The upgraded Audi A8 - Even more prestige and sovereignty - the exterior design

The Audi A8 is a sedan that represents status and exudes sovereignty - thanks to the redesign, its exterior looks even more prestigious, confident and athletic. The base of the single-frame grille has become wider, and chrome-plated angles that become increasingly larger from bottom to top adorn its grille. The side air intakes are positioned more upright and have been redesigned, as have the headlights, whose lower end creates a striking contour in the outer area. All in all, the redesigned and precisely orchestrated design elements at the front clearly enhance the presence and sovereignty of the A8 and sharpen the profile of the brand's top model. The progressive character of the luxury sedan is particularly apparent in the side view. The roof dome runs flat. Stretched lines in the body emphasize the car's length, while wide wheel arches hint at the standard quattro drive system. The sill area is shaped as a fillet in all model variants, and a blade closes it off from the road. The rear is dominated by wide chrome clasps, a customizable tail light signature with digital OLEDs, and a continuous segmented light strip. The diffuser insert in the bumper is finely accentuated and redrawn with horizontal bars. In typical Audi S model fashion, the Audi S82 showcases four flow-through pipes that lie beneath a wraparound contour. They are one of its signature sporty design details.
