Audi A8 going up hill in the snow. The carnage…..
Driving past a bunch of cars stranded on a hill near Greenbelt, MD. DC Metro Area snow storm Dec 19 – 20. Video was recorded using an iPhone, piloted vehicle is an Audi A8 4.2. -quattrovideos.com
Video Rating: 4 / 5
a8 is a boat
@sakimano Dude a used 4 year old Audi A8 is around 35-40k. Or 5-6 years from 20-30k. They get cheap fast but if you get one with a fair amount of mileage on it, they are a beauty to have and fun to drive. I own an A6 and I cant wait to get an A8.
LOL, dude I love your video. I wish I had a camera to record the same thing that happened to me on the roads of Montreal. While everyone was stuck, I was listening to LIVING ON A PRAYER from Jon Bon Jovi and driving like it was the summer of 69 hehehe, I love Quattro.
@hemroidalrampage
get a used A8 for $20,000
Only Audi..
Audi please lower your price by $80k so i can buy you.
lol the best car i ever had in the snow was my saab 900 SPG turbo, never got stuck even when my tundra did
good promo on the nissan armada lol!
@hrfbody – don’t worry – you get rain there in VA Beach. Quattro can certainly help keep you on the road in rain that would cause other cars to slide (FWD included). In the rain I can drive the A4 much more confidently (and faster) than in the Accord or minivan.
@7477238 – yeah and they don’t realize that the high center of gravity in those SUV’s means that even if they can move with the 4 wheel drive they still can’t maneuver well. That’s why unfortunately they spin into ditches etc.
Once in a steeper hill I had the same experience, only I was driving a Subaru Outback, everyone around me was stopped.. They were staring at my car in disbelief!
Vorsprung durch Technik/Advantage through technology!
get what u pay for lol
wow haha those poor people… wtf was that armada doing he could’ve gotten up!
quattro… full of win !
And this is why I own an Audi!
Nice! Quattro is pure awesomeness!
@audis4ification i hope that armada was a rear wheel drive version lol
LMAO! I know this area. Greenbelt / CP got slammed pretty good. My A4 was moving along with no issues – meanwhile all these imposter SUVs were stuck. I do have to admit I was a bit jealous of a Subie WRX that went blasting by me like it was running an FIA Rally. Guy drifted a nice turn onto the off ramp too.
Awesome video showcasing the abilities of the Quattro system. A lot of Americans think their SUVs will plow through snow, they forgot that 4×4 was really invented for off roading.
Audi A8, PRICELESS! FTW….i knew there had to be a reason why i liked that car out of all the flagship cars!
Quattro ftw, got me through some of the worst snow Richmond has seen in decades.
NICEEEE
Dude I was there during that! I was driving to va from il on leave ( navy) it got so bad that I pulled into a holiday in northern va. Stuck there for two days, I hate my car because of it, stupid Honda, purchasing 01 a8 soon
LOL owned.
