  • This is the 2021 Audi Q8 Premium Plus with the S-Line Plus and S-Line Styling packages. It's Audi's top of the line SUV next to the SQ8 and RSQ8 and it's loaded with luxury and technology. This one is especially great because it has the Executive Package that is available of Q8. Sadly, since this is only the Premium Plus, you miss out on things like a heads-up-display, air suspension, and the 23-speaker B&O sound system, but that doesn't make it any less amazing. I'm going to be going over the Audi Q8 Premium Plus and filling you in on it's tech, luxury and drivability, then I'll let you know how I feel regarding it's hefty price tag. Enjoy the video!

    Solid, thorough review. One of the better I've seen. Well done! Worth watching! Any chance you'd reply with comments on a few things: I am personally trying to decide between the loaded Prestige version of the Q8 vs SQ8. That adjustable air suspension and 4 wheel steering is a must for me in either case. With the SQ8 I'd likely add the Sport Package too. I like the extra mpg of the Q8, and I wonder if the seats of the SQ8 being sportier if they are as luxurious as those in this Q8. That luxurious, quiet interior appeals to me greatly, and apparently this twin turbo v6, though not as powerful as the v8 in the SQ8, is still quite peppy. The one thing I wish I could do with either, but apparently I cannot, is have the option of smaller wheel/thicker rubber 21" or even 20" wheels, instead of the larger wheel/thinner rubber 22" wheels that is apparently mandated with these if you opt for the very beautiful black optics/s-line package. It is still supposed to be an suv after all. I'd have already bought one if it wasn't for the wheel issue. I still might, but have been hesitating. What a great vehicle though. Thanks again for the excellent review.
    As for the comments, I'd welcome any input on what I've said above, but specifically, do you have any experience or an opinion on whether going the SQ8 route sacrifices a little of the luxury comfort of the leather seats in the Q8? How do you think either the AWD Q8 or SQ8 would handle snowstormy weather and roads/highways during such storms, generally but also in comparison to some of the 4WD full size suv's out there? I know both the Q8 and SQ8 shift power forward and back as needed, but do both shift power right and left in both front and rear, and if so, how is that done? I ask because the right/left adjustment I imagine would help with turns, especially on dry roads, and it might also help me decide if I need to get the Sport Package available on the SQ8 with its added rear Electronic ltd slip differential. I'm wondering if that might be overkill, nice to have but not necessary. Have you driven both the Q8 and SQ8, if so do you have any comparative thoughts? Either way, thanks. And I'll be forwarding this review on to a few people.
    Oh, on a side note, you gave good insight into the rear seat head and leg room, but failed to mention how tall you were. That would have helped me the viewer judge a little better. I'm 6' 2 1/2" tall for instance.

    Great review, the Q8 for me is the SQ8, stealth, performance, cost (compared to the RSQ8) better range of internal colour options and quads pipes!! Thank you

    You can actually use Siri by pressing and holding the virtual assistant button on the steering wheel

      You know, since this was made nearly 4 months ago, I can't exactly remember, but I'm almost positive you can use it to activate Siri or Google Assistant. (Depending on the phone that's connected.)

    There is a way to make the Audi logo and all the other trim pieces black. I just did it. It cost $900.

    And have you had any problems with it I’ve read some horror stories about Accelerator lag and various over issues with the Q8 ???

      Keep it in sport mode around the city and there is no issues . Comfort in Normal mode does have noticeable lag that can lead to dangerous situations.

      The acceleration lag was fixed with a recall update. Happened to my 2019 Q8 and once the update was performed, the lag went away.

      They fixed the acceleration lag. I just got a Q8 and it doesn’t have any acceleration lag.

    Deflate flat tire? So you can fit it in a spare tire spot!? They have to be same size (wheel in whole) and width is not the same.. So just put it in the trunk and up to tire shop
