What does the 'quattro' system in an Audi A8 do?

I've been researching about the Audi A8 and I've come across the term 'quattro' but I'm not entirely sure what it does. Can someone explain its function in this specific car model?

Hey there Samantha! The 'quattro' system is Audi's all-wheel drive system. It distributes power among all four wheels, providing better traction and stability while driving. It's especially useful in adverse weather conditions.

Hi Samantha, the 'quattro' system is also known for improving the overall handling and performance of the Audi A8. It helps with cornering and gives the car a more balanced feel.
