Audi Q8 2024 Review | Is the Q8 still the ultimate combustion Audi SUV?

Audi's competes strongly in the trendy coupe part of the large SUV sector with this Q8. Jonathan Crouch drives the revised version.
The Audi Q8 is one of those large coupe-style SUVs, part of a genre pioneered by BMW a decade ago with their X6 and subsequently copied by Mercedes. Audi's considered solution for fashion-orientated folk browsing in this segment is Q7-based and very Vorsprung durch technic. Especially in this updated form.
In this century's second decade, the Volkswagen Group's MLB Evo platform spawned lots of luxury SUVs. First, we had the Audi Q7, then the Bentley Bentayga, the Porsche Cayenne, the Volkswagen Touareg and the Lamborghini Urus. Finally, in 2018, we came back full circle to another Audi, a derivative of the Q7, this swoopier Q8, first launched in 2018.
The Q8 was Audi's entry into the large sector SUV-coupe market, started in the Noughties by the BMW X6, which was then followed by the Mercedes GLE Coupe. The latest versions of both of those two rivals have received facelifts in recent years, so the Q8 has had one too, a car that these days sells alongside a completely separate EV model, the unrelated Q8 e-tron. Here though, we're looking at the combustion Q8, which continues to roll of the VW Group's Slovakian Bratislava production line (alongside the Q7, the Cayenne and the Touareg) and shares the same wheelbase and cabin width as its large Audi stablemate. The driveway demeanour though, is very different here, the emphasis on fashion, rather than family. It's pointless asking whether we really need this kind of car. People want them. Audi's made one. Is it any good? Let's find out.

Beautiful car. I suggest an important improvement, necessary, no, but would make it much better, and appealing to me: There is a cosmetic change I wish Audi would do to the dash. All that glass, the two center console screens the glass going left and right across, it all attracts fingerprints and dust and dirt, is always looking dirty unless you constantly wipe it clean. And you can reach the two screens easily while driving, so quick and simple to wipe those down, but tough to reach further right, making cleaning the right side of dash very inconvenient. Now, there are pros and cons of having 2 screens in the center console instead of more knobs replacing one, I'll leave that alone, but all that smooth, glass or glass like going from the left of the upper screen to the steering column, and going from the right side of the upper screen all the way across the dash to the right side door, I would replace all of that with a very high quality open poor wood, or tightly pulled quality leather, but I'd go for the wood. Won't attract or show fingerprints or dirt, and could look beautiful. Might even use that round just onto the the doors to or around the latches on either side. By doing this you would then have 2 rectangular pieces of glass for the screens, which even when they are smudged and dirty, that will be confined and not all over, so won't look anywhere near as bad, and can be quickly wiped clean while seated even driving. And that little bit of open poor wood would add a sense of warmth to the vehicle too. That and putting sides on the inside of the glove box so more stuff can be put in there without sliding out the sides, those two things would be great improvements. Just my two cents. But awesome looking vehicle regardless. I would want the Prestige, fully loaded. And personally, living in mountainy ski country here in the US, with its rougher roads, I wish Audi would allow me the buyer to option the thicker rubber, smaller wheels, 21", even 20" wheels on the fully loaded Prestige, instead of forcing me into the 22"rs when I add the Black Optics and S-Line packages. Those smaller wheels with thinner rubber, thinner sidewalls, look good, and are fine on well maintained roads and highways, but that thicker rubber, thicker sidewalls would add that much more absorption of bumps on the rougher roads. In fact, this issue was the reason I did not buy one in late 2021. If I'm going to spend that kind of money, give me those wheel options. Please. Such a wonderful vehicle. Even just being able to get the 21"rs on the fully loaded Prestige would be worth it to me, but the 20"rs even more so, though with those I'm concerned it might affect what brakes could be used, but no impact on the brakes, then absolutely the 20"rs. I've even considered the SQ8, but with the newest versions, the fully loaded SQ8 Prestige is now beginning to push buyers into 23" wheels. No freaking way. Give me the 21" even 20" wheel options on the fully loaded SQ8 Prestige I would seriously consider that, for I'd love to get that sport package with the lateral stabilization and rear differential that pushes power in the rear side to side not just front and back. But the more quiet, luxury of the Q8 is where I'm leaning, just still hesitating because of being forced into the thinner rubber, larger wheels. Oh well. Maybe someone reading this novel might forward all this input on to Audi? Nice suv though. Tempting. Though no interest in the EV version, just the combustion version with its mild hybrid. Lol. I sure wish they'd make room for a full size spare too. With so many long distance drives where I am here in the US, and the driving distance limitations of the other alternatives to a full size spare when you have a blow out, it doesn't provide the flexibility or peace of mind that a true spare should. And though it is supposed to be an suv, taking it even onto simple dirt roads with the thinner rubbers sidewalls and no full size spare, involves added risk that need not be a concern with a few of these changes. Oh well. But again, such a beautiful vehicle. Just seems designed in many ways for appearance rather than user friendliness. Still, with just a few changes, I'd get one for sure.
