Borrowing elements from the luxurious SQ8 TFSI1, the S line exterior package takes center stage, characterized by prominently accentuated side air intakes integrated into the front bumper. The interior features luxurious Valcona leather sports seats engraved with S embossing.
The Audi Q8’s performance is elevated by its sophisticated suspension system, reflecting Audi’s signature balanced, solid, controlled, precise, and effortless handling. The electronically controlled air suspension with continuously adaptive damping guarantees superior comfort and stability, providing enhanced safety and comfort for drivers. Embracing 40 years of excellence, Audi also introduces an optional all-wheel steering system that elevates low-speed maneuverability by subtly turning the rear wheels in the opposite direction to the front. Additionally, this feature enhances stability at higher speeds, with the rear wheels steering together with the front for an improved driving experience.
Adding to the Q8’s appeal is its wide selection of decor, colors, and wheels. Customers have the option to select from nine decorative inlays and three new metallic finishes: Sakhir Gold, Ascari Blue, and Chili Red. The Audi Q8 also offers a variety of wheel designs, ranging from 21 to 23 inches, to achieve the ideal balance of style and performance.
The SQ8, equipped with a V8 engine, highlights the model’s sporty nature. It features a 4.0 TFSI engine producing 507 HP and 770 Nm of torque, paired with a quick-shifting eight-speed tiptronic and quattro permanent all-wheel drive. This powertrain enables the SQ8 TFSI to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.1 seconds, with an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h.
Complementing its dynamic performance, the SQ8 comes equipped with standard features such as adaptive air suspension sport and all-wheel steering, providing optimal ride comfort and sporty handling.
