V-6 for A8L: Audi follows BMW lead in big-car engine plan

Opinion | 'Across the country, MAGA candidates for statewide offices lost in blue and purple states. In Ohio and Georgia, where they won or nearly tied (pending runoff), they underperformed relative to fellow non-Trump candidates by significant margins.'

Can you believe it? Standard engine in that “great eight,” the Audi A8L, is now a V-6.The smaller block is supercharged and powers the oversized Audi sedan virtually equal to the level of performance of the previous engine, the 4.2-liter V-8.

Interestingly, there is no fuel-mileage gain with the V-6. The 3.0T carries an EPA estimate of 28 miles per gallon on the highway; that is the same as the rating for the 4.2 V-8. That’s a very decent mpg rating for a cruiser that weighs more than 4,300 pounds. Base price on the 2013 model is $78,500, compared with $84,700 for the model last fall. Sticker price on the new one was $88,595.
