Motive power in the second-generation Audi D3 S8 powertrain features a 5.2 litre all aluminium alloy 317.6 cu in Fuel Stratified Injection 40-valve 90° V10 petrol engine. 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. On this Audi-only variant, compared to the Lamborghini engine, it features a longer stroke and wider bore - which increases the displacement of the engine, and produces more torque at lower revs, making it more suitable for the larger and heavier full-sized luxury Audi saloon. It produces 444 bhp at 7,000 rpm, and 398 lb of torque at 3,500 rpm.
