2024 Audi A8
Starting at $89.995
Highs Seriously quiet interior, legroom to spare in the rear, lively demeanor for such a large sedan.
Lows Exterior styling might be too restrained for some, competitor’s inline-six and V-8 engines offer more personality, the S8 is far more entertaining.
Verdict With its trademark subtle style inside and out, the A8 hits all the luxury sedan benchmarks at a buy-in thousands less than its German counterparts.
Overview
A stealth fighter in a sea of high-profile full-size luxury sedans, the Audi A8’s conservative yet confident personality and style are a virtue. Interior accommodations are as spacious and comfortable as its longtime sparring partners, the BMW 7-series and the Mercedes-Benz S-class, but the appointments and control layout maintain a comparably rational design and appeal. A turbocharged V-6 is the sole engine option, and while it’s not quite as quick as the rivals, its silent operation fits its stealthy mission. Extensive sound deadening measures ensure the interior is equally as hushed, ensuring the driver and passengers arrive at their destination fresh and relaxed. But the A8 is also capable of getting a little frisky when the situation arises, carrying surprising speed through gently winding roads and even dispatching tight bends with a dexterity that belies its size. Buyers seeking sharper reflexes and quicker acceleration are advised to seek out its high-performance S8 sibling, which we review separately.
What's New for 2024?
Refreshed for 2022, the 2024 Audi A8 slips into the new year with minimal updates. All A8s receive a six-month trial subscription to Audi Connect PLUS with the Audi app store; the software enables remote start from the app and integrates music, video, gaming, navigation, parking & charging, weather, and news applications into the MMI. In the styling department, Sebring Black crystal effect paint replaces Vesuvius Gray metallic.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
A8: $89,995
If you're going with Audi's flagship luxury sedan, do it right and order it with the Comfort Plus package, which includes Dual-pane acoustic glass for side windows that reduce noise, massaging front seats, heated armrests, heated outboard rear seats, a head-up display, and HD Matrix-design LED headlights. It’s also hard to argue with the Black optic plus package that plays into the stealth factor with high gloss black exterior trim, black Audi rings and badges, black brake calipers, and unique 21-inch 10-spoke design wheels. If adaptive cruise control with lane keeping, remote parking and a heated steering wheel are on your wish list you’ll need to check the box for the Executive package.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
A turbocharged 335-horsepower V-6 augmented by a 48-volt hybrid system is the sole engine option. (The sportier S8 rocks a turbocharged V-8 rated for 563 horsepower.) An eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive are standard. In our hands, the A8 dashed from zero to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds, trailing the last six-cylinder Mercedes-Benz S500 we tested by a few tenths. The Audi's engine is a smooth operator above all, thanks in part to the extensive sound-deadening measures; plus, with all 331 foot-pounds of torque available at a low 1370 rpm, you don’t need to flog the engine in normal driving to extract zippy acceleration. An adjustable air suspension and adaptive dampers are standard and, like all Audi sedans, the A8 is tuned for a brand-specific blend of athleticism and ride comfort that transcends the empirical spec sheet data.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
Copious interior space and passenger comfort is non-negotiable in the full-size luxury sedan segment, and the A8’s long wheelbase ensures that front and rear-seat passengers are well accommodated. A traditional five-passenger layout is standard, but an optional four-passenger seating package is available for well-heeled owners who plan to spend the majority of their time in the rear seat with a hired hand at the wheel. It deletes the rear center seating position and provides a pair of power-adjustable rear seats with heating, ventilation, and massage, as well as a heated foot-massage function and a pair of individual entertainment tablets. Just be aware that all that rear seat indulgence reduces the number of power adjustments for the front passenger. Likewise, the 13 cubic-foot trunk capacity is modest for a big luxury sedan.

Great work as always
This A4 AND A8 BEST MODEL OF AUDI😊
I fell in love with the 2018 A8 this interior is nice
Luxurious power. Quality
Шикарно !!! 👏🙂👍
NICE CAR
This is my dream car
The interior of this car is awesome, but since 2018 audi is following the same pattern, they have to make some upgrade in order to compete with the s class and 7 series, because their upgrades are very good
Yeah
I think we’ll have to wait ’til 2024-2025
They got too many models to improve at once
Hope so at least
I like Audi's interior layout compared to MB's gimmicky and space occupying infotainment center that looks like a huge laptop was dropped in the center as an afterthought. BMW's are so cluttered and busy looking. Audi's and Lexus dashboard are just right.
Шикардос
Good design. Better then BMW.
Of course dude❤AUDI
Germany, araba tanrısı bir ülke. Onlardan başka üst mevkisi görülmedi

Audi styling and interior is much more impressive than Mercedes-Benz or BMW. I think Audi scores higher rating here. Audi brand is often underrated and deserves the recognition for being better. Certainly among the top three car brands, hands down. Audi has been the best car brands for sometime, it's time to acknowledge this,and set the record straight. Rich people will buy an Audi before BMW, with Mercedes it's a toss up.
this is S8?
There is no WoW Factor. Features are pretty much Standard unless you want to get razzle dazzle.
😊

They have one of the most annoying commercials out there. If they are trying to sell their brand by concentrating on their headlights good luck to them. I will never buy an Audi given that advertising ploy.
Too much plastic use chrome dummies
Cool
เยอะไป😂😂😂😂😂
Garbage compared to the new 7 series line of BMW, especially the Msport i7.
