2022 Audi A8 vs. 2022 Jaguar F-Type
The 2022 Jaguar F-Type is a stunning coupe with outrageous power, exotic looks and world class handling. But what happens when it goes up against the 2022 Audi A8, a stately car which has received acclaim for its regal interior, otherworldly power and refined riding experience?
Design & Style
The Audi A8 is the type of car driven by CEOs and heads of state. It has a conservative yet commanding presence with a hybrid plugin option. A trapezoidal style grille can be seen in front, and the body is elongated and elegantly decorated with lines that are crisp. Inside passengers will have access to 3 displays where they will be surrounded by gorgeous leather, carbon fiber, aluminum and wooden trim. It can seat up to 5 people.
The Jaguar F-Type is sporty, and aside from a coupe it can also be purchased as a convertible. It has a menacing appearance with pronounced air intakes, LED illumination, bulbous back fenders and sleek, aerodynamic curves. The frame sits on twenty inch wheels and it can hold up to 2 passengers. The seats provide excellent back support and there is plenty of space for luggage.
Technology & Safety
Every Jaguar F-Type comes with blind area monitoring, emergency automated brakes, activated lane control and parking sensors. The problem is that the coupe variant has obscured rearward vision thanks to its roofline. Luxuries within its cabin include a ten inch touch display, powered seats that can be adjusted six ways, panoramic roof and the choice of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
The Audi A8 is equipped with every safety feature found on the Jag, minus the obstructed rear vision. It can automatically recognize traffic signs and has emergency automatic brakes, parking sensors, automated high beams, multiple airbags and traffic jam assistance. Luxuries within its cabin include the choice of Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, Valetta leather seats that provide back massages, 4 zone climate control, panoramic sunroof and a sound system from Bang & Olufsen.
Performance
The A8 is one of the most powerful cars offered by Audi. Those that purchase the S8 version will get a V8, 4 liter engine that can generate an incredible 563 horsepower, with the ability to blast from zero to sixty in 3.8 seconds. Those that purchase the Jaguar F-Type will get a V8, 5 liter engine that can generate 444 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in 4.4 seconds.
The Bottom Line
The Audi A8 outclasses the Jaguar F-Type in almost every way. It seats twice as many passengers, has better safety credentials and is far more fuel efficient, which makes it the winner.
