- The Audi S8 is a fine car, but it lacks in purpose compared to its executive sedan competition.

Charlie, I hope green cars are making a comeback at a variety of price points.
You could go to a paint shop and have them paint a car green.
Dream car...love the color and interior...
Honestly, if it was just between the big 3 German entries in this segment, the A/S8 would be my personal choice purely by default. The 7 Series exterior and the S Class interior are both deal breakers for me, and I’m more personally drawn to the more restrained/conservative Audi aesthetics. Now…if we open things up to the rest of this segment, that’s a different discussion. In that case, I’d probably go for a Genesis G90 if I wanted the ultimate in comfort or, honestly, a low-to-mid tier Panamera for something with some athletic moves
What do you dislike about the S Class interior?
To be fair it is nearing the end of its life cycle.
Been driving a 2024 S8 for four months. Consensus viewpoint from other tests is the Audi matches the S class and the 7 series in luxury, (ride included) but S8 is more sporty. That is the reality...best of both worlds.
You need the more fully loaded. Predictive suspension. It’s geared towards older more mature people. Perhaps with a family. The ability to do it all. It’s understated and subtle and that’s what it’s about. Not flashy and not doing too much.
Audi is just like Volvo they have aged extremely well the design inside and out does need to change Audi does screw up like BMW or Benz did. If B&O isn't so great here in the A8 just imaging it in the refreshed MDX, Acura should have keep the ELS signature or ELS Studio in all the 2025 MDX
Acura had to cut back costs.
@@ryanb8736 not surprising then the 2025 MDX gonna cost more
After your sound system test, my pick would be an A6 or S6 instead of the A8/S8. I really like the A4 I have, but may upgrade relatively soon depending on depreciation levels.
A6 is definitely the way to go I have a 2022 nicely optioned smooth driving
I have a 2017 Audi a6 50tfsi, it is a great car, but it cannot compare to a 2024 audi s8 in every way, and of course the price
When I was training for my current job hauling cars, one of my first cars I got to load on the truck was a brand new S8. Talk about intimidating!
Bro i worked at a Maserati car dealership for 4 months. If you think that was intimidating, you had nothing on the cars I had to drive into shops every single day.
@@RetroKingOG I get that, I should clarify, I had only been loading/unloading hondas and mazdas until that point. And I had to drive the Audis onto/off of a 9 car semi truck in the middle of downtown LA. it was intimidating moving multiple 150k Audis and a 300k semi on my second week lmfao. But I understand there are much more expensive cars.
There seem to be a small handful of CA YTers that do car reviews that are of the LDS faith… MPH and now evidently, Charlie
I have this car…. Its smooth and fast! Best combo. No other car has that. Did that car have the “Predictice active suspension”? Thats what makes it butter. It’s actually smoother than the 7 series
Are you in Canada or Europe? We don’t get the chrome in the US, at least we didn’t in 2023. I have a 2023 A8 and it is quite smooth..
At the 10:18 mark, was that a LeBron James reference? 😏
People buying Audi are not looking for that Smooth ride you are describing. Audi S cars are about dinamics just like a GT car not luxurios ride, RS line is the Sport one and the regular are the luxury Maybe that is what you misunderstood about that car.
Its the worst Audi s8 test I have never seen.
It seems to me a superficial and anodyne approval
I drive a 2023 S8 and i can´t understand you point of view driving ythis car for a week
Generally people who pay this price point for their brand new luxury rides, want a vehicle that can comfortably cruise them from place to place. They don’t go for an overpowered ride that can’t be used anywhere on the road, in any normal situation!
Only the stupid waste their money on things that can’t be enjoyed.
