Audi A8 did a magnificent job by launching its mid-term update for the A8. It gained standard LED headlamps, a more powerful twin-turbo V-8, a more efficient diesel engine and a fresh new look for 2015<\/p>\n

Audi hasn\u2019t wasted any time it brought the A8 after just a few months of the launch of the new Mercedes-Benz S-class. \u00a0Believe it or not, the brand<\/a>\u2019s trademark “Singleframe grille” has gotten smaller. The vehicle’s height has diminished, now sporting seven horizontal blades rather than eight, but it hangs over a singular lower air intake that stretches across the width of the car\u2014except for the S8, which keeps its pair of intakes. The headlights feature a new, less aggressive contour.<\/p>\n

The A8 W12 is less differentiated from lower-grade A8s \u00a0and is more important. it doesn’t receive any engine upgrades. The naturally aspirated 6.3-liter W-12 remains unchanged, still churning out 500 horsepower\u2014and in terms of torque, it can’t hold a candle to the twin-turbo 12-cylinder units from BMW and Mercedes. While the W12 continues atop the A8 hierarchy, performance enthusiasts likely will opt for the S8 anyway\u2014its 520-hp, 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8 carries over unchanged, too.<\/p>\n

Every A8, comes with all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic as standard. And all versions of the A8 can reach a governed top speed of 155 mph. We\u2019re hopeful Audi will reconsider such an odd limit when the updated model comes to market.<\/p>\n

There is not much changes that has been made on the 2015 Audi A8 apart from its updated powertrain and looks. According to Audi the trunk now is easier to load, there is an Active Lane Assist that grabs the steering wheel to correct your driving if you stepped into other lanes, and a self-parking function. Oh, and, just as has been recently added to the new S-class lineup and available in a number of BMWs for some time, the A8 will be available with a head-up display.<\/span><\/div>\n

It is expected to have the Audi A8 in United Arab Emirates<\/a> early this year with an estimated price<\/a> starting from 325,000 AED.<\/p>\n
