Full Control
Although the A8’s new chassis is good-there’s ample body control and isolation with the car’s standard air springs and adjustable dampers-the active-suspension models we drove weren’t yet fully baked. The optional Audi Intelligence (AI) active suspension, one component of a suite of intelligent features, includes an electric motor at each corner capable of raising or lowering that wheel via a torsion bar linked to the suspension. In effect, there are two springs on each wheel of A8s equipped with the active suspension: an air spring and a torsion bar coupling the wheel carrier to the electric motor. The motors and torsion bars eliminate the need for traditional anti-roll bars by enabling roll control as well as managing pitch and dive.
The active setup’s most promising feature, however, is the ability to float the A8’s body over road irregularities. The AI system scans the road ahead with a forward-looking camera (Audi calls the function Preview) and turns that data into wheel motions that follow the road’s shape. Before the front wheels encounter an elevated bump, the body is raised to provide the additional suspension travel needed to absorb the imperfection. Then, as the car passes over, the suspension is extended to trace the road’s topography. Dips and single-wheel events are handled similarly, with the wheels following the terrain while the body remains isolated. The system provides 2.0 inches of lift and 2.4 inches of drop at each wheel, enough to make speed bumps and manhole covers virtually irrelevant. Closed-course demonstrations of the Preview technology were convincing, but we didn’t get to experience it on the open road. Even though the active suspension was fitted to two test cars and performed as promised to limit roll, pitch, and dive, the Preview function wasn’t enabled on those cars. Audi’s Drive Select system is standard and offers three driving modes (Auto, Comfort, and Dynamic) and also integrates control of the AI suspension on cars so equipped.
The standard suspension is no slouch itself when it comes to comfort and control. Wheel sizes will start at 19 inches, with options up to 21 inches available. We didn’t sample the optional torque-vectoring Sport rear differential, which no doubt would have improved the handling. Still, we weaved the A8 up a road more appropriate for a Mazda Miata and were impressed with the big Audi’s grip and manners, although no one is pretending a car this large has any business attacking roads that tight. Steering feel, despite efforts to improve its feedback, remains as it is in most other Audis: laser-sight precise, but mostly numb. If Audi could elevate its steering system’s feedback to match its accuracy, it would possess the magic bullet sought by energetic pilots of every executive sedan.
The company has figured out that a sedan this long benefits from a tighter turning radius and so offers dynamic all-wheel steering as an option. The system operates over a wide latitude depending on vehicle speed and other factors, behaving as if the steering ratio varies between 9.5:1 and 17.0:1. It’s the inclusion of the rear wheels in the business of turning that makes the real difference. Below 37 mph, the rear wheels turn out of phase with the fronts at an angle of up to 5 degrees, making the A8’s wheelbase feel shorter and shrinking its turning circle by 3.3 feet relative to cars without the system. Above that speed, rear-wheel steering angle is in phase with the fronts and reduced to a maximum of 2 degrees. A cone-smashing parking-lot demonstration proved that you’ll either opt for the four-wheel steering or you’ll do a lot more sawing at the wheel in tight spaces.
Hit the Lot
Mercifully, the A8 is as well suited to parking-lot duty as Kylie Jenner is to Instagram. The remainder of its AI features are designed to enable low-speed maneuvers in tight spots as well as parking in lots, on the street, or in a garage. Parking Pilot and Remote Parking Pilot enable autonomous parallel or perpendicular parking, although this system, too, wasn’t quite ready for prime time during our demos. During one parallel-parking attempt, we stopped the car manually before it executed autonomous removal of its driver’s-side mirror on a concrete abutment. It was then unable (or unwilling) to extract itself from the parking spot into which it had wedged itself-the automotive equivalent of a toddler’s sit-down protest.

I'm thinking to sell my house to purchase this car.
hahahahahahahahhahaha
XDDD
Same
It's better 😂
The best thing i want it's when I'm inside a MY car and it's raining outside
U can live in it
yea! sell house to buy this and who the fuck will pay maintainance bill?
Wonderful car .. time to get rich ,
Ashraf Qudah; LOL that's exactly what I was thinking. "Now it´s worth to get rich" LOL
Keskinkilicnr1 I hope I and you will get rich as soon as possible to buy such things 😃😃😃
Ashraf Qudah; :D Thank you brother. We will get rich.
Keskinkilicnr1 If you got rich and I didn't, please don't forget me 😂😂 buy me an Audi and gimme million dollar 😜😜
In my dreams 😂
Wow I don't know how I've managed to drive for 10 years without those features. It's almost impossible to believe but I was steering on my own!
You are crazy
Go back to 1870 where you belong, then.
No, not Hijri. 😂
What the fuck?what you did was not driving,this is driving...
it’s also slow ... I’m sure other cars would be honking the fuck out of me .
Sami Jospeh, I'm quite sure that any car would not be able to compensate for how slow your brain is.

FSXNOOB - GᗩᗰᕮS & ᗰOᖇᕮ they are so much behind Tesla. Even the Porsche boss admited they can't keep with the pace Tesla is investing.
oh they can, but they don't want to make the same debts xD and Tesla stays far behind this what the seller wants ;) btw if all car owning people of the world would drive a Tesla, they couldn't cause there aren't enough minerals for it to do so - fuck yeah "so much behind Tesla" hmmm yeah totally
So now the audi A8 is a lowrider xD
Yassine El idrissi exactly xDD
Audi a8 has long been a hydraulic suspension. Nothing new
Someone's never owned a low car if you think this is a "lowrider" lol
Yassine El idrissi range rover too
Henke oh okay thankyou , I wasn't aware your the one I replied to
0:16 ah yes, just raise the window slowly. That will protect the passenger
i was looking for this coment loool
its against smoke and fire.
SIETZE HEK but if anything hit the window would be shattered? That would just push broken glass out
@@xnopyt13 nothing hits the window because its closing with a delay, just like you said. In that time the windows are closed nothing flying around anymore
SIETZE HEK if the door panel is bent enough the window will break?
so much electronics that can go wrong :)
...and if you repair any car, you should know, that almost never the electronics go wrong. Almost always the under engineered (=less material, cheaper, built-in lifetime) mechanics go wrong.
N B well if you look at ~2010 luxury cars you'll see that all these electronics indeed go wrong after warranty is over
im an aprentice mechanic and so far i have only repaired electronic stuff in the cars...
+just a random guy For example?
gabor moczik about 6 lights, the electric-engine to a window and the electric-engine to a window wiper and the connection on 1 trailer, but it might just be coincidental who knows?
wow this car has many great features. loved it
I would not be able to afford that even if I sold my whole family
Piotr Larysz 😂😂😂
Haha
Piotr Larysz who'd buy your family,anyway?
black market selling organs lmao
YOU CAN BUY IF YOU THINK NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
Not sure what protection rolling up the windows that slow would provide in a collusion. They actually might be broken. Causing more possible injury from being cut.
Jay Trock lmaooo trueee
said real enginieer
these tipe of windows cant cut you, they're made like this so they cant injure you
Jay Trock
In an accident, there often is a lot of sharp plastic flying through the air, and those windows are surprisingly solid.
Also, the windows don't roll all the way up (if they are up, they even roll down an inch or so) so the emergency services can communicate with the driver.
Sthut up if you don t know nothig about car!all class now are made to break in small piece that don t cut nobody
70k for the 2019 model in 2020 not so bad
I like it!!,the active suspension technology
The beeps are smooth and satisfying
The first clip reminds me of that old viral video where a momma panda gets startled by her sneezing cub!
It would be great if new transporter movie use this car!!
YES!
yeaaa
Instead they went with spiderman, suspicious!
I thought this car will be slower, how about the A7 sport back (newer model)
I'm driving a vw and I'm loving it, but this is my real dream car!!!
What a beautiful car!
Cool! I'll buy one of these in five years when they're worth $10,000
nonono, not 10000dallaz, 30000dallaz

amazing A8 ,4 rings 4 ever :))
turning lights are awesome
Woow
in the near future will be no pleasure to drive a car
Paul Daniel Matahala If them selfdriving cars take over I swear I will start protesting and relling 😂
Where the fuxk it's said that you can't drive the car like a normal one, they are simply showing the features that 99% of the cars don't have, that the technology they use is advancing, you know that there is sport mode where you can turn off esp and such...don't be so ignorant
Yep and im 24 at least I'll be dead before fossil fuels run out but if self driving cars become a huge thing before I die im taking out a loan and spending it on a Porsche 944 and keeping my golf gti I'll either drive my self or not drive at all
Not really, like horses, cars with lvl 3 and lower autonomy will still exist but for fun and in special areas where people who love this old technology whould have the chance to enjoy it, just like we do with horses today, we don't ride a horse to go to work but still we can ride them for fun.
It will be if you will buy a Supra
Yooo this car is amazing!!
This is incredible and amazing

Wow. I’m wowed. The rear of the looks amazing! The front though looks like an Audi A4 and to me needs a redesign to make it stand out a little more.
i hope they have a good protection on remote access, because it can easily get hacked.
No this is not a car, this is a smart auto robot, no passion no sound no human reaction, the central electronic unit make decisions for the driver
none of your business, You are a moron, and you dont know what mean pure Drive Passion, Drive mean: I make the car run, not a thousand of electric units, Ok my poor child, go now to play with your playstation !!!
xaxaaxaxxa
Boldozas, I Agree! Too much useless technology nowadays.
As it should. This car is targeted towards people who want driving to be as comfortable and easy as possible.
boldozas you obviously have no clue about the car industry if you dont realize that this car is for business people who want the most comfortable ride.
Such a dope car
Wow!!! Audi is incredible!!!
What if you put it into auto-park mode and it accelerates into oncoming traffic?
/\aron it wouldn’t
Its not made in china
It’s an Audi, severely doubt that would happen
It probbably has sensors for that kind of stupidity
OMG
Woow what a car! Best daily ever
Satisfying video
my dream car.

So... An A8-L?
А Лада Вазовская так сможет ? лет так через 1000 !!!
Can't wait to buy one.. in 10-15yrs.
after 20 years i'll be able to purchase it :)
Intelligent Drive for people that can't drive.
zZiL341yRj736 just because you can’t afford this car , don’t hate hahahahaha
Amenadiel he means to say these gimmicks are for people who can't drive.Well he likes the car as he is here.Good but not a driver's car

Intelligent drive for lazy people. Lol
If you are old this is the best for you
Wife: Can you please drive off my mom to the grocery store?

I love this video
All this tech would make the Q7 amazing ❤️
U don't need a driver's license for this car.....it's for people who can't drive😂😂😂😂
Exactly!
Farai More no, you pretty much do need one for this.
Built for disabled new generation tablet peoples. 😁 Good bye driving pleasure 👎
that's why I'm keeping my 1987 audi 80 for life. At least it's as basic as a bicycle. And the ride joy is superb.
50% of the people WITH a driving license cannot drive anyway so a car like this is what we need because people are retarded
Who’s watching today?

Beautiful car💪👍
The thing it does with tail lights is so satisfying
What is the purpose of the elevated entry?
The car is too low, so it gets elevated for you to sit on the chair confortably.
easier and safety. when in age, its hard to sit in low cars
An elevated entry.
Easier to get in/out.
To get your fat Gucci covered ass in and out easier. :)))

AMAZING CAR
I want to buy a car...not a robot !!!
Great WALx It won't. Self driving cars will never be a thing. The masses are starting to wake up. No one will put up with this bullshit (that no one asked for btw) anymore. So just drop that idea already. Manual free driving is here to stay.
For women
I love when it takes off and just disappear in the sky
Woww!!
i am impressed
Audi is the best car
Ha ha ha
The jg guy said no-one ever.
i agree
Audi is a brand...
I loved all Audi cars but if they broke down or its something wrong with it, be prepared to pay up to 5000€ for the repair
What if someone hacks your car audi?
Inteligent car ♥
That car... Breathes!
For people saying ''So much technology .. so many problems .. the repair bill blah blah'':
- It's an Audi
- It has warranty
- People buying a car like this have money to repair it IF anything goes wrong
I have it and it has no pleasure and not even a single piece of warranty against hacking
Warranties are carefully worded to cover as few common failures as possible.
Most people buying a car like this new won't keep it once things start going wrong; They'll dump it, & buy another new car. Meanwhile the reliability of new cars will continue to decline because why build reliable stuff when a market saturated with unreliable stuff results in more sales?
I like nice cars, but most vehicles made today are flimsy junk with flashy features.
I _really_ like the A8 (A8 L, ideally) but it's no exception. Great features, terrible cost of ownership. Doesn't mean I wouldn't want one if price were no object, but that's exactly the problem, isn't it?

I guess they figured out this wouldn't contribute to the car flipping over?
wpgtriniman
You know 2 ton limousines don't griproll, right?! lol
Flip this car? I wish you good luck.
of course it does, it titls on the opposite side, it will make it easier to roll over.
Flip this car? I wish you good luck.
Dude, you people are way to stupid to be living in 2017... have you ever heard of a truck? lorry? or speed? a freaking Smart car speeding with 100 miles per hour becomes a very dangerous object that can cut in half an Audi A8, of course it can flip it, that's easy, especially when it tilts by itself
Firstly a truck will outright smash the car to pieces, same with a lorry. The front of trucks and lorries are flat, so there is a large area that hits another car. That large area will NOT allow the car to roll over, instead it will just push it further and further away.
"a freaking Smart car speeding with 100 miles per hour becomes a very dangerous object that can cut in half an Audi A8, of course if can flip it"
Firstly - if you can get a Smart car to go 100mph, then you deserve a beer.
Secondly - You said the Audi will be cut in-half, and then you say it will flip it? You are contradicting yourself here. You have to choose what you are going to go on now - cutting a car in half, or flipping it.
Another thing. Obviously a speeding car can EASILY flip a car. But a car driving 60kph and knocking into the side of the Audi A8 will simply not flip it.
Don't call me stupid. You're the stupid one here. Clearly you do not know the laws of physics.
gut zum hacken🙄

Too much non sense
hell yeah
Still don't like it..
I want durability and efficiency
Toyota
toyota is shit
U don't know shit about cars
Toyota quality has slipped big time. Modern Toyota’s are riding on the Toyota coattails from the 80s.
Buy a prius. The rest of us will drive AUDI.
Ultimate!
I want that taillight bar and those wheels!
I still think a Tesla is better
Peter Saburov on what planet do you live? Tesla is not even close to that.
HAHAHAHAHA
In terms of car ride, driving dinamics and comfort, Tesla is not even on the same league as an Audi, Merc or BMW. Tesla is just a good electric vehicle carrying a lot of hype.
Señor Bob 👍
You can't compare a Tesla to a smoky german piece of shit.
All those things are rubbish. Wat does word car means - personal transportation vehicle and it shoul be available to masses. Those systems are basic german over enginerin they cost more than they save. Complete nonsense. All those gadgets are unusefull. Statistic shows that safety actualy descreases with advanced systems. The driver and his hers skills is what it counts. Untill there will be massive self driving cars driver is one who operates car. For me it is easier and faster to park myself and all those gadgets that warns you or help you steer the car are no usefull.
'basic german over enginerin' - If people want to pay money for features that they want in a car, you can bet there is someone out there that is going to do it for them.
'cost more than they save' - Well, yeah.
'Statistic shows that safety actualy descreases with advanced systems. The driver and his hers skills is what it counts.' - And what happens if the driver is young and inexperienced, or the older person that can't focus as well. I would love to see these statistics.
'all those gadgets that warns you or help you steer the car are no usefull.' - Let's say you are about to drive past this car in the second lane. The driver of the Audi then passes out (or falls asleep, or whatever you can come up with), you would be glad that the car (Audi in this case) would be able to keep itself in its lane and possibly protect your life (as the driver of a vehicle that is passing the Audi). These 'gadgets' are very useful, and could save thousands of lives.
lol have you ever driven a car with technology like this?
all those parking assistances help a huge amount, especially in big SUV's
Those systems combined is making this car very desirable. This is probably one of the best cars I've seen in a while. Now just start finding out how you can afford one for yourselves :)
My dream car :)
Nothing new or revolutionary.
Monteiro you have no clue about cars if you say something like that....
Old news, i agree, it's just that audi tries to catch up with tesla, nissan leaf and other hi-tech companies. Of course they will catch up some time in the near future, but for now they just follow. I like the fact that they call it the first lvl 3...lol...really now? I know they can do better, i just wait for e-tron EV to come, because this will have lvl 4 capabilities...
Just for Fun But the quality hie they do it is way better than Nissan and Tesla... Even though Tesla is better than most american cars, the stitches are often off, or you see the glue comin out of the back Lights
@just for fun. you say that only just for fun right? ;) Please find out how much patents has AUDI in the automative driving and how much has Tesla... Tesla has only the technical that Audi vor 3 years had. Tesla killed his customer with his high Tech and let his customer testing his system for him. Please tell me which high Tech has Tesla? One Screen in the car. that's all. Problems with quality. Problems with reliability. Check the Ranking from Consumer report in the USA how reliable is Audi and how reliable ist Tesla. Faster not equal better. Its a car not a mobile phone.
What other car has the feature where it will raise on one side if suspecting a crash.
No..nothing new or amazing but the same stuff again. They need to let these useless tricks and focus on autonomous cars and EV's
Just for Fun its the first car on the world with level 3 auton. driving....
Not really, lvl 3 is already in tesla S, X and soon 3, plus Nissan leaf will be too lvl 3 with lvl 4 capabilities and more will come out in 2018 with lvl 3. What whould be amazing is to see lvl 4 autonomy but we are not there yet they need 3-5 years for real lvl 4. As for real lvl 5 the fully autonomous cars we need to wait at least 10 years.
Just for Fun no lvl 3 is not in the tesla s - thats bullshit
derHERRderVIERringe then it's not in a8 either
Just for Fun you know nothing jon snow
The car is great. I had it for testing for one and a half day and i KINDA liked it. The thing is that if you would compare this Audi to an 5 year old BMW at the suspensions, horse power, the BMW would win. If you have problems like while driving and you look at your phone you feel sick, well, it's your unlucky day. The car has a lot of great features like video calls if you're in the back seat, TV mode, again, if you're in the back seat, and those cool LED lights with over 300 programable colours. The car seats have massage mode, and believe me, it feels so good. While i was driving and activated the massage mode it made me feel sleepy.
Another thing is that the steering wheel is very thin.
It doesn't support Apple's CarPlay.
( or it didn't work for me ).
All the screens have LCD displayes, but the touchscreen controller has an OLED screen.
The auto pilot is separately bought and if you live in countries where the auto pilot is illegal or isn't supported than say good bye.
One more thing, the driver seet screen supports force touch
Great! It's just great!
Dear Audi CEO! Place more engineer to the green technology and do not care about this kind of almost useless technologies. Thank you!
P.s.: The running lights is still like a cheap, low quality 1$ chinesee plastic toy with led light. Pfff... Far away from luxury style.
You won't find many cars in that pricerange with that quality and sophistication even if you disagree on some design decision. You seem to disagree so name competitors that are better.
Prius guy spotted!
I like U're comment, cause It shows someting about probably U feel yourself in a higher level above the EV supporter. I don't care Ure traditional view. It is good for pensioners. One more thing U forget Tesla Roadster, Honda NSX, Some Japan high leve Hybrid like Lexus. U have a very tight view of the world. Sorry mate. :)
Actually, your first comment shows that you belong to those kinds of people that criticize things without reason, just to criticize :)
It's good for you that you drive a Prius or something. But it's not for everyone. Electric cars are not for everyone. Even a Tesla is not for everyone. I prefer a classic fuel powered Audi over a Prius any day. That's my opinion and I don't care what anybody thinks. Drive what you like, simple as that.
