Audi has unveiled updates to the 2022 A8 full-size luxury sedan.

Although the new ultra-luxury Horch model will only be sold in China, Audi has confirmed that an updated version of the A8 luxury sedan will arrive on our shores in 2022. Full specifications for the US are not yet available, but these photos of European specification cars indicate the changes expected for this flagship four-door car.

The key changes are visible in the headlights, taillights and radiator grille, the shape of which has been changed. New wheel designs and new colors are also available, although we're not sure if all five of the new available matte paint options will be offered in the US. Inside there are several additions to the trim palette and entertainment screens for rear passengers. this is a new option.

We do not expect significant changes in the A8 powertrain lineup, which should again include a 3.0-liter V-6 with 335 hp in the 55 version, a 4.0-liter V-8 with 453 hp in the 60 version, and a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 with 563 hp in the S8. The plug-in hybrid with a total capacity of 443 horsepower should also continue. And, as before, the A8 is likely to be available in the US only in the form of A8L with a long wheelbase.

Audi says that the updated A8 will not appear on the US market for some time, but when it does, we expect prices to rise slightly compared to the base price of the 2021 model: $87,545 for the A8L and $133,245 for the S8
