Later this year the Hybrid trim will be available, followed by the high performance S8 next year. The W12 features a new 6.3L 12 cylinder engine that produces 500 horsepower and 463 lb-ft of torque. A new Balao Brown interior package is now available across the model line, as well as a full leather interior package option.
