What’s 2009′s Top Luxury Car? NADAguides.com Picks the Audi A8 L
for vehicle pricing and information, picked the Audi A8 L as the No.1 choice
in its ranking of the Top 5 Luxury Cars for 2009.
The editors of the Web site said the Audi A8 L topped its list “due to its
ultra-luxurious cabin, complete with leather and wood inlays, and plenty of
extra legroom for rear passengers thanks to its extended wheelbase.” They
praised the A8 with the 450-hp 6.0-liter W12 engine and Audi quattro for being
extremely responsive on the road.
“This car is a must-have for car buyers who want passion, prestige and
power in one perfectly appointed package,” the editors summarized.
“What’s particularly gratifying about this honor is the compliment
NADAguides.com paid to the exceptional driving capabilities of the A8 L, in
addition to its world-class luxury appointments,” said
executive vice president, Audi of America. “The A8 embodies Audi’s drive to
combine progressive features with exhilarating performance behind the wheel.”
Editors at NADAguides.com also paid tribute to the A8 L’s 14-speaker Bose
surround sound system with Audiopilot noise compensation. That system includes
a microphone that measures background noise and adjusts the radio volume
accordingly, “resulting in a more balanced sound,” the editors wrote. The 2009
Audi A8 L bested the Jaguar XF Supercharged, Mercedes-Benz S550, Hyundai
Genesis and the Bentley Arnage.
