What is the difference between the Audi A8's active suspension and standard suspension?

I am considering purchasing an Audi A8 and I am wondering if the active suspension is worth the extra cost. What are the main differences between the two and how do they affect the driving experience?

The active suspension on the Audi A8 uses a combination of air springs and adaptive dampers to constantly adjust the ride height and stiffness, providing a smoother and more responsive ride. It also has a sport mode which allows for a more dynamic driving experience.

On the other hand, the standard suspension uses traditional coil springs and fixed dampers. While still providing a comfortable ride, it may not be as customizable or responsive as the active suspension.
