In the era of the smartphone, you can't really hide anything of interest from being revealed ahead of schedule, be that a new laptop, a mobile device or in this case a car.
Audi has promised that starting in the next couple of years, their cars will stop looking the same as each other. However, that doesn't apply to the A8. A facelift for the flagship sedan is on the way, and the prototype we already photos of in our spyshots section has been spotted on two occasions already.
Although the car is heavily camouflaged, we don't expect that much to change. New cosmetic elements will be limited in number, since the A8 is not a volume car and has already got all the Audi bells and whistles on it.
Mercedes Benz has already revealed its S-Class contender for 2013, and BMW isn't far behind , with a new 7 Series in the early stages of development. Audi's answer to increased competition might be to go one-up and launch an A9 model to sit atop of this car.
