Celebrating Audi’s 100th anniversary year, the new Audi A8 flagship sedan will be unveiled at the Audi Pavilion as the focus point of ‘The Art of Progress’ exhibition.

In explaining the logic behind this move, Rupert Stadler, Chairman of the Board of Management of Audi AG said: “Our claim “Vorsprung durch Technik” also embraces design, which is one of the outstanding elements of the Audi signature. And as top design has now emerged as an acknowledged art form, we see the bridge between art and architecture as a logical step in advancing our brand.”

Expected in the new A8 line-up are V6 and V8 petrol engines, diesels and a new hybrid. There is even rumoured to be a new high-performance model.
