2004 Audi A8 L Review:

Audi shakes things up a little in 2004 with its flagship sedan. The A8 L now comes in only one body length. It has a 2.5-inch-longer wheelbase than the former L version. While the majority of its exterior dimensions aren’t altered, its curb weight increases 240 lbs and there are a few style changes. Inside, there's 1.5 inches less front headroom, but about an inch more rear legroom.

Standard all-wheel drive remains, giving the luxurious A8 L remarkable handling and even more importantly, safety. Audi employs some cutting-edge technology with the all-aluminum A8 L. Replacing conventional steel springs is an air suspension system with four driver-selectable settings: ride-oriented Comfort, self-adjusting Automatic, sporty Dynamic, and Lift for deep snow or unpaved surfaces.

Under the Hood

There is no questioning the A8 L’s power. It uses a 4.2-liter V8 engine that produces 330 horsepower at 6500 rpm and 317 lb-ft of torque at 3500 rpm. This strong, dependable engine is quiet and smooth, and it is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission with manual-shift capability.

The road manners of the Audi A8 L are exemplary. With electronic limited-slip front and rear differentials and the aforementioned suspension system, it feels as though you are driving over glass. In terms of safety, the A8 L has dual front airbags, front and rear side airbags, curtain side airbags, front knee airbags, antilock 4-wheel disc brakes and an antiskid system.

Standard Features, Options Packages and Style

The Audi A8 L features an exterior design that is marked by flowing, smooth surface and crisp corners. Though a luxury sedan, it has more of a sports car geometry when closely examined.

Inside, nothing is left wanting. Leather upholstery, air conditioning with dual-zone automatic climate controls, the OnStar System (navigation, roadside assistance, emergency services), a power tilt/telescoping leather-wrapped steering wheel with radio controls, cruise control, a memory system (driver seat, mirrors, steering wheel, climate controls), a Bose AM/FM radio and 6-disc CD changer, a navigation system and a trip computer are just some of the standards.

Available options include adaptive cruise control, massaging front seats, front and rear-obstacle detections systems and rear air conditioning.

All of this points to one thing: the 2004 Audi A8 L is one fine automobile.
