Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

The Audi A8 is available with a wide range of powerful engines but, however you spec it, it will be expensive to buy or lease and suffer from heavy depreciation.

The pick of the range is the 3.0-litre V6 diesel with Audi's quattro four-wheel-drive system, but business users might be tempted to wait for the petrol-electric hybrid A8, which will go on sale in the UK in 2013. This will be able to run on electric power alone for a few miles, making short zero-emission journeys feasible, and helping to its low 147g/km CO2 emissions that bring low tax liabilities.

Every A8 comes with a long list of standard equipment, and Audi lets you personalise your car with a range of high-tech options, including night-vision assist, internet connectivity and all-LED headlights.
