Thinking of buying the 2019 Audi A8?

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2019 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. Here is what to know about the 2019 Audi A8 before buying one.

Before you sign for the A8

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 14 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, engine and unknown or other; have those parts checked. 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.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain here is the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo hybrid with all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

Rated at 10.8 L/100 km combined, it needs around 32 litres for a 300 km round trip. In energy, every 100 km costs about $16.74 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,750 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

The A8 in everyday use

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. At 368 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Good uses for the A8

It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Drive it on your own roads

If the A8 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

The cost of driving it

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. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $16.74 in fuel.

Choosing the right one

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.

Let us know

Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2019 Audi A8 from us first.
