8
Standing still or at speed, the A8 creates
a powerful presence. Timeless Audi design
principles live on, and in fact, evolve
magnificently with the A8. It embraces
everything that makes the four rings a
symbol of progress.
The wide stance of the A8 projects prestige,
power and an indomitable spirit. Its elegant
profile includes three distinct lines that
converge to create its critically acclaimed
and sophisticated look.
The character line creates a flowing link
between the iconic front grille and the
purposeful rear, emphasizing a coupe-like
influence. The shoulder line runs just below
the windows, dividing the body panels for a
delicate tension between light and shadow
that enhances its classic proportions. The
lower dynamic line begins before the front
wheel arch and rises steadily to the rear of
the vehicle, reinforcing the notion of the A8
hugging the road.
Complementary design elements accentuate
the sculpted look of the A8. The distinguished
Singleframe ® grille has angled corners and
chrome flourishes that create contrasting details
to the sweeping hood, enhancing its stature.
The available full LED headlights add drama
to the graceful lines and further accentuate
the wide, muscular proportions of the A8.
Technologically, they represent Audi ingenuity
and progress. Aesthetically, they further
establish the A8 as the category leader.
The overall appearance of the new A8 is taut,
purposeful and powerful, tempered by a grace
and poise that appeal to anyone with a keen eye
for design and an authentic passion for driving.
