    Audi SQ8 Review, For Sale, Colours, Interior & News in Australia

    Audi SQ8 Review, For Sale, Colours, Interior & News in Australia

    FROM
    $173,090

    A valued member of Audi's performance SUV portfolio, the SQ8 doesn't hold back with its twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8.

    Having said that, it's a little bit more refined than the Urus-based RSQ8, offering a genuinely luxurious ride when it isn't in performance mode. Even when it is its not too far off its Italian cousin.

    The line-up currently starts at $173,090 for the SQ8 E-Tron and ranges through to $178,815 for the range-topping SQ8 4.0 Tfsi Quattro.
