2024 Audi Q8 e-Tron Review | Low-Key Electric SUV

[@roccon10]

That style of spare tire needs inflating before use, hence the air compressor in the frunk. Deflating the tire after use causes it to fold back up again. Pretty neat space saver tire.

[@LafemmebearMusic]

I’m so tempted to just get the last pre refresh gen for like 30k with 2k miles…😅 they can’t give these away. Love the videos as usual, I feel like I could hang with y’all 😊

[@itslucien]

I was thinking the same, used and CPO e-trons are a lot of car for not much money, especially compared to new

[@jamesshort5682]

The best car review format on YT: Concise yet complete. Great job Micah and fam. Cheers...Jim

[@RodGreenshields]

On my first test drive, I was also annoyed by the regenerative braking shutting off every time I used the brakes or the accelerator. But I found out there’s a simple option in the settings to change that. Second test drive was much better! I really like the option of adjusting how much regenerative braking the car applies. While it won’t do full one pedal driving, which would be nice, it decelerates down to about 4 mph on full regenerative braking.

[@dgyoungs]

Mind elaborating on this? Can't find it clearly explained anywhere. I love opd driving but really interested in an etron

[@levigato125]

12:58 what’s up with all the trash on the ground? Beautiful San Bernardino county.

[@mini2nut1]

We just picked up a super low mile 2024 Q8 for $20k off the window sticker. Buy a used model if in the market, the resale value drops like a brick.

[@MicahMuzio]

THAT is the smart play. Nicely purchased!

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Excellent review as always!

[@nadirmalik3155]

usually the integrated merch/sponsor breakaway is so jarring but u guys nailed it seamlessly! haha nicely done

[@afcgeo882]

You need that tire air kit to inflate the collapsible spare tire.

[@thatguy.7608]

Is been awhile since I’ve watched your videos and I have say the two of you are getting much much better. Not that you were bad before but the way you two have been volleying facts at us 👌🏾

[@slighwentwalking2024]

Love that color. Audi styling rarely misses. 10K in options?....and that's not fully loaded 🤔 A phrase I use now more often than sever before is 'rich family friendly'...but I will refrain from attaching a sticker if I see one in a parking lot.

[@ZenEndurance]

Correct on the coasting. Good on the engineers allowing it to coast until you need to actually apply braking. Imagine a bicycle aggressively coming to a stop every time you stopped pedaling and how inefficient that would be. Let the momentum of the car carry you when it’s better to slow very gradually and glide until it’s necessary to truly slow down. People that have driven stick shifts know all about the glide in neutral and how to hypermile with it.

[@billyc2730]

If u compare the interior quality and ride comfort of this against Cadillac lyriq and Genesis gv70 electric which one is the best among these 3? Could you plz rate each on a scale of 1-10

[@MauriceBln1]

Great looking EV.

[@hynsum]

4:39 "rear-window test" WOW! Not all the way down...Audi, I need a discount for that. 🤣 Q: Do some cars have option to limit how far can the rear window be open as a part of child safety...? Thx.

[@alexnewell8580]

the reason for the tire inflator is to inflate the spare. its a "compressed donut" haha

[@davidfrania8990]

Micah views the world through rose colored glasses...Flying Eyes, of course! 😉

[@Visualhead_Spacer]

this or Macan 4 EV, competition is heating up... I'd go for Macan though.. it looks so good.

[@bavariancarenthusiast2722]

what about the Etron now and the Macan later? Solved ;)

[@ReviewedByNick]

That shifter...... Wild!

[@jamwiddle6642]

I own one. I love it.

[@Tdweaver2]

It’s a dope vehicle!

[@jamesinsteamboat]

The latest lease deals on these at $444/mo is really tempting

[@richardh3587]

Where are you seeing that? Id pickuo one of these today for that price!

[@jamesinsteamboat]

@@richardh3587 it was on Audi USA's website. I called my dealer to try to find one, could only be Premium, not PP or Prestige and they didn't have any. Now the email from Audi shows Q4 e-trons from $199/mo. Since EV tech is improving so quickly, I think leasing makes the most sense, especially if you can score a lease deal

[@arminpoorfard306]

I have a friend who bought one of these and the car did not start after being half a day in his garage. The car was in a the shop for two weeks and they could not not fix it.. He finally emailed Audi USA and they are going buy back the car. He is going to buy the gas version. I love EV's but it looks that it takes some time for companies to make them more reliable and affordable like gas versions.

[@guy420man]

So one example makes you think that EVs aren’t ready. Ok 👌

[@arminpoorfard306]

@@guy420man I understand that one example does not apply to all.I personally would like my next car to be EV but they are still far from affordable and hearing stories here and there make me think maybe we should let the technology to settle down for a while although gas cars are not perfect either after all years of development and research.

[@Parker53151]

For another test, find a random charging station. If it actually works, and if idiots haven’t parked there and left, see how long it actually takes to recharge the car’s batteries. Then compare that with the manufacturer’s claims.

[@brettfine3444]

Please review the Maserati Grecale Folgore EV. Thank you guys.

[@mediumunwell]

It’s so nice but man them price tags tho.

[@hynsum]

And expensive too 😎

[@hugdeath929]

All that scratched black trim makes it look cheap. The rear window only rolling halfway down doesn’t work for me. I’m sure it provides a confidence inspiring driving experience but the styling doesn’t work for me. I’d also like to see more controls that aren’t built into the screen. I’d prefer to have the choice to one pedal drive. Besides the massaging seats what else did you experience in this vehicle that make it feel more luxury and not just VW? Since you referenced them I’ll ask what I e asked other reviewers. What features/functions on the Model X (or any Tesla for that matter) lead you to recommend it in luxury vehicle conversations? Thanks for the review 🤙

[@preoksaha4504]

0-60 in 5.5? A base engine X3 can do it in 5.3 💀

[@commbubba1990]

Do interior designers even sit in the cars they design? Having zero arm support in this day and age is just unacceptable.

[@dextersmithbsee]

The BMW IX is by far the ugliest of the bunch of pricey European EVs. Heck its the ugliest EV at any price.😂

[@hereigoagain5050]

Very nice for $45K. At $80K the Lucid Air Pure is more attractive.

[@Kiss__Kiss]

For me? the exterior, for the price? it's a little boring.

[@craigerickson6308]

To bad EVs are not affordable or practical. Even worse is the amount of resources used to build the batteries is considerably less abundant than what ICE, internal combustion engines use or need. That's not even bringing up the power grid to charge them demand is. Otherwise great review as always.

[@davetravels9273]

Every EV is different. Some are worse than others. Most evs have a lower carbon footprint than an ICE vehicle of similar size within one year of use. Some less than 3 months. Evs actually help balance the grid, not strain it, especially when charged in the evenings and off-peak hours. 😉

[@XoX1971]

Tell me you’re conservative without telling me you’re conservative. lol

[@bradyb9929]

Okay Trumper

This person thinks that drilling for oil is an industry with no environmental or labor problems

[@teddysdadcory]

Somebody’s been watching too much Fox News

[@studiodsr]

It makes me nervous seeing you drive while talking to the camera with your child in the backseat. Clearly your whole focus isn’t on the road. Maybe get a sitter?

[@MicahMuzio]

I appreciate your concern. For background, I've reviewed cars on-camera professionally for the past 17 years with zero incidents. When conditions dictate, we pause our recordings...though that stuff gets edited out so you never see. I've also worked hard to build the skills to communicate without sacrificing situational awareness. A good example is this moment from our recent CX-50 review. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXuteGCAiMufi7csi=XaAXX6x2iTBUxAqK&t=619
