On the inside, the A8 L facelift is similar to the outgoing model. The dashboard gets retractable AC vents. The centre of the dashboard boasts twin screens – one for navigation and media and the other for the climate control and drive modes. Other changes include new seat upholstery and rear entertainment screens. 

Like every other Volkswagen, Skoda, Audi and Porsche model, the A8 L will be offered as a petrol-only model in the Indian market. The refreshed A8 L is expected to pack the same powertrain as before. The outgoing Audi A8 comes with a 3.0L turbo V6 petrol engine which produces 340PS of power and 500Nm of torque. It comes mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission and 4-wheel-drive.
