Its new 4.2-litre V8 common rail turbodiesel engine gives Ingolstadt’s flagship saloon the sort of performance that makes its popular 4.2-litre V8 petrol sibling look rather ordinary. When fitted with this new engine, the three-year-old A8 delivers effortless ability in all weather conditions. It may just be the most complete luxury car on offer today. The hi-tech V8 can lay claim to being the most powerful diesel passenger car engine on sale. With 326bhp at 3750rpm, the A8 4.2 TDI confidently casts aside the likes of the 300bhp BMW 740d, upcoming 314bhp Mercedes-Benz S420 CDI and the 313bhp Volkswagen Phaeton V10. It’s also a 51bhp increase over the German car maker’s two year-old 4.0-litre V8 diesel engine – proof of the rapid pace of diesel engine development.
