READ THIS:A first in Audi's history, this new generation high performance V10 engine is based on Audi's V8 FSI engines, and retains the same fundamental design principals of the V8 FSI.This engine is often, but incorrectly referred to as a derivative of the Gallardo's original 5.0 litre Lamborghini V10, which was also developed under the Volkswagen Group ownership. However, the subsequent 5.2 V10 FSI installed in the Gallardo LP560 and Audi R8 V10 is fundamentally identical to this Audi unit
that,s maravillous sound with the factory exhausts,sounds likes a F1,sounds orgasmic and nice music at the time,with gallardo engine 5.2 liter FSI naturally aspirated and 450 powerfully horsepower
lamborghini is a daughter company of audi and the gallardo has an audi engine and not the audi an gallardo engine. lamborghini is using audi technology, not the other way. the gallardo onely got this engine before they put it into the audi but it is a audi engine. also the gumpert apollo has a similar audi engine onboard, but with whay more hp (about 800hp).
@fifficus - In the last quarter of 2005, Audi introduced the second-generation S8, powered by a 450 bhp (340 kW) 5.2L V10 FSI engine derived from the 5.0 litre V10 used in the Lamborghini Gallardo. A longer stroke and wider bore increases the displacement of the engine and produces more torque at lower revs, making it more suitable for the larger and heavier Audi.
@fifficus in other words it is the gallardo engine which has minor changes to fit the audi. for example less bhp but more torque due to the weight of the s8. then again VW builds the engines for audi lambo and bugatti. so it is actuall a VW engine :)
@mattzee - posted by eugvk - The 5.2L V10 used in the current Audi S8 (D3) is derived from the original Lamborghini Gallardo 5.0L V10 engine (The current Gallardo LP560-4 has a 5.2L V10 as well, but is more heavily based on the new Audi RS6's V10).
@Humps1 Dude, all Engines built in a Gallardo are based on Audi Engines. The new 5.2 V10 in the current Gallardo LP560 is based on Audi R8's V10 which is based on Audi S6 (C6) Engine. Lamborghini does not build engines since 1998.
@mattzee - I agree the new Gallardo 5.2 is based on the torquer Audi derivate but the original Audi S8 (D3) 5.2 took the block from the Gallardo 5.0 V10. However, it's fair to say that all engines were developed by the VW Audi Group. The first car to have the VAG developed V10 5.0 was the Gallardo, the next car was the S8 with a 5.2 variant. This was deemed superior (better torque) so they tweaked it and put it in the new V10 5.2 Gallardo. Anyhow, it's a good engine what ever car it's in :-)
@mattzee yes Gallardo engine is built under Audi. The only difference is that Audi has longer stroke and wider bore with increased displacement thus providing stronger torque force under lower revs.. just the way i like:)
@mattzee not exactly, each on them has their own engines, learn more form wiki: and search for Lamborghini V10. Although it is manufactured on the same plant, tuning is different, I think proper way to say it - IT IS ALL VW
@mattzee Wrong, Audi R8 has a Gallardo Engine. Audi S8 and RS6 do not. And don't be fooled. The R8 really does have a lamborghini engine, not the other way around.
@eskimo810 im sorry i noticed this going on and i just wanna say your wrong and your right, first, not all R8's have the V10 motor, the first R8 that came out had the same 4.2 V8 as the RS4, when they came out with the V10 version thats when they used Lamborghini's V10 as Audi was developing their own, now the R8 comes with the Audi V10, not Lambo's
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
0-60 in 4.9 seconds is pretty good for a heavy car. An 03 Mustang Cobra does it in 4.5 for around $24k currently. Apples to oranges, sure, but for $90k+, why would a rich fella choose that?! I'm looking at the Dupont Registry right now and I see Vipers, 360 Modena's, 911 Turbo's, AMG Mercs, BMW M cars, Bently's, Jags, Muscle cars.. just TONS of slightly used vehicles that trump this S8. You'd have to be a CRAZY Audi fanatic to pay for this and ignore all of the other options for your money.
@xilix ur right..for money he paid for S8 he could buy some exotic car..no??
im from B&H(Europe)..but z06 can beat f430,gallardo,m6 and other..so i dont need to talk about ZR1..i like our(europen) cars but no one cant say that american cars r shit..
It doesn't have an Italian engine. This is not the Gallardo V10; it is an Audi-only development. Even if it were, the Gallardo V10 was developed under Volkswagon ownership
@yanava Definitely. A lot of reviews say that I know, but this version has a wider bore, longer stroke (so bigger overall displacement) giving it more torque at lower revs. This makes it more suitable for the monster heavyweight S8 than the Gallardo's engine would be. Check out the wiki article on Audi engines. Splitting hairs really, both are amazing!!
The S8 is still pretty damn quick considering it is a large comfortable luxury car, however I heard the 2011 Audi RS6 will be available in America? anyone know anything about that?
Well, the current Audi RS6 in saloon/sedan form was suppose to be coming to North America, but I just looked on the Audi of America website and it seems you have NO RS Audis at all!
Yeah I feel sorry for you, as I'm not American I can't really grasp the American taste of cars, some Americans seem to blindly love their American built vehicles while others admire European cars more.
In my opinion, (and this is just my opinion) is that, OVERALL European cars TEND to be better, although some American cars, regardless of their terrible built quality, horrid interiors and general lack of care and attention aren't too bad. Corvette ZR1, Ford GT and Comaro SS are amazing!
Oh thank goodness you agree, most Americans when I even hit at disliking American cars they go absolutely mental!
And yeah I love being European, especially British, cause we get Aston Martin, Jaguar, Bentley and Rolls Royce :D mind you, it's German HANDS DOWN for me, especially Audi. Audi R8 V10 = PERFECTION
I love the British! especially Clarkson, Hammond and May haha, you guys know a good car from a piece of crap one..I cannot stand american cars and japanese cars for that matter..only european cars suit me
s8 v10 = galardo engine...no engine "transplant" needed. so i asked you WHAT ARE YOU TALKIN ABOUT...but as far as i can see you are just stupid...nothing personal...no re plz thx
....you are a jackass.... #1 there was no "engine transplant" the car comes with the v10 from the factory. #2 this car is in the same class as a bmw 7serries only imagine bmw making an mtuned 7 thats what this car would compete with.
As for an m5 it is almost exactly the price point of an audi rs6 Go look that car up....twinturbo v10 560ish hp tuned (aka chipped) 700+ hp.
Please before you reply know what you are talking about.
The Gallardo is 5.0L 40 valve, this S8 is FSI 5.2L 40 valve. The only exception is the new LP560 is FSI 5.2L 40 valve... but the heads are completely different.
@kurdeundgesetzlos1 yes its true the lamborghini gallardo gots 500 horsepower and his audi s8 v10 engine from lamborghini gallardo has gots 450 horsepower
@VentoDriver the rs6 would beat the m5 any day as the rs6 is 570ish hp and the m5 is 500 ish so no real comparison plus look at some of the vids on here of them racing
completely agree with you. but the m5 of bmw was made i think in 2004 ?! and the new rs6 came out last year i think. so let's wait for the new m5 and then lets compare them.. ;)
yeah i know will be good to see and yes it was around 2004 to 2005 i think.. that the m5 was let loose but not to sure yeah they might be more sportier in some aspects but dont look anywere near as nice as an audi or very big audi fan and own a 3 series but yeah both good cars ;)
@TopSpeed23 agreed. Im undecided between the S8 and M5, only because the Audi has all wheel drive and I live in Wisconsin and it would be my daily driver. The M5 is such a beast and sounds WAY better than the S8, especially with a race exhust....nonetheless, Audi is still great
i think its the other way around the engine from the gallardo is from the S8..not sure but i think thats the way round it is lol like the R8 V8 havin the engine from the RS4
that's because audi, vw, porsche are all under the same umbrella. the gallardo uses the audi v10, not the other way around. VW also makes the w12 you see in the bentleys.
because audi and lambo are made pretty much under the same roof. I.E, VW and Bentley own eachother (vw owns them)and its the same concept with audi n lambo
The 5.2L V10 used in the current Audi S8 (D3) is derived from the original Lamborghini Gallardo 5.0L V10 engine (The current Gallardo LP560-4 has a 5.2L V10 as well, but is more heavily based on the new Audi RS6's V10). All of this component and technology sharing comes from the fact that Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. is owned by Audi AG, in which Audi, Bentley as well as other European car companies are owned by VW AG. As of Jan. 2009, Porsche owns a little over 50% of VW.
not de-tuned but different engine software, the LP-560 doesn't need a lot of torque because it is a lighter car, the S8 needs more torque and therefore the engine software is modified.
I believe you mean the Hummer.. Which you can roughly get one for 70,000 to 90,000 or a surplus one for about 50,000 with no options. The H2 is based off of the GMC Yukon, or Chevy Taho same frame..
I much enjoyed driving this car... Just the feeling of how much power was available with the slightest tap of my foot was good enough, besides, it wasn't my car and I wasn't about to fuck with it :P

@TopSpeed23 agreed. Im undecided between the S8 and M5, only because the Audi has all wheel drive and I live in Wisconsin and it would be my daily driver. The M5 is such a beast and sounds WAY better than the S8, especially with a race exhust....nonetheless, Audi is still great

What about the twin turbo v10 used in the rs6?
JoeTirone 2 years ago
What are you talking about? Audi owns Lamborghini. The engine in the S8 is actually from the Gallardo. And it sounds the same too! You tone deaf?

What would be the point of any of that?
ReSmartedMAN 2 years ago
that's because audi, vw, porsche are all under the same umbrella. the gallardo uses the audi v10, not the other way around. VW also makes the w12 you see in the bentleys.

because audi and lambo are made pretty much under the same roof. I.E, VW and Bentley own eachother (vw owns them)and its the same concept with audi n lambo

Real question. Is the V10 Gallardo engine an add-on, or was this custom? I see the V10 badge, but I've never heard of this before.
utbigpapa 2 years ago
The 5.2L V10 used in the current Audi S8 (D3) is derived from the original Lamborghini Gallardo 5.0L V10 engine (The current Gallardo LP560-4 has a 5.2L V10 as well, but is more heavily based on the new Audi RS6's V10). All of this component and technology sharing comes from the fact that Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. is owned by Audi AG, in which Audi, Bentley as well as other European car companies are owned by VW AG. As of Jan. 2009, Porsche owns a little over 50% of VW.

the V10 of this s8 is the same V10 that u get in the LP 560, only de-tuned.
norra124 2 years ago
not de-tuned but different engine software, the LP-560 doesn't need a lot of torque because it is a lighter car, the S8 needs more torque and therefore the engine software is modified.
marijntjuh18 2 years ago 2
kind of almost the same thing isn't it?
norra124 2 years ago
Its a different state of tune, gone for peak torque rather than peak horsepower.

I believe you mean the Hummer.. Which you can roughly get one for 70,000 to 90,000 or a surplus one for about 50,000 with no options. The H2 is based off of the GMC Yukon, or Chevy Taho same frame..
