The 2015 Audi S8: before you buy
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2015 Audi S8 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before buying the 2015 Audi S8, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
What to check on the S8
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
Reading the spec sheet
Under the hood: the 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo and all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
Fuel use is rated 11.9 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 36 litres. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $20.83. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,100 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
What to expect from the S8
As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The EPA measures its luggage space at 425 litres, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Rent it for a week first
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent first, buy later: a week with the S8 answers the big questions.
What it costs to run
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Narrowing it down
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Within the 2015 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
