Powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four engine mated to an electric motor, the front wheel drive A8 can hit 62 mpg in 7.7 seconds. Additionally, the A8 can reach 62 mph using only electricity. At low speeds — under 37 mph — the A8 hybrid provides up to 1.86 miles of pure electric power.


Like many hybrids today, the A8 hybrid provides three different driving modes: EV, D for normal, and S for sportier acceleration.


No word yet on whether the A8 hybrid will make it to the US when it begins production in 2012.
