Audi today is announcing pricing for the 2016 S8 plus and RS 7 performance models. With more powerful engines and
enhanced design elements, the S8 plus and RS 7 performance offer elevated performance and sportiness, further
reinforcing the brand’s position in the premium sport sedan segment.
S8 plus
Enhanced for maximum performance and driving enjoyment, the 2016 Audi S8 plus is the latest variant of the A8 flagship sedan
to enter the Audi lineup. Featuring a 4.0 TFSI engine with an eight-speed Tiptronic® transmission, the S8 plus produces an
impressive 516 lb-ft of torque and 605 hp – an increase of 85 horsepower compared to the outgoing S8. With an additional 73 lb-
ft of torque available through overboost, for a total 553 lb-ft, the S8 plus is one of the highest powered sport sedans in the
premium segment.
The S8 plus accelerates from 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds, to a top track speed of 155 mph. The available Dynamic package
increases the sedan’s top track speed to 190 mph. Core to the design of the S8 plus is the lightweight, aluminum body
construction. Based on the lightweight ASF® construction, the sedan’s body weighs less than 510 lbs.
The legendary quattro® drivetrain comes standard along with a rear sport differential which further improves driving dynamics
through active torque vectoring. Adaptive sport air suspension and dynamic steering expand the performance and luxury
dynamics specifically for the S8 plus.
The S8 plus exterior features the high level of craftsmanship and design detail for which the Audi brand is known. A standard
rear lip spoiler is painted in the exterior body color and the mirror housings are silver, differentiating it from the A8. New 21” 5-
double-arm S8 plus titanium wheels are also standard.
The optional Black optic exterior package includes carbon fiber mirror housings, a black Singleframe® grill and window
surrounds, a carbon front blade and diffusor trim and darkened taillights.
The optional Dynamic package includes high performance ceramic brakes and a carbon rear lip spoiler. The package also
includes a modified sport exhaust system that gives the S8 plus an even more aggressive, powerful sound, and an increased top
speed limiter, which increases the sedan’s top speed to 190 mph.
RS 7 performance
The all-new RS 7 performance model offers more power than ever before. The 4.0 TFSI engine now produces 605 hp and 516 lb-
2. ft of torque. Adding to this power is an overboost function, allowing the driver to temporarily increase power to an impressive
553 lb-ft of torque. The RS 7 performance model sprints from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds and reaches a top track speed of
190 mph.
The standard eight-speed Tiptronic® transmission has been designed to provide quick, smooth shifts. The driver can choose
between automatic modes or change gears manually either by tapping the selector lever or by using the shift paddles on the RS
sport leather steering wheel.
The RS 7 performance is differentiated from the standard RS 7 with carbon ceramic brakes and RS sport suspension with
Dynamic Ride Control (DRC) along with new, striking details including a redesigned bumper with rear diffuser insert and sport
exhaust black tailpipes, carbon mirror housings and the gloss black RS Singleframe grille. New RS 7 performance exclusive 21”
cast aluminum wheels come standard.
The interior of the RS 7 performance comes standard with RS sports seats, with the option for black Valcona leather and
Alcantara with blue contrast stitching and carbon twill blue inlays.
