In the superhero blockbuster ‘Peter Parker’, played by Tom Holland, is seen being chauffeured around in the new Audi A8 L. The scene allows fans a first look of the front and side design of the new car. In addition, moviegoers also get a demo of new innovations such as highly automated driving in traffic jams demonstrated in the movie by driver ‘Happy Hogan’ (Jon Favreau) who takes his hands off the steering wheel allowing the car to turn all on its own showcasing how the A8 takes over the task of driving when the Audi AI traffic jam pilot function is turned on.
