Thinking of buying the 2023 Audi S8?

No 2023 Audi S8 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Here is the 2023 Audi S8 for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

Before you sign for the S8

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

The numbers in plain words

Power comes from the 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo hybrid, driving 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. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

It is rated 13.4 L/100 km combined: about 40 litres every 300 km. In money, 1,000 km costs about $207.70 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,550 a year for 15,000 miles.

Inside and out

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who rents the S8

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.

A longer test drive

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If the S8 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.

Money matters

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $207.70 at our price setting. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Year and trim

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2023 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
