Edmunds Summary Review of the 2018 Audi A8 L 4.0T Sport quattro Sedan
Pros & Cons
- Pro:Impeccably crafted cabin
- Pro:Engines provide plenty of power with decent efficiency
- Pro:Responsive steering and cornering for a big sedan
- Pro:All-wheel drive is standard
- Con:Lacks the latest tech offered by rivals and newer Audis
- Con:Relatively small trunk
Which A8 does Edmunds recommend?
We like the 4.0T. It provides impressively quick acceleration and gets the same fuel economy as the V6. Plus, the 4.0T's exterior design flourishes also serve to spruce up the A8's rather conservative look while maintaining an impeccable taste level. Specifying the Executive Plus package (or the Executive package on 3.0T) is recommended for its helpful driver aids and extra luxury features.
Full Edmunds Review: 2018 Audi A8 Sedan
Driving
The A8 is so confidence-inspiring, it borders on sporty, with potent acceleration, strong braking and athletic handling. At the same time, it delivers appropriate levels of luxury.
Comfort
The A8 is incredibly comfortable, with a quiet and calm cabin, well-shaped seats and a smooth ride quality.
Interior
Cabin space and amenities are excellent, with a modern and austere design that is sure to please more discerning passengers. Quality is absolutely impeccable.
Utility
Utility is not the A8's forte. It's great for people, less so for their things; the trunk and small-item storage space could definitely be more generous.
Technology
The A8 has Audi's previous-generation MMI interface. It works well, but cheaper Audis have a newer, more advanced interface. There are also no USB ports (only one Audi-proprietary cable), and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto aren't available.
