The Adler Standard 8 is a car model that the Adler automobile company brought out in 1928. The classic construction with rigid axles and loft bed frame essentially corresponded to that of the Standard 6 model, which appeared a year earlier . The rear-wheel drive car, also known as 15/70 hp, had an 8-cylinder engine.

In 1931 the Standard 8 appeared with a more powerful engine (15/80 hp). A total of 1,720 pieces of both models were produced by 1933.

In 1933 the improved successor model eight-cylinder was brought onto the market, which - like the smaller models Favorit 2U and Standard 6 3U - had a low frame with front independent wheel suspension and a four-speed gearbox. This model was built until 1934.
