The numbers

EPA rates the A8 quattro at 19 MPG in city driving and 27 MPG on the highway. The combined figure of 22 MPG blends those two use cases into one comparison number.

The car runs on gasoline and is classified as a hybrid. EPA lists 414 grams of tailpipe CO2 per mile.

What it costs to run

EPA's estimated annual fuel cost is $3,750. That is the listed yearly gasoline expense for this model under the agency's standard calculation.

Your result will depend on how much city and highway driving you do. The 19 MPG city rating points to higher fuel use in stop-and-go driving than the 27 MPG highway rating.

How it compares

Use 22 MPG combined as the A8 quattro's main yardstick against other large cars. Its 27 MPG highway figure is higher than its 19 MPG city figure, so driving mix matters when comparing it.

Shoppers focused on lower fuel use can also review fuel-efficient cars, but this page provides no other models' figures for a direct numerical matchup.

Who it suits

This car suits a buyer who wants a large car, all-wheel drive and a hybrid gasoline powertrain in one package.

It makes more sense for drivers who spend meaningful time on the highway, where its EPA rating reaches 27 MPG, than for someone focused only on city mileage.

Trade-offs

The A8 quattro combines all-wheel drive with a large-car body and a turbocharged six-cylinder engine. Those choices come with a 22 MPG combined rating and a listed annual fuel cost of $3,750.

City driving is rated at 19 MPG, below the highway figure. Tailpipe CO2 is listed at 414 grams per mile, another consideration for buyers weighing fuel use and emissions.

Verdict

The 2027 Audi A8 quattro is a large all-wheel-drive hybrid car for buyers who value its size and drivetrain more than minimizing gasoline expense. Its 22 MPG combined rating is moderate, while the $3,750 annual fuel estimate gives the running-cost trade-off a clear dollar figure. Highway trips fit its 27 MPG rating better than urban-only use. If those priorities match your driving, the A8 quattro is an option among Audi cars with these specifications.
