valves explain the engine’s willingness to rev freely. The power output, the throtde response, the smoothness all suggest a nearly ideal
design configuration.
You feel the surge, but hear only silence. As the venerable Financial Times of London (which knows the difference between noise and news) discovered,
“It is quiet. At 120 mph on the autobahn, the loudest noises to be heard inside this large long-legged car were some wind roar around the mirrors and whine from the tyres...”
So, you’re propelled past the wide suburban lawns quietly. And quickly. You go from 0 to 60 in 8.7 seconds. Swift, by any standards. (Especially on the German fast track where it competes; in fact, at top speed, you’re likely to see cars like the BMW 735i and the Mercedes 420 SEL in the
rearview mirror.)
Soon, the winding coastal highway becomes your plaything, as you set the Electronic Driving Program to “sport” mode. Result? The automatic
four-speed ZF gearbox recalibrates instantly; the performance is brisk and bracing.
But power alone is not sufficient challenge. After all, August Horch (one of Audi’s founders) developed Germany’s first eight-cylinder engine back in
1926. To Audi, the issue is usable power.
So your new V8 distributes its power in a revolutionary way. Thanks to the latest evolution of allwheel Quattro drive.
How? Three separate differ
entials work in concert. Traction is continually monitored. Wheel slip is detected within 1/50th of a second. And the system compensates accordingly. You enjoy special confidence, because
it widens your margin of performance.
Consider that stretch of snow-covered, half-plowed road up ahead. In the blink of an eye, the
Quattro drive can shift 100% of the power from front wheels to rear — and back again. If necessary, its rear differential can even transfer as much as 80% of that considerable power from side to side. Just as startling, it seamlessly choreographs such sure-footedness with the security of anti-lock braking.
And on a road like this, that might make all the difference.
Of course, Quattro is also a fair weather friend — with similar advantages on dry pavement. Need evidence? How about the string of sunny-day upsets
it’s been compiling on the SCCA Trans-Am
and IMSA-GTO circuits? Or its effortless way with a curve? Or its laser-like precision through the corners?
As you’re beginning to discover, in the Audi V8 Quattro, you determine where the road will take you.
Unfortunately, in this case, it’s taking you right into stop-and-go traffic. Fortunately, you have the
assurance of another Audi first: internal brake calipers. By turning traditional brake design on its head, the Audi V8 provides a 17% larger brake surface. Which means less heat buildup, less brake fade and more peace of mind.
In fact, you take a moment to consider your good fortune. Surrounded
by burled walnut trim. Ensconced in heated leather sport seats. Refreshed by an Electronic Climate Control capable of renewing the air every 27 seconds. Serenaded by an Audi/Bose* Music System. And protected by a
driver-side Supplemental Restraint System. You sit in sensible opulence. The cellular phone allows for "hands-free” operation. The on-board Auto-Check monitors 13 vital operating conditions. The seats offer 10-way adjustment. You drive on. Alert, aware and at ease. Even as day turns to night. And
urban freeways turn to country lanes and mountain switchbacks.
Though the road twists and turns like a Slinky
®
your V8 Quattro is undaunted. The newly improved suspension (with its telescoping gas-charged shocks)
shrugs off the road’s worst. Truth is, here is where the Audi V8 excels: turning raw power into a refined asset and stepping lightly where lesser cars might trip. In short, as Car and Driver said, it “provides what can only be called a superior
driving experience.”
As the miles click by uneventfully, you take solace in this Audi’s farsighted design. Shaped from 100% galvanized steel, its body offers a full decade of rust protection.* Equipped with self-diagnosing computers, its engine stores service data for easy maintenance. And protected by the Audi Advantage its owner enjoys years of worry-free driving.
But while the rational reasons for driving the V8 Quattro are legion, the true reward
is ultimately emotional. You simply feel it. And, as you pull into your drive, you can be forgiven your small measure of smug satisfaction.
After all, at this exact moment, in this exact car, life is good.
