Thinking of buying the 2022 Audi A8?
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2022 Audi A8 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before you buy the 2022 Audi A8, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
A buyer's checks
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. 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.
Engine and fuel
Its 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo hybrid drives through an 8-speed automatic. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. Four-wheel drive helps on rough ground and deep snow; on dry roads it behaves like any other vehicle.
The combined figure, 10.6 L/100 km, means roughly 32 litres for 300 km. In energy, every 100 km costs about $16.43 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,750 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Living with the A8
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. The EPA lists 368 litres for luggage, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the A8 for a week and see how it fits your life. Rent the A8 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Within the 2022 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Running costs
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.43 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
