Find your perfect A8

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

Given the A8's luxury brief, it's perhaps not surprising that even this entry-level trim comes very well equipped. Leather seats (heated in the front), a powered bootlid, adaptive cruise control, four-zone climate control, and even a head-up display are included as standard. You also get four-wheel drive and air suspension.

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.
