Audi's first performance SUV is no joke, sharing a platform and engine with the Lamborghini Urus, a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 beast.
It's spacious, practical and performance-ready. What's even better is that it will cost you nearly half as much as the Lamborghini Urus, starting roughly $170,000 cheaper.
The line-up currently starts at $255,800 for the RS Q8 4.0 TFSI Quattro Mhev and ranges through to $255,800 for the range-topping RS Q8 4.0 TFSI Quattro Mhev.
Climb into the cabin of the RS Q8 and you’re met by a wall of leather and technology, not to mention a sense of immense space. Everything is digital and touch activated, of course, and yet it doesn’t feel garish and overdone.
The RS Q8 will hit 100km/h in just 3.8 seconds.
The Audi RS Q8 is a five-seat mega SUV that serves up plenty of space in both the first and second rows.
You get massive 23-inch alloys wheels outside, with red brake calipers peeking out from behind, as well as RS adaptive air suspension, a qauttro sport differential, all-wheel steering, electronic active roll stabilisation, Matrix LED headlights, a panoramic sunroof, and an RS sport exhaust.
Inside, you’ll find Valcona leather seats that are heated in both rows, ambient interior lighting, leather everything, automatic sun blinds, illuminated door sills and just about every other piece of kit Audi has in its sizeable grab bag.
On the tech front, you’ll find Audi Connect plus and Audi’s Virtual Cockpit, and a 17-speaker Bang and Olufsen 3D sound system that pairs with twin (10.1-inch and 8.6-inch) screens, capping off a seriously tech-heavy cabin.
