ABT SQ8

ABT Sportsline 2020 – Press Release CW 02

A visual statement of pure power
Complete aero package now available for 510 hp ABT SQ8

As of January 2020, the Audi SQ8 can pack an even greater punch. How come? ABT Sportsline now offers a complete aero package for the superlative SUV. Since November 2019, the Audi SQ8 can be equipped upon request with an ABT Power performance upgrade from the bavarian company. In this context, the high-tech control unit ABT Engine Control boosts the eight-cylinder 4.0 TDI from 435 hp (320 kW) to 510 hp (375 kW). At the same time, the world's largest tuner for Audi and VW vehicles has increased the maximum torque from 900 to 970 Nm. These fascinating figures also improve the sprint values: The time for the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is reduced from 4.8 to 4.6 seconds. The remarkable sporting talent of the truly gigantic SQ8 just has to be seen.

The multi-part ABT aero package is completed by the newly available ABT rear skirt insert including quad endpipes for the exhaust. Additional components include the ABT front skirt add-on and the ABT rear spoiler. All items are also available individually. ABT sport rims are available in three different versions. There is the GR model, in glossy black or matt black, the HR Aero rim in dark smoke and the HR-F rim in shadow silver. All of the above models are available in 22 inch. Those who prefer a larger rim should choose the 23-inch HR-F version, which is available in dark smoke and shadow silver. Select your preferred individual combination from these and many other visual finishing options with the ABT Configurator. Here you can visualise in 3D the effect of the aero components and alloy wheels directly on the vehicle.

The Kempten engineers also optimise further the impressive driving dynamics of such a large SUV. And thanks to the ABT Level Control (ALC), the SQ8 can be lowered in three stages, thereby giving it a lower centre of gravity. ABT Comfort Level, ABT Dynamic Level and ABT Loading Level (Coffee-Mode) are the adjustable modes. The first mode lowers the suspension by 25 mm, the second by 15 mm - based on the respective series setting of the corresponding suspension programme. In Coffee Mode the SQ8 is put at the lowest setting of all, thus bringing the vehicle a whole 65 mm lower to the ground than in the original comfort mode.

In the meantime, attractive options for the interior are also available. In addition to the almost obligatory ABT Sportsline start-stop-switch-cap and the ABT integrated entrance lights, the bavarian company now offers full carbon seat frame covers as a special highlight for the distinctive SUV from Audi.

The GM-X Stiletto encapsulates all of these elements and more, making it a worthy contender in our top ten list. Ranked at number nine, this concept car from 1964 remains a beacon of automotive ingenuity and a symbol of a bygone era that continues to inspire. A Journey Back to the Jet Age To fully appreciate the GM-X Stiletto, we must travel back to the 1950s and '60s, a time when America was captivated by the future. The jet-age was in full swing, and cars were designed with a sense of bold optimism. Under the visionary leadership of Harley Earl and Bill Mitchell, General Motors created vehicles that mimicked the sleek lines and advanced technologies of jet aircraft. The GM-X Stiletto, born in 1964, was a product of this era's boundless imagination. The Visionary Design The GM-X Stiletto was first unveiled at the 1964-1965 World’s...

Chevrolet Concept Cars: Ten Of Our Favorites

We've scoured through the history books (and our memory banks) to pick out ten of our all-time favorites.

Aventador S | The design draws inspiration from predators and aeronautics

As much as the Aventador is the car most entitled to represent the Lamborghini brand values, the Aventador S is the expression of the Lamborghini flagship par excellence, embodying the utmost synergy between design and engineering in pure Lamborghini style. The “S” has existed for 50 years The first Lamborghini S model was launched 50 years ago to represent the evolution of already revered icons. In fact, the further development of the Miura into a more improved version dates back to 1968, followed by Islero, Countach and Urraco. When the Aventador reaped this legacy and decided to surpass itself, the Aventador S was born. The design draws inspiration from predators and aeronautics The Aventador S presents pure refinement of the iconic design that remains true to the Lamborghini DNA, enhancing its mix of dynamism, refinement and aggressiveness. The sharp lines and surfaces of the front end evoke images of a shark fin, transmitting the same force and elegance when d...

1985 Audi Sport Quattro: The Group B Homologation Special

In Austria in 1980, just a year after four-wheel drive cars became eligible to compete in the WRC, Audi debuted the first Quattro rally car and forever changed the sport. Over the next half of the decade (and onwards, if you count the Pikes Peak specials), these Audis would be subjected to a period of rapid iterative evolution that led to the short-wheelbase Sport Quattro models that helped define the infamously fast and dangerous era of Group B rallying. The relatively lax nature of the Group B regulations gave rise to a number of downright ferocious cars from Audi’s competitors (most notable being Lancia and Peugeot), and while it was not the most successful nor technologically advanced of these top tier cars by the end of the Group B era, the Sport Quattro is a worthy poster child for the lot of them—being first to the punch has its advantages. The advent of the Group B class provided manufacturers with practically every leeway imaginable given they adhered to a basic s...
