2024 Audi Q8
Starting at $74.895
Highs: Delivers an entertaining driving experience, cozy as a couch, high-end interior.
Lows: Some stumbles in city driving, sporty shape cuts down on cargo space, not the most fuel-efficient of SUV offerings.
Verdict: As the more stylish take on the three-row Q7, the Q8's smooth ride adds some cool factor.
Overview
With smooth styling with a ride to match, the two-row Audi Q8 is a dramatized version of the boxier Q7 three-row SUV. They both use the same solid underpinnings, including a turbocharged 335-hp V-6 engine, eight-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive, but the Q8's starting price is significantly higher. The Q8's chassis and acceleration are a mix of sweet and spicy, but this luxury SUV isn't shy about gulping down fuel. Much like other sporty-shaped SUVs, such as the BMW X6 or Mercedes-Benz GLE-class Coupe, the Q8 puts comfort first, with a plush interior and high-tech helm. A 500-hp SQ8 and even wilder 591-hp RS Q8 are also available, but we review each of those high-power versions separately.
What's New for 2024?
Audi gives the upscale Q8 some significant updates for 2024 with new looks and equipment. The Q8 refresh includes redesigned front and rear fascias, new optional matrix-beam LED headlights, new wheels, colors, and seat stitching.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
The price of the 2024 Audi Q8 starts at $74.895 and goes up to $82.995 depending on the trim and options.
We'd choose the Audi Q8 Premium trim and enhance it with select options. Its standout standard features already include a fully digital gauge cluster, built-in navigation, leather upholstery, heated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, and a power-operated tailgate. While 21-inch rims are standard, we'd still spec the Black Optic package for its sportier appearance. We'd also add the Convenience package (blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, wireless charging, and more) and the Towing package. The latter unlocks the Q8's maximum tow rating of 7700 pounds.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Audi provides every Q8 with a turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 that makes 335 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. It pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission and Quattro all-wheel drive. A 48-volt hybrid-assist system aids stop-start operation, which was smooth and quiet during our experience. While the Audi had plenty of passing power on the highway, it felt hesitant around town unless we crushed the gas pedal. The transmission had mostly dutiful reactions, but it and the engine best cooperated in Dynamic mode, which provoked snappier responses. We only wish the engine and exhaust made gutsier sounds. While it swiftly changes directions and obediently hustles around corners, it's less engaging than Audi sedans such as the sleek A7. The Q8's steering has light effort and linear feedback, which was relaxing on long trips but boring on switchback roads. Our test vehicle had the optional air suspension and wore 22-inch wheels-21-inchers are standard.
