Rarely does an automobile live up to its name quite so effectively – so much in fact that the President of the Czech Republic has ordered one as his state limousine, in position of the earlier Audi A8.

A long wheelbase provides numerous rear legroom for passengers, along with a comprehensive selection of engines (including a 2.8 litre V6 petrol along with a 130PS diesel) provide lots of power.

Despite its primary function as a luxury car the Superb handles with precision, outperforming many of their rivals to the bargain. Also it even includes its own umbrella, inside a dedicated compartment.
