New Audi A8

Road Tests | about 1 year ago

With a wealth of luxury SUVs, four door supercars and high speed coupes all tempting buyers away from the £60k executive saloon, Audi have got to make sure their brand new top of the range A8 is absolutely amazing. Jonny finds out if the big Audi’s wealth of techonology, from handwriting recognition to a satellite navigation system that uses Google Maps, is enough to keep the car relevant.

New Audi A8 is tagged with fifth, gear, fifth gear, jonny, smith, Audi, A8, new, saloon, luxury, executive, road, test, france, south, Google, maps and technology. Select a tag (fifth, for example) to find everything on FiveFWD about the subject.

About Jonny's statement in the Audi A8 road test, that 90% of the population are right handed. What about the 33.9% of us driving in the right side of the road? (here i mean left side) Great show, keep it up. Kiss Vicki for me, she's so cute.. Morten
