With a twin-turbocharged V-8 quietly toiling away under the hood, the S8 can effortlessly blast you and three others to high speeds. And when the going gets twisty, Audi’s big four-door can gobble pavement at an eye-opening pace. Based on the more mellow A8 luxury sedan, the S8 receives a performance suspension, upgraded brakes, and a punchier powertrain, but its exterior styling barely whispers “high-performance”—which makes it a stealth bomber for the road. Inside, the S8 offers just as much space and as many creature comforts as rivals such as the BMW 7-series and the Mercedes-Benz S-class, including massaging front and rear seats, the latest in infotainment features, high-quality materials, and excellent fit and finish.
What’s New for 2020?

Fuel Economy
As with many mid-size luxury sedans, the 2020 Audi A6 isn’t a fuel economy standout, but the addition of a thriftier engine helps things this year. We give it 5 out of 10 here.
The base turbo-4 version of the A6, new for 2020, manages an impressive 24 mpg city, 32 highway, 27 combined, while the V-6 model makes only 22/29/24 mpg. The latter includes a mild-hybrid system that aids the smoothness of the stop/start programming.
The A6 Allroad’s tall stance and wagon body dent fuel economy down to 20/26/22 mpg. The S6 drops further to 18/28/22 mpg.
Premium fuel is required no matter the engine, so expect an increase in costs at the pump accordingly.
