How does the Audi A8's adaptive cruise control work?

I'm interested in purchasing the Audi A8 with adaptive cruise control, but I don't understand how it works. Can someone explain it to me?

The adaptive cruise control in the Audi A8 uses sensors to detect the distance between your car and the car in front of you. It then adjusts your speed accordingly to maintain a safe following distance. It's a great feature for highway driving.

I've found that the adaptive cruise control can be a little too sensitive and will often brake abruptly even when there is plenty of space between my car and the car in front of me. It's best to adjust the settings to your liking and always pay attention to the road.

I highly recommend using the adaptive cruise control in the Audi A8, especially during long trips. It can help reduce driver fatigue and improve overall safety on the road.
