On the outside, Audi have redesigned the single-frame grille with broader borders and new chrome elements. The air intakes are now stacked vertically and minor additions have been done to the bumpers as well.

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. Audi India will also offer a rear-seat luxury package with a recliner and foot massager. 

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 will pack the same powertrain as before with a 48v mild-hybrid support. The 3.0L turbo petrol V6 engine produces the same 340PS of power, however, the torque output has gone up to 540Nm. It comes mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission and 4-wheel-drive.

Audi India are likely to launch the A8 L facelift in the coming weeks. It will go up against the BMW 7-Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class. The arch-rival to the A8 L, the BMW 7-Series has recently been updated globally and we expect the new 7-Series to hit our shores soon. Closer to home, Mercedes-Benz India recently launched the locally-assembled Maybach S580 and the full-import Maybach S680.
