No badge is gold enough in China.

The Audi A8L is the most popular executive sled in China, outselling the stretched variants of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7-Series with ease. Price starts at a steep 871.000 yuan and ends at an even steeper 2.64 million yuan, and that is without the salary for the chauffeur.

The top-of-the-range W12 is powered by a 6.3 liter W12 petrol engine, good for 500hp and 628nm. Unlimited top speed is 278 kilometer per hour and 0-100 is gone in 4.4 seconds. Chinese car buyers don’t want no limiters so they are usually deactivated at the Audi dealer.
