Audi has unveiled its flagship luxury sedan, the A8, at the first Audi Summit in Barcelona. Audi has made the sedan one of a kind with the new camera-linked adaptive suspension system. The new A8 sedan will use cameras to predict the road ahead and adjust the suspension for a better ride. The fourth-generation Audi A8 will go on sale globally this October. India will get the car in 2018.

All the engines in the Audi A8 have been thoroughly revised to eke out more efficiency without sacrificing the power aspect
The Audi A8 L is over 123mm longer than the standard long-wheelbase car. The most likely candidate to come to India, then
