Audi never disappoints with the interior, always have great features and finish, rarely will you ever find any cheap plastic. I’ve got a 7 year old A4 estate and everything works just as it was brand new. Theres no rattling or bits coming loose, everything solidly put together.
Great features and finish is different from the quality of the the parts. Audi has always been last in interior in terms of looks behind Mercedes and bmw.

Glider 123 American industry... that’s the problem with Americans. You guys think the world revolves around you. This car may be quite a bit smaller than Suburban, but that doesn’t make it a midsize SUV in pretty much every non-USA country. Just like cars like Avalon and Impala might be a lot smaller than cars like Rolls Royce Phantom and Bentley Flying Spur, but that doesn’t mean Impala and Avalon aren’t full size just because there’s cars that are a lot bigger. Audi Q8 is a full size SUV if you don’t live in a country that eats McDonalds for breakfast, Burger King for lunch, and KFC for dinner everyday your whole life. Americans make me laugh,
So according to your personal estimate, only 10 % of those cars will spend their time somewhere in Germany, Sweden, Poland, Austria, Norway, Australia, Japan etc.
Hey Doug! Thanks for the video. You guys in North America are so lucky, that you dont get the annoying OPF filter that doesnt do this car justice in terms of sound. Other than that I'm always amazed how agile this big SUV is around the corner. This over Urus all day.

Those fingerprints ... In 20 years someones gonna see this and say: Remember back then when they thought touch screens were cool while you try to read through the grease coming from your sausage fingers...
I wonder if they used the same turbos in the RSQ8 and the Urus. If they did, it's a simple ECU reflash to unlock stupid amounts of horsepower. Even beyond the 640HP the Lamborghini is rated at. Audi always severely under-tunes their engines
Well the engine is identical, but Lamborghini made their own tweeks and bits. I doubt they have different turbos,but I heard they replaced cylinder heads and stuff like that. RS7 was already tuned to 900+ hp, so its not even a question IF anymore, its only WHEN these days.
Agree! This SUV clearly handles better than most sport cars. It’s the fastest SUV in the world around the Nürburgring!! If Doug is gonna score handling, then maybe he should take it to a track. Now I know his “Doug Scores” are crap!

10:15 the way doug says, “navigation system destination entry” sounded like he was speaking in 5/4 time over a nu-punk groove at a smoky cafe in baltimore.
Owners be like: “Look at me, I have an 140k ‘Full Options’ RSQ8!” 15:00 Casual observer spots two blank buttons in the booth and goes: “no you have not...looks like you’ve cheaped out, lolz”
I see one of these ever so often in the downtown area of my city. I saw it parked in front of the building I work one winter evening and it looked awesome with a layer of snow on it. Didn't know what it was at first so I knew I needed to take a closer look. Then I saw it a few months later during the day in the sun and seen it driving around sometimes. Definitely one of the best SUV's out there.
Nice review Doug....and you’re one of the few commentators to point out how unbelievably quiet the interior is. It has a huge impact on your perception of comfort and luxury, not to mention it makes the stereo system sound so much better!
I dislike that trend, it's dumb to put all the controls on the screen, it's good to code the software to use the screens for more, but the buttons and dials actually make a car look prettier, more sophisticated, like how planes have multiple buttons and stuff
Doug: go check out cars and bids(with a different car than the one being reviewed) Me: watches next video Also Doug: reviews than different car that the one being reviewed on the last episode when talking about cars and bids. Me: lol. This ain’t a coincidence
‘There’s room for something in between the regular Q8 and RSQ8’, no crap Doug, it’s called the SQ8 and they sell it, same V8 without a tune, SUV to buy:)
It's doubtful the previous owners will have A skipped the service intervals and B ever pushed the engine anywhere near its performance, most of the Revs will be at the traffic lights or impressing mates in the driveway.

Hahahaha good one 😂👌
Underrated comment. 😂😂
Holy shit, this is so underrated
Noice
Dusty piano black 😱 It's a beast of a car. They look enormous here in the UK and Doug casually calls it mid-size....
Wow this Audi Q8 looks like a tank
a real monster on the street
Correction please!!
It's a Rsq8!!😊
it's not tht large though
16:13 It just me or does Doug look like Glenn Quagmire here? 🤣🤣🤣
Giggity
that chin
Well, now I'll never unsee that. Damn.
Needs a Hawaiin shirt & a cap though...
OMG clean the screens!!! The fingerprints are real. My OCD is going crazy.
The RSQ8 is seriously my favorite car ever, i want one so bad
Same!! I'm obsessed with it. There's something about this car that just feels right, idk how to explain it but basically yeah, it is what it is. I'd genuinely pick this one over the Urus.
10:15 the way doug says, “navigation system destination entry” sounded like he was speaking in 5/4 time over a nu-punk groove at a smoky cafe in baltimore.
Love how Americans consider q8 a "mid size" suv 😂
Matej Zavacký yeah lmao. A q5 is a small SUV here while it is mid size in europe
Q8 is actually not that large, I have been in one and it was just the right size 👍🏼
A real bisexual petrol-head take it easy pal
@A real bisexual petrol-head Calm down my man
This Murica! Everything’s biiiig, like truuucks. Have you ever seen a Ford F-350 with some dualies?! Dodge and Chevy make em that big too!
Doug's the type of guy to cook corndogs with a car heater
Lol I hope Doug sees this
You deserve a perfect Doug score for that
I saw one yesterday....it was nice...I have a Q8 and now I want one of these!
Doug the type of guy to put a snorkel and mask on when watching Finding Nemo
If this is "Mid Size SUV" as a European I would like to see how a Big SUV looks like
Something like a Chevy Suburban, i guess...
We had one as a rental and it is huuuge, three rows plus a bigger trunk than the Q8.
The Audi Q7, Mercedes GLS, and BMW X7 are all available in Europe dude don't act like you've never seen a bigger SUV.
@@yahstino ye but the Q8 is huge aswell that's what he is talking about
have you seen a tahoe before? that full size, european like small cars, americans like big cars
@@nail9602 not bigger then tahoe
420 on the miles to empty
and
69 on the doug score
wow doug
with how goofy doug's comment section is, i'd love to see a "comment of the day" segment at the end of the video!!!!
2030: Hoovie buys the cheapest RSQ8 in America and the Car Wizard does engine out repair/maintenance.
😂
RIP left handed people on that writing pad 😂💀
or all the right handed people in the UK xD
Your a genius I'll have to import mine from the uk lol
genozid?
speaking for my fellow lefties: dont worry, its not that hard haha
I've gotten the timing on skipping the carsandbids ads down cold.
lolol same
I really font mind the ads since there are some cool cars listed on his website
Yep, about 25 seconds it is.
Owners be like: “Look at me, I have an 140k ‘Full Options’ RSQ8!”
15:00 Casual observer spots two blank buttons in the booth and goes: “no you have not...looks like you’ve cheaped out, lolz”
I'd take the RSQ8 in a heartbeat. xD
Love it. I'll buy it in 3 years when it's $60K lol.
Will probably be about 80-90 in 3 years.
Oh yeah sure . When it’s out of warranty you mean ? Have fun with that maintenance buddy
@@omb5722 maybe @Jordan Stevens works on his own vehicles.
Om B warranty is 4 years or 50k miles so you’ll still be 👌🏼
@@omb5722 Huh? Doesn't warranty start from the date you purchase? :P
Doug the type of guy to close the fridge with his hip
Wait... that isn’t normal?
@@johnyacoub nah everybody closes their DOOR with their hip not the fridge
@@bourisb24yearsago11 I close everything with my hip, like cabinet drawers.
But like, who opens stuff with their ass cheeks tho 😳
@@axltitude3053 oh my comment got deleted or something like that
I close your mom
I see one of these ever so often in the downtown area of my city. I saw it parked in front of the building I work one winter evening and it looked awesome with a layer of snow on it. Didn't know what it was at first so I knew I needed to take a closer look. Then I saw it a few months later during the day in the sun and seen it driving around sometimes. Definitely one of the best SUV's out there.
The dust sitting on the dash is amazing. Does it come with a special cloth to clean every half an hour?
Ironically it does
@@fernandomadrona5278 Welp guess u wont be driving in style just because of "the dash"
Those screen will date very quickly, plus you wipe them you scratch them up.
@@smallk6453 screen cleaning solutions has been existing for decades.
Nice review Doug....and you’re one of the few commentators to point out how unbelievably quiet the interior is. It has a huge impact on your perception of comfort and luxury, not to mention it makes the stereo system sound so much better!
This is my new favorite Lamborghini Urus model.
Beautiful car.. I have the 2020 Q8 SLine Premium Plus..Super happy with my Q8…
Doug: *gives the RSQ8 a Dougscore of 69*
Me: Nice.
Andrew Seifert it had 420 miles till empty as well
Nice!
Logan Edwards - that's for MAKING HANKY PANKY FAST in the rear seat while someone else DRIVES YOU...
Nice
Something is wrong. Doug's THISS was awfully short
Same thing I was thinking
Is Doug losing his lisp?
I love how filthy the touch screen are 😂😂😂
Doug bbn is getting lazy
Cannot even wipe down his covid prints
I dislike that trend, it's dumb to put all the controls on the screen, it's good to code the software to use the screens for more, but the buttons and dials actually make a car look prettier, more sophisticated, like how planes have multiple buttons and stuff
I own a Q8, and my screen is left with fingerprints the exact same way lol, I still love the touchscreen display though
StinkyTofu all of his videos were recorded a couple months ago back before and in the beginning of covid
6:09 he went into master yoda mode speaking like a true gremlin
**Urus Lite**
One of the best looking Audi SUV EVER!!!
Totaly agree!
fact
I think that the 2014 Audi Q5 looked the best of them. But this looks great too.
It’s a Low-cost urus
@@Engineering_Rebel Agree, but this is just great looking car by far
Doug: go check out cars and bids(with a different car than the one being reviewed)
Me: watches next video
Also Doug: reviews than different car that the one being reviewed on the last episode when talking about cars and bids.
Me: lol. This ain’t a coincidence
Than than than than than. Please learn this word.
grantyells always hatin
‘There’s room for something in between the regular Q8 and RSQ8’, no crap Doug, it’s called the SQ8 and they sell it, same V8 without a tune, SUV to buy:)
Imagine being the third owner of this thing and you need a $10k engine out service.
It's doubtful the previous owners will have A skipped the service intervals and B ever pushed the engine anywhere near its performance, most of the Revs will be at the traffic lights or impressing mates in the driveway.
Only a fool buys a 'bargain' used Audi as the 3rd+ owner. These fast Audi's are for leasing, using and throwing back to the finance company after 3 years.
@@Benjamin-sn5cw buying a used audi is no more foolish than leasing a new one every 3 years lol. In fact, I guarantee you spend more money in the long run with leasing.
@@Benjamin-sn5cw Only fools lease.
Never buy a 5+ year german car, poor build quality will only cost you more then what u paid 4 it .
Doug: RSQ8 is a bargain Urus
Me: a used and slightly damaged Urus is a bargain Urus
Yea but slightly damaged is gonna cost...
I prefer the RS Q8 than the Urus
This over the Urus and tune it.
@@davidbressano sure, but you dont HAVE to repair it.
@@disco5119 but who so?
I bet you could get this rig into the 700hp zone with just a tune
Exactly my thoughts.I was thinking APR Tune
780hp with a modified Intake by HGP and a tune ;) 962hp with slighlty modified original turbos
Check out BTM Turbos 2020 RS7 with this engine...982hp with modded stock Turbos. 60-125mph in 4,9 secs
Cars & Bids, Cars & Bids, Cars & Bids.... alright Doug, we get it! Does it have to be on every upload??
I would love to meet the person who tows 7500 lbs with their rsq8
I would, just to test the full capability of the car for myself.
That would be me then.
Elmar Kessler if you do, post a video, that would be entertaining to see imo
Is it possible that someone buying a RSQ8 would also have a Wakesetter or Air Nautique? I think it is.
I would tow a boat with it. Why not?
Can’t wait to see cars with 30” rims stock
THISSS.....is a masterpiece
Of course it is.. its a German car.
Doug, the kinda guy that would put his finger print on a clean infotainment screen.
