Audi 2003 A8 Technical Features

4
Introduction
The new Audi A8 is designed to replace its
predecessor of the same name which achieved
a total production figure of 105,092 since its
introduction in June 1994. This was the first
standard saloon with aluminium body and
epitomised a new philosophy in the luxury
vehicle sector.
The weight-saving Audi Space Frame ASF
represented a major breakthrough in terms of
enhanced vehicle dynamics, whilst at the same
time solving the problem of increasing weight.
Introduction
This body concept was further perfected in
the Audi A2 and the design of the Audi A8 ´03
reflects the experience gained from both
projects.
The aim when developing the Audi A8 ´03 was
not merely to surpass its predecessor in
terms of technical features and details.
