Audi's flagship sedan has been completely renewed, with a brand new look and newer technology.

The Audi A8 has been updated in 2022, and the company's flagship sedan has received a new look and new technology.

The fourth-generation luxury car was launched in 2017 and therefore began to show its age, but Audi has solved this problem and hopes that these changes will "consolidate its position as a technological pioneer in the luxury car field."

Three versions are on sale, the ordinary A8 has added the long wheelbase A8L and the performance-focused S8.

Then there are four trim levels, called Sport, S Line, Black Edition and Vorsprung, all with all-wheel drive and eight-speed automatic transmission as standard.

Other standard equipment includes adaptive air suspension, comfortable seats with leather upholstery, 12.3-inch virtual cockpit digital dial system, wireless charging, dual touch screen infotainment and adaptive cruise control.

Sports models are equipped with 18-inch five-spoke alloy wheels and LED headlights, while the A8L models with this decoration are equipped with heated front and rear seats, four-zone air conditioning and a rear control unit with a 5.7-inch display.

Upgrade to the S Line model, which adds a sporty body shape, 20-inch alloy wheels, matrix LED headlights, sound-proof double-glazing, etc. At the same time, the Black Edition is equipped with black 20-inch alloy wheels, various bright black exterior parts and unique rear lights.

The top-spec Vorsprung models are equipped with 21-inch alloy wheels, all-wheel steering, panoramic glass roof, ventilated front seats with massage function, extended leather bag, 17-speaker B&O sound system and extensive driver assistance technology.

Each is equipped with gasoline and diesel engines, each with a 3.0-liter V6 engine, while the TFSI e plug-in hybrid car pairs a gasoline version with an electric motor.

Choose S8 and you will get a 563bhp 4.0-liter V8 gasoline engine under the hood. Standard equipment includes 20-inch alloy wheels, all-wheel drive with sports differential, upgraded B&O sound system and virtual cockpit.

S8 also offers a black version and Vorsprung equipment upgrades.

The A8 with diesel engine starts at 74,985 pounds, and the A8L starts at 78,985 pounds. The S8 starts at £102,610, and the hybrid pricing has not yet been determined. Orders are now open, and deliveries will begin in March 2022.
