Introduction

Offering a host of standard luxury appointments, a strong V-8 powerplant, and standard quattro four-wheel drive, the A8 represented the pinnacle of Audi engineering. The second-generation A8 was introduced in 2004, utilizing the next-generation Audi Space Frame and even more advanced technology. For 2008, Audi has updated the A8 by improving the vehicle's suspension, steering, soundproofing, and technological offerings of their flagship model.
