All-new exec unveiled with world-beating self-drive tech
On sale in September; prices likely to start at around £70,000
AUDI is claiming class-leading autonomous features and new levels of efficiency with its latest A8, which has been revealed ahead of its public debut at this autumn’s Frankfurt Motor Show.
The new limousine is the most hi-tech vehicle ever offered by the Ingolstadt brand, which is targeting customers of the Mercedes S-Class and BMW 7 Series.
The A8 is 37mm longer than the outgoing model, in both standard form and long-wheelbase A8 L configuration. The wheelbase is slightly longer, too, but the car is very slightly narrower than the old A8.
Audi’s new design language is introduced in the exterior styling, with a more muscular look and a front grille with multiple horizontal lines to make the car look wider
