2011 Audi Spy Video A8

It’s only months away from its official reveal, but we have the best footage yet of the upcoming 2011 Audi A8.

Caught testing on the Nurburgring, the fully redesigned flagship sedan looks like it’s getting an evolutionary design that maintains the overall size and shape of the current model.

It will continue to use an all aluminum spaceframe chassis and standard quattro all wheel drive.

A V8 engine will continue as the standard powerplant with a W12 available as an option.

And now that both of its primary competitors are offering hybrid versions of their flagship sedans, expect Audi to deliver some kind of high mileage variation of the A8.

Look for the official debut of the 2011 Audi A8 at the 2010 Detroit Auto Show in mid January.
