Used 2023 Audi A8 Sedan Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

Audi offers the 2023 A8 in a single, nicely equipped trim level called the L 55 TFSI Quattro. The "L" is for the long-wheelbase body style, the "55 TFSI" represents the turbocharged mild hybrid 3.0-liter V6 (335 horsepower, 369 lb-ft) and eight-speed automatic transmission, and the "Quattro" signifies the standard all-wheel-drive system.

Which A8 trim does Edmunds recommend?

Audi offers its flagship sedan in a single A8 L 55 TFSI Quattro trim level and with four primary option packages in addition to paint, trim and wheel selections. We think the Comfort Plus package and the Executive package are the worthiest extra-cost upgrades.
