THERE’S no better way to show off your wealth than with a very large, feature-packed luxury sedan – the longer the wheelbase the better.
Big premium limos, such as the Audi A8, BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class, might not have the same cache they did in the 1990s, but they act as each brand’s respective flagship model and are often used to introduce new tech and high-end features to their model ranges.
Audi’s A8 has played third fiddle in the sales race to its two key German rivals for a while now, but the all-new version ushers in the latest on-board and powertrain tech, and combined with a more reasonable opening price, it is the company’s best chance yet to prove its mettle in the low-volume segment.
