The model
Read full Audi A8 review
The A8’s blend of performance, comfort and serenity are wedded to a beautifully built, practical and well-equipped interior. In fact, by a whisker, it beats the Mercedes S-Class, which shows just how good to drive and be driven in the A8 is.
The trim
S line models look more aggressive than Sports, thanks to an exterior styling pack, privacy glass and 20in rather than 18in wheels. What's more, you get clever matrix LED headlights that can shield oncoming traffic from being dazzled while maintaining main beam illumination.
The engine
This 3.0-litre V6 diesel is smooth and quiet, if not quite as refined as the 400d engine in the rival Mercedes S Class. It isn't as powerful as that engine, either, although performance is more than adequate and there's a healthy swell of acceleration available from low revs.
