I watched every Q8 e-tron video on UA-cam and thought I was very informed until I saw your video. Your specific detailed information answered a lot of my questions that were not discussed anywhere. Audi should use your video in place of the owner’s manual. I just took delivery of a new 2024 Q8 e-tron and love it so far. The best non-EV looking EV on the market. Keep up the great work and thanks!
Excellent review thank you! I love my 2024 Q8 eTron prestige launch edition. Many of these features weren’t explained at my dealership. I am going to play with them right now!
Hi M, As always a great and helpful review. My first Audi was the Audi sq5e I have now purchased the Audi sq8 sports back Etron and absolutely love this car. ATB Glen 👍
Just subscribed! I’m researching the Q8 e-tron to inform myself which trim to take. You have answered questions i did not find in other videos. Your knowledge and presentation is top notch
Great videos as always. Currently looking to finalize on an SQ8 e-tron. Unfortunately the ride height has me unsure. There was no ICE at the dealer to compare. How much lower do you find the Q8/SQ8 E-tron sit vs the ICE Q8/SQ8? Wondering if the highest setting on the air suspension on the Q8/SQ8 e-tron get it close to the ICE. Coming out of an X5 so hoping for something that is similar.
Emily, your video presentation was excellent. I learned a ton of new to me information., And, you presented it in a very interesting way. As a result, I subscribed to your channel. I look forward to your future ones, especially on the 2025 model year A6 EV Sportback and the A6 EV Avant (which so many of us in the U.S. are hoping Audi soon confirms its arrival here. Thanks again for a great job.
great video lots of tips on infotainment I di not know... question is it possible to plan a trip with a Go back option... meaning the vehicule will plan both travels and check for battery capacity when arrived to see if we can go back as ABRP does..?
@@emilytheaudinerd not really if I start from A and go to B it should show the percentage if I go back to A. this function is enable in ABRP don’t know if you know the app in US.
Hi Emily, my first time seeing one of your videos. Wow, you are a real treasure and I don’t mean of just information. You’re a really cool chick! :D “Liked” the video at 2 mins in, “Subscribed” at 4 mins in. I’m a fan! Just bought my 2019 e-tron two months ago, kept my ‘17 Q7 Prestige bc it’s so nice and bc of the crazy cool options it has. 4-wheel steering, night vision, forgot the name of the leather seat option but it was $4K. Next up, the SQ8 e-tron, you sold me on it!
Love both of these EV's but would love to see more range + 800v vehicles. I don't understand why the Volkswagen group doesn't offer Hybrids into its lineup of vehicles across the board? Only Porsche seems to offer one (I believe the Panamera) that's about it but I think an offering to the Q8 also Q4 would be great to have a hybrid engine variant on sale in the U.S. market. JMO 😂 Love the video very interesting and informative.
Hello! Audi will have the A6 sedan first. The the "plan" as I have been told is that the A4 will come later. Likely 2026 or later. But this can always change.
Great review Emily. Do you know if Audi will redesign the interior layout (specifically moving the wireless charger from the center arm rest in the near future?🤔
@@shawnivy thanks! I have not heard anything about moving wireless chargers in the future. I do know that some models are due for a redesign of the interior in the next 2-4 years.
Hi Emily I got my new Q8 Etron 2024 fully spec in Canada(Not sportback),I have 21 wheels Company fitted with profile of 265/45/21 If I want to have 22 wheels 285/40/22...Will it's going to affect the range,if yes to what extent. Thanks
Thanks for watching! These cars' target market is the Q8 ICE or A8 customer. This pricing is in line with those. We have the Q4 and soon to be released Q6 that is for the mass market
Great Vid.. but the electric car market is being scaled back completely by VW and Audi is next. Not time for electric cars yet. Here in the U.S. GM and Ford are stopping production of a of electric models.. I still love my 23' A4 and A6 gasoline versions.
Thanks! Audi is not doing away with any of the gas models. They are just consolidating and cleaning up the naming. I am curious how much of the forecast that I was shown last year will change in the future
Good video as always. It’s really a shame that Audi is wasting all the time, energy and money into a technology that will not be viable long term. It would make more sense if they had a limited amount of EV’s and continued with their regular fossil fuel lineup as that is still the future whether anyone likes or agrees. The achilles heel of EV’s is starting to manifest itself more each day and sales will continue to fall as the drawbacks and real impact on our environment is revealed.
Thank you! I am glad we at least have the option. And if you are really searching for an EV regardless of the news and such, it is a great car. But Audi is NOT doing away with their gas engines. This is just another option available. Much like how we used to get the choice between gas and diesel...oh I do wish we still got the diesels.
Porsche Taycan updated model has them charging at 330+ kw with over 450 miles of range now. EV charging stations are becoming increasingly more common and way, way faster than before. Where I live at least, it seems that EV’s are the only logical option. All of this tech hits the less expensive brands within a couple years. Kia/Hyundai was neck and neck with Porsche for charging speed up until their new Taycan that is being tested currently.
@@emilytheaudinerd Der frühere Audi Chef Rupert Stadler war immer für Technologieoffenheit und würde wenn er noch Chef wäre ganz bestimmt die Verbrenner nicht auslaufen lassen. Mir ist mein Diesel auch viel lieber als ein Elektroauto. Mit mein 73 Liter Tank habe ich 1150 Km Reichweite geschafft. Daß ist für mich das beste Argument nicht umzusteigen auch wenn der sq8 etron gut aussieht. Der übrigens dir gut steht.

Great video. I have driven an Audi e-tron 50 for almost three years now. The best car I've ever had. My new SQ8 e-tron will arrive in May 🙂
CONGRATS!!! Thanks for watching!
Did the order 1 feb
Gonne be delivered in november, im from Belgium where its made 😢
An encyclopedia of information! Great video Emily!

Your videos NEVER disappoint. Thank you for sharing.

Interesting question. I am trying to make sure I am understanding. It will show you the charge level when you arrive at your destination, yes.
@@emilytheaudinerd not really if I start from A and go to B it should show the percentage if I go back to A. this function is enable in ABRP don’t know if you know the app in US.
Ok found .. you have to add a stage .. no so useful as ABRP and the planner sometimes shut off for some unknown reason.. not the most practical
Awesome video, very thorough. Recently picked up a used 2021 e-tron Prestige and am loving it.
Where can we buy one of those e-tron t-shirts?
Awesome!! This one was from the Audi Collection in 2019
Excellent video. I love Audi.
Thanks!
do you use any mobile fast charging networks outside the home base for the etron? Interesting on the installed level 2 charger with a 100amp breaker?
I use electrify America primarily
What is the best home charger for etron gt.
All depends on your location and wiring. We use a lectron charger
The brown color looks a lot darker than it did in the Audi video. Is that due to lighting or the camera or does it also look darker in person aswell?
It is extremely dark in person. We have very high quality CRI lights. The colors in our garage look more vibrant than they do under the sun.
Would you consider the Sportback SQ8 over the traditional SUV model preferred here ?

I like this video because I can tell when your looking at the Q cards 😅
I don’t use any que cards! It’s all done on the spot. It might take a few takes though 😁
Emily, any ideas when Audi will release a mass production e-tron sedan? like an A4 or A5?
Hello! Audi will have the A6 sedan first. The the "plan" as I have been told is that the A4 will come later. Likely 2026 or later. But this can always change.

@@shawnivy thanks! I have not heard anything about moving wireless chargers in the future. I do know that some models are due for a redesign of the interior in the next 2-4 years.
What about the upcoming Q9 3row suv?
Nothing to comment yet on this. We have been told 2027 or later for that vehicle.
Q7 v8 for that one
Hi Emily
I got my new Q8 Etron 2024 fully spec in Canada(Not sportback),I have 21 wheels Company fitted with profile of 265/45/21 If I want to have 22 wheels 285/40/22...Will it's going to affect the range,if yes to what extent.
Thanks
These cars are way too expensive for the average consumer and does not save you any money in the long run. Great video
Thanks for watching! These cars' target market is the Q8 ICE or A8 customer. This pricing is in line with those. We have the Q4 and soon to be released Q6 that is for the mass market
@@emilytheaudinerd Will the Q4 range be increased anytime soon with a future refresh?
Audi has diluted the S branding with their new approach. S-line does not equate to an S or RS. 🤨 Good content though.
That’s why we call it “Rhombus Appropriation” 😄 as mentioned in the video!
Rhombus Appropriation.... I wonder if it is here to stay
Great Vid.. but the electric car market is being scaled back completely by VW and Audi is next. Not time for electric cars yet. Here in the U.S. GM and Ford are stopping production of a of electric models.. I still love my 23' A4 and A6 gasoline versions.

Like your pants though 😅
Thanks!
~250 miles range....
Brown?!? No way!

Hmmm? Black rings always in the rear, silver in the front? Ahhhh.. no....
Audi electric vehicles just aren't great id rather get a gas powred q8
They are pretty fantastic compared to its competition. But the good news is that the gas powered Q8s are not going anywhere!
