ABT Audi A8 Facelift Gets Tricked-Out

ABT Sportline makes a point of putting together an upgrade package for every single Audi model that comes out of Ingolstadt, even if it’s just a facelift. This new ABT Audi A8 is based on the latest iteration of the luxury saloon and it gets a whole range of new goodies.

 Starting with the exterior, ABT Audi A8 gets a chin spoiler that complements the stock front bumper and gives the car a more purposeful look, complemented with side skirts and a revised rear apron. Other contributing factors here include smoked lights, new tailpipes, 25mm lowered ride height, and a set of ABT wheels available in different sizes and colors.

As for the mechanicals, ABT offers a decent power upgrade kit for every engine in the range. There guys are very thorough. The 4.0 TFSI V8 engine which is the most popular engine for the Audi A8 is boosted from 435 hp/600 Nm 540 hp/720 Nm; the efficient 4.2 TDI diesel gets a bump from 385 hp/850 Nm to 430 hp/920 Nm, making it a more logical choice over the V8 petrol; and the not so good 3.0 TDI V6 gets a boost from 258 hp/580 Nm to 300 hp/640 Nm.
