Ok, Looks like the D5 is on for 2016 ...
http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/Secret-...-about-the-D5/
Wow, a new Mk2 Phaeton and a Q8 and an A9 that will platform share.
New engines ...
Audi A8 4.0-litre V8 TFSI 460bhp
Audi A8 6.3-litre W12 565bhp.
Diesels in the new 2016 Audi A8 are:
Audi A8 3.0-litre V6 TDI 272bhp -> I'm not sure that the existing 3.0 TDI isn't generating this output anyway ... It does 0 to 60 in 6.1 seconds with supposedly 249bhp
Audi A8 4.0-litre V8 TDI 408bhp
Audi A8 5.0-litre V10 TDI 500bhp --> wow ... probably 700lb of torque with that one ... like a Diesel S8 ...
Also big lols for this one 326bhp 3.0-litre TFSI V6 to power the hybrid.
Suggestions that that interior will be based on this. Just the first picture, the rest are a test mule with a D4 body slapped on top.

Interesting putting the starter button on the steering wheel, could be a better idea. Also no pop up MMI screen, I suspect that will be carried over. Nothing like being stuck in traffic and watching a movie, does pass the time nicely.
