    Audi S8 2021

    Audi S8 2021

    FROM
    $158,950

    The 2021 Audi S8 range of configurations is currently priced from $158,950.

    Our most recent review of the 2021 Audi S8 resulted in a score of 7.8 out of 10 for that particular example.

    Carsguide Contributing journalist Peter Anderson had this to say at the time: The S8's existence is a source of joy for me because it's not a huge SUV. Yes, it's a huge sedan but it's a reminder that the technological flagship is alive and well, at least in Germany. And the important thing about these cars is the way the toys filter down through the rest of the range. That used to take years but we're seeing this cool stuff a lot more quickly, right down to the A1.

    Audi S8 2021 FAQs

    Audi RS8 - Will we ever see an ultimate performance version of the A8?

    (They did do this)

    While a one-off RS8 prototype of the previous-generation (D4 series) A8 was created in 2013, it never went into production, as we understand there just wasn't enough demand for that sort of high-performance internal-combustion engined limousine.

    Tesla's successful Model S, on the other hand, has demonstrated the viability of an electrically powered large-sedan flagship, and so with Audi going down that path with the help of Porsche with its e-tron GT series, it is unlikely that we will see anything racier than an S8.

    We hope this helps.
