Available on the market for quite some time now, the A8 will receive a complete redesign next year. The 2017 Audi A8 will be the first car to be designed by Audi’s new chief designer, so we expect to see quite a few changes. With this, Audi said that their cars are no longer going to be so similar to each other and in fact, all of them will receive their own unique look. Hopefully this will happen, and finally, the German carmaker will give distinguishing looks to their cars across the lineup. While a bit overdue at this point, we are glad they finally took this decision. The new A8 will be based on the same MLB Evo platform as the latest Q7. However, in the A8 the platform will use more exquisite materials such as aluminum and carbon fiber. The result should be a 4 to 6% lighter car than before with a lot more structural rigidity.


This should help them deliver a much better driving experience in every way, and it might finally allow them to compete with Mercedes regarding comfort and quietness. However, until the new car is released in the upcoming months, we can’t say much else about this. We do know that the price will go up now that the A6 will become a more premium car. This move has been expected for some time, especially since the A8 was one of the cheaper cars in its class.
