Our spy photographers have captured another glimpse of the facelifted Audi A8, which will likely wear a 2014MY moniker when it goes on sale next year. As is the case with most Audi mid-life cycle updates, the A8 won’t change that much, be that in terms of styling or under the sheet-metal.
In fact, the exterior revisions will be rather modest, limited to a tweaked front grille, more modern head- and tail-lamp fixtures, and possibly changes to the bumper and mirror designs, along with a fresh assortment of exterior colors and alloy wheel designs.
Inside, we hear that Audi will revise the A8’s instrument panel, update the infotainment systems and improve the car’s standard comfort and technology features so it can better compete with Mercedes-Benz’s all-new S-Class W222, until Ingolstadt presents its new generation of the A8 in 2016 or 2017.
On the engine front, Audi engineers will likely tweak some of the existing gasoline and diesel powerplants, while some modifications on the suspension bits are to be expected.
