The Phaeton.

Exemplary quietness and enormous reserves of power were the key demands made in the development of the Phaeton's range of engines. This major challenge has been met to perfection by all five of the engine variants: the powerful W12 and the lively V8, the compact V6 and the economical V6 TDI diesel - the first uper class engine which meets the EURO 5 norm (fuel consumption: 9.4 - 14,5 litres per 100 km; CO2 emission: 248 - 348 g/km)**.

The Phaeton offers maximum comfort down to the smallest detail. With the "Coming home" function, for example. The area around the Phaeton can be illuminated for a period of up to four minutes using the remote control or by entering a setting on the infotainment system.

The Phaeton provides the driver with as many as 150 different communication, information and entertainment functions. The complete infotainment system is of course fully computer-controlled. Its logical layout makes it highly intuitive and so very user-friendly.

Complete protection is something all the Phaeton's occupants can rely on. Its construction, featuring the use of 16 different metals and special plastics, offers the very best protection in terms of stability and crash safety, and unmatched levels of torsional rigidity.
