I've owned a Q8, an SQ8 and an RSQ8 (as well as their sister, the Porsche Cayenne Turbo Coupe)... The Q8 is fine at highway speeds but the lag from go is awful and almost dangerously so...especially if you're trying to turn and merge into cross traffic...the fear of being t-boned because the thing just won't move, was enough for me to get rid of it...The SQ8 is a real beast...a 500 hp V8 with and amazing sound...I couldn't imagine the RSQ8 was that much better. Then I got the Porsche...and while it was a step above the SQ8 In performance, the Audi had better tech and was more reliable. (the Porsche had TWO major breakdowns). So I finally got the RSQ8...and while it is WAY better than the Porsche...I would say that it is mildly better than the SQ8...And while I LOVE the RSQ8...If I had to do it all over again...I would have just gotten the SQ8 and saved myself a LOT of money...
It's a beaut! I just wish I could get the fully loaded Prestige but with the thicker rubber 21" wheels instead of the 22" or 23" wheels. If it wasn't too expensive, and the brakes didn't need to be changed, I'd even do that after market, if that was possible.
Trying to decide between a Q8 and an SQ8. Haven't had a chance to drive them back-to-back. Is the power feel dramatically different between the two? I currently drive an S5 as a daily, so I love the sound and power, but need a bit more space and love the Q8 lineup.
I have the Q8 and I can tell you. You will love the SQ8. I love my Q8 but coming from a BMW M5. I miss the power. SQ8 is not an M5 but I think the SQ8 will be satisfy the itch for speed and power. Reason I switched from a M5 to a Q8 is because I love the way the Audi Q8 looks like. Let me know which one you get.
You won't go very far in terms of publicity by lowering down people who are looking at the sq8 and basically telling them without telling them that they're poor and cant afford the rsq8 coz they can easily afford the 140,000 sq8. You're much confused!
Would you buy the Audi SQ8 over the competition? Let me know!

Nice presentation, straightforward. As an owner of an SQ8 I relate to the commentary between a Q8, and the RSQ8.
I just got mine.. best car I’ve ever purchased!
Can’t wait, someone is taking care of mine for me right now lol.
I agree comfort and power… I always liked the bmw X5M competition but I understand the ride will shake your dentures out.
Jokes on you I cant even aford an A3
Hahaha I believe in you! One day you will
Maybe
But never stupid enough to spend the money on a crap German fall apart asap so you have to replace
jokes on you i don't have a penny. I'm poor af.
Nice video! One qestion: does this car has auto hold function?
I don't think so. Our Audi A7 does not have it, little strange because in the past Mercedes/BMW cars i've had, have had it.
Yep

Nice review! I like the subtle humour
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Good job 👍🏼
Does it have that stop start stuff. Hate that feature
Very good presentation for QS8
Appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
I got mine used for 60k... had 20k miles on it
Just found for 72k with 6k miles
It's a beaut! I just wish I could get the fully loaded Prestige but with the thicker rubber 21" wheels instead of the 22" or 23" wheels. If it wasn't too expensive, and the brakes didn't need to be changed, I'd even do that after market, if that was possible.
I agree completely but in the end it's still very expensive 😅
Loll true
Not the peasant blockers 💀💀💀😂

Is the RSQ8 worth it..if money were no object?
How reliable is this engine?
It’s a good solid unit
My favorite luxury sport utility vehicle.
Doesnt make sense to pay the extra 30k for the rsq8. They use the same engine.
it does have remote start
im pretty sure it is lock-unlock-lock
I love my sq8
great video!! my dream cars lol
The RSQ8 was faster than the Urus on the nurburgring. The Lamborghini just has the status of being a Lamborghini
I will choice a sQ8 than rsQ8
👍

So for only $7k you can go up to an RSQ8? I'm sorry, but that is a no brainer.
Haha where did you hear you can upgrade to an rsq8 for 7 grand you pelican.
Would you purchase the Audi A8
