  • I've always been a fan of Audi for this one aspect, the attention to detail on build quality is impressive, even on small things that wouldn't typically get the attention on other cars.

    This was a home run from a production standpoint. This should convince Audi that they need you as a regular reviewer in the SW US. Other YT’ers are amateurs compared to this.

    Just a heads up on the Audis with air suspension, they have a jacking mode that lets the suspension droop fully otherwise they can get damaged. You'll find videos of people not doing it on the RS6 and the bottom of the bag can pop out the wishbones

    Nice to see that a 7 year old Q5 is still comparable, interior feature wise with similar lighting and cheese cupboards in this Q8 e-Tron. Just much smaller more like a 5 door hot hatch. The interior design of this Q8 e_Tron has IMO some fancy schmancy attractive modern styling features. Thank you Sarah ,for the miles of hard work in all of your productions and builds.You are such an exceptional narrator and damn fine entertainer.

And yes, totally agree with Sarah, the build quality, attention to detail, performance and overall styling of the Vorsprung durch Technik vehicles is truly awesome. In my humble opinion the best of the best from Germany!

    Thoughts:
    1. Audi! Nice. I hope they'll finally realize, that they should have sent you other vehicles for review, especially high performance RS and S models. After all you have everything to properly assess and appreciate them - garage with a lift, testing grounds, and passion for cars.
    2. Still waiting for an EV that will make "The Jetsons" sounds or Dr Zoidberg's signature woop-woop-woop.
    3. Tech data spread over the screen makes my eyes look sideways.
    4. Funny thing, when Audi makes a high performance SUV they always end up with a hot hatch, just a big one.
    5. Enjoyed the review and completely agree with you about the looks. 👍

    A bit surprising it did not have that typical EV torque shove - even my humble Renault Zoe commuter-bubble has it; never lost a stop-light drag race so far even when the other car looks to be much more powerful. That never gets old 😁 So far, the winter has not made a huge difference to my EV-experience other than it is much nicer than in my ICE-car.

    A very thorough review. Personally, I find the available torque (for passing and merging) to be more important than off the line torque. One issue I have with ICE Audi is the amount of labor to service and repair engine components. It seems EV in general have the advantage. I too love the interior looks and tech.

    The way VWAG designs things is just *chef's kiss*. People bitch about how they are unreliable or money pits, but you can't treat them like a Toyota. There's no other company that builds A-Z like they do. All of this tech eventually trickles down to the Jetta, Golf, Polo etc. You don't get that from other brands.
