2020 Audi Q8 | Costly Car Art

We review one of the most advanced SUVs, the 2020 Audi Q8. We discuss the good and bad along with the technical details that make it seem like a mass-produced exotic. BMW, Mercedes, and Volvo have similar offerings and competition, however, we talk about what makes this a dream lease.

By far, one of the best, most thorough car reviews I have seen on KZbin, Q8 is on my short list for my next car, this review pushed me closer to choosing it. Thanks, keep those great reviews coming!

[@justiceodueze2897]

This is literally a “Great Value” version of the Urus.. and I am here for it

[@cytrynowy_melon6604]

'great value'? Only if you desperately want an urus clone. Look how ridiculous configuring this car is, and how some options cost.

[@justiceodueze2897]

Tomasz Kolowca Yea just like the new C8 looks like a Ferrari clone for a fraction of the price. The Q8 starts at what, maybe $80K, tops out at what $97K? Do you know where an Urus even starts?!! Dang near a quarter mill ($250K) Granted this vehicle is for the Urus clones who can’t afford the real thing. And I personally am one of them. And options are ridiculous but I rather pay a 1/3 of the price for a product in this case comes from the same family, but the only difference is exterior and power plant. (Unless I win the lotto)

[@willo300]

Not just a review, but proper analysis, love the way you take the trouble to get the vehicle in the air and take a look underneath. I have one of these on order in the same colour/wheel combination with the 3.0 diesel engine (in the UK) and I cannot wait for it to arrive.

Long live the NA DOHC V8!

[@Beangoeszoom]

His video is also what sold me on getting an RC F. Lexus should sponsor his Arbys addiction.

[@edb.8388]

Great review as always, the title of your review hits the nail on the head. I'm an Audi fan and their cars/suvs are aesthetically appealing and you can't argue with the engineering - it's just at this price point they don't make sense for most of us. We lease an A4 and will be turning in this fall, it was fun while it lasted, but once Audicare expires it's time to move on - just not a long term vehicle considering maintenance costs over time. But then again, if you have the money none of that matters...

You are by far the best reviewer that i have come across. You talk of those things that are specific to the vehicle and those things that really matter to people and the engineering and all. Really appreciate you doing all this and thank you. A quick question on this review. How does the isolation and quietness levels compare to something like a lexus rx 350?

[@MrClickclickpow]

Best car review channel ever, GOAT

[@MrPeterthepilot]

Probably the best review of a Q8 I’ve watched. I have a Premium Plus + and I think I like it - six weeks old so still working it out. I have the black on black interior which works much better with the silver exterior than with this grey. The screens do get messy although the voice system is quite good so you’re not using them as much as you think you’re going to.

[@lexdelaney2805]

Nice use of Corona-Arby's puke as a scene transition. You truly are a master.

[@jswede1]

I watched a few reviews here before, but apparently this is the first time I’m paying attention. I’m struck by the objectivity of the review in the first five minutes. No features are mentioned and allowed to sit on their own, everything is in context to what should be expected at this price point. That’s quite unique in car review channels. And then all of a sudden the car is on a lift and we’re looking at the bones of what makes it what it is?! OK no one does it like this. Subscribed. Thanks for what looks to be a great channel.

[@jacthemuss]

great production guys

[@jbassgold]

Love how comedy heavy this review is. I'll watch these reviews for the humor even if it's a miserable car.

[@vgamedude12]

As humorously entertaining as it is informative!

[@cdl3354]

Picked up a Q8, you gave great detail in feel and ride quality. I feel that secluded, in your own world type of feeling all the time. What it gives up in performance to a BMW it makes up in smoothness and fluidity. 90 feels like 60 all day.

[@klebercosta5152]

[@jeffwarren1547]

You really are a savage 😂 Loved the, another, great car review!

[@wheelsmcfury4086]

I lol'd hella hard. I love this channel!

[@Nate-zy5ce]

Another great review. I do have a couple questions. I am considering the 2021 Q8, Prestige, fully loaded, or the 2021 SQ8, Prestige, fully loaded, including the Sports Package. For me, it's less about the purchase price and more about how well they handle the full variety of roads and bad weather conditions, especially snow/ice storms in hilly ski country. The better mpg of the Q8 is tempting, and I love how quiet and smooth to drive it is, but there are other things to consider. Is there any way you, or maybe some of the posters here, might comment on if the SQ8 will be better on rougher roads and in worse weather, especially snow and ice, and if so, why that is, what features that you cannot get on the Q8 but can on the SQ8 make it so? And specifically, will the optional Sports Package on the SQ8 make any kind of a relevant improvement in this regard, and if so how? And the last thing I would want is to pay up for everything, only to have it perform worse on rougher roads or bad winter weather. My last decision, if you care to comment on it as well, will be whether to get the Black Optics which looks so incredible but bumps either car up to the 285/40/20 wheels, or do without the Black Optics and get the thicker rubber/sidewall of the 285/45/21 wheels. I can't decide if the difference between the 45 and 40 sidewalls will even be relevant or noticeable for taking the rougher roads, avoiding damage with bumps and smoothing out the drive on such. I live in ski country, and will be doing a lot of driving both summer and winter, good roads and bad, a lot of highway driving too, all good weather and bad, maybe some off road to get to a campsite or fishing spot, which can sometimes get tough, but no actual, tougher, intentional "off roading". Sometimes I think these auto manufacturers tend to forget that these more sporty, coupe style, high end suv's are still supposed to have at least some suv capabilities. The mandating of larger 22 wheels for the more loaded trims is an example. And if I want the 20 wheels with maximum 50 rubber/sidewall and slightly narrower 275 width which could be better in deeper snow, I have to forego just about everything, very frustrating. I want and will pay for maximizing the luxury, but I still want some kind of suv capability. Thanks for any input you or other posters here provide. Keep up the great work.

[@fouUili684]

I really appreciate your review of the 2020 GX460 especially with the infotainment on this Audi. Everything is touch screen, the GX460 has mostly buttons and I like that better than all touchscreen. I love the humor and I agree with a previous comment, don’t give a shit about the Audi but how you make videos makes me wanna watch it, thanks.

2021 Q8 Owner Great review . . . but you did not mention the fantastic lighting system inside and out that this car has. The headlights (high/low beams) are controlled automatically and the high beams are like airplane landing lights. Plus when turning the headlights shine around corners before you make the turn. Inside lighting is fantastic with many accent colors from which to choose. Love to drive this car at night. BTW..........you don't need all of those garage door openers. You can program the Audi Q8 to open 8 garage doors.
