Why is the Audi A8's air suspension so important for the car's performance?

I recently bought an Audi A8 and noticed that it has an air suspension system. I'm not sure what the purpose of this is and if it's important for the car's performance. Can someone explain this to me?

Hi Erica, the air suspension system is crucial for the Audi A8's performance because it allows for a smoother and more controlled ride. The system uses air springs and shock absorbers to adjust the car's ride height and provide better handling and stability. Without it, the car would be more prone to body roll and discomfort for the passengers.
