2017 Audi A8 UNBOXING Review - Why The BMW 7 Series Has It Beat

For our latest unboxing review we bring you the 2017 Audi A8, and we want to make one thing clear: this is a brilliant full-size luxury sedan. It's biggest drawback (at the moment) is its age. The current A8 debuted back in 2010 and since then its main two German rivals, the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class, have been completely redesigned, thus showing this car's age.

But there's still a lot to like about the A8. For starters, it's powered by a fantastic 3.0-liter supercharged V6 with a total of 333 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. Our car also came very well equipped with the $6,900 Executive Package, which adds (for starters) a panoramic sunroof, top-view camera system, and head-up display. But perhaps now is the best time to buy a new A8 because dealerships will soon have to make way for its successor. Enjoy the review!
