What makes it iconic
The A8 that pioneered full LED headlights in a production car. The D4's aluminum Space Frame was 40% lighter than an equivalent steel structure.
History
The D4 A8 was the first production car with all-LED headlights — no halogen or xenon anywhere. The S8 Plus, with 605 hp from its twin-turbo V8, could hit 189 mph.
