Hello steemians!
I present to you the ‘Pilot episode’ of “What about my car?” This rubric is all about cars and their origins. Good news is that you can actually participate in it. Don’t worry, there are only two simple rules:
You are wondering what the content of that post would be? In the article you will find overview, Pros & Cons, evolution, followed by pictures and/or videos and fun facts about the car you have requested.
I guess it’s enough talking. Let’s get down to the fun part. I am going to start with a car which I don’t own but hopefully one day I will. And that’s the Audi A8.
2009 is the last year of the second generation A8 production. This is a vehicle combining style, luxury and power. On the market you can choose between standard (short) wheel base and long wheel base.
The light aluminum chases are compensating the weight of the big 4.2L V8 engine which generates 340 PS (250 kW) and accelerates from 0-100 km/h for only 6.4 seconds.
In this model Audi presented for the first time 6-speed automatic transmission, driver identification system, adaptive air suspension, multi media interface and many other innovations.
People say:
the bigger the car is
the harder to park gets
I personally think that this depends on the driver of course and besides you can get used to it. The permanent all-wheel drive system will help you go through tough terrains.
Sounds good, eh? But yetagain we all know that nothing is perfect, just like the A8’s multimedia interface - it's known to be not very intuitive. But would that stop you buy such a reliable and comfortable car?
There are 36,520 stitches on the leather interior of the second generation A8.
