Q8 on diesel fuel

After a while, a diesel version of the Audi Q8 may appear in our country. So far, only a gasoline powertrain is available for the new product. Unfortunately, it is still unclear what characteristics the new engine will have. Auto experts were quick to draw certain conclusions based on the available data.
As you know, every car sold in Russia must strictly comply with a document called OTTS (Vehicle Type Approval). All car parameters are specified here, down to the list of available equipment. After reviewing the OTS, you can learn all about the engine range and which gearboxes you plan to install on certain cars.
It is important that all this information is publicly available, anyone can review this data and draw their own conclusions. So, some experts noticed the changes made to the Q8 model's OTC. The additions to the document include a power unit with an index of 45 TDI (249 hp engine, which, with a volume of 3.0 liters, is capable of providing 600 Nm). It is also known that it will be aggregated with an automatic transmission (8 steps). As they say, a similar engine is installed on the Q7, experts believe that this fact will reduce the price somewhat and attract buyers.
As noted earlier, so far only gasoline-powered cars are represented in our country, it is important that now only one 55 TFSI power unit (3.0 liters and 333 hp) is available to customers. Despite the fact that Russians traditionally prefer gasoline-powered cars, the expansion of the engine range should have a positive impact on sales.
The Q8 is an expensive premium crossover, with a starting price exceeding 5 million rubles. Given this, any downward fluctuation in value will lead to new customers for dealers. Naturally, it is currently unknown how much the new product will cost, but if the marketers of the German brand continue to adhere to the previous practice, diesel will be about 10% cheaper.
The paradox is that in Germany itself, car manufacturers are gradually abandoning fuel-efficient diesel, relying on the development of hybrid technologies. Russia is somewhat different from European countries in this regard, and the popularity of an economical diesel engine is only growing in our country. It remains to be hoped that one day our country will follow European practice. Taking care of the environment is important right now, and the importance of this issue will only increase in the future. It is possible that after a few years, Audi will begin to mass-supply hybrids based on diesel engines to our country. Many players waste time searching for working mirrors and links.
