The thing I love about hot crossovers and SUVs is that they’re faster in the real world than any supercar. If you come up to an unexpected traffic jam in your 911 Turbo S on a divided highway with a curbed median, you have to just sit there and wait. In this, you simply drive over the curb and turn around, problem solved. Plus, you can see over other cars, which is VERY helpful in traffic because you can plan your moves ahead of time, and you also feel more comfortable driving when you know what’s going on around you.

As a temporary leave of car guy (1 toddler and 1 infant now) past e90 m3 6mt, e46 m3 6mt, gt3 6mt owner, i have a SQ7 and my brother has a SQ8 and the Audi brand has really brought these cars to life. My brother is a past two time cayenne turbo owner and I am still a cayenne turbo S owner and I love your comment about how authentic the drive feels. The new SQ's offer such un-boosted drive unlike the PTV+ paired with RWS that Porsche puts in their vehicles and it is far more of an honest "drivers car" (can I even say that?) than any SUV or even performance sedans out there today. Audi's been on the back burner for me since the B7 S4/RS4, gen 1 R8 days, but now they are really on this incredible path of building quality drivers vehicles while providing incredible value.

My favourite part about this car is that VW Group 4.0L twin turbo V8 ~~ The sound that thing makes is really nice~ If you want an Urus or RS Q8, but can't pay for an actual Urus or an RS Q8, this is a good substitute and it's still crazy with its 500 HP and 770 Nm of torque. The fact that the SQ8 is a huge SUV and it drives like a sports car is amazing. Audi did some wizardry with this car for sure.

Audi is definitely underrating these things. I did see a video of a shop that tuned an RSQ8 and despite the claimed 591 hp/590 lb-ft versus the big brother, the Urus with 641 hp/627 lb-ft, they were getting bigger numbers compared with the Urus using the same tune. I think Audi isn't stupid, they got some tricks up their sleeves. Same thing with the S8 (my favorite of the current lineup). They claim 563 hp, but the torque remains the same as the RSQ8 @ 590 lb-ft, so my guess is that the engine is very likely using the exact same calibration and Audi just claimed a lower power rating because the A8 doesn't have an RS model. I'd go for an SQ7 over the SQ8, but definitely would be well-served and happy with either of them. :D

Just ordered one in Matador Red, Black with Gray Stitching, Carbon Vector inlay, Luxury Package, Titanium Black Optic Package, Black Rings & Model Badge Kit, S Beams 4 doors, Sports Resonator Kit! Only problem it won't be in until July/Aug this summer... They told me it would more that likely be a 2022 model so I'm waiting patiently and hoping it comes in sooner! I guess it gives me time to save up for it! Just kidding :) By the way AUDI is offering 1.49% financing or Feb 2021 for those who qualify and are interested in purchasing a SQ8. Love your videos Ted and I expect I'll be driving with a heavy foot also. Big smile my friend!

Good review. I enjoyed hearing the excitement in your voice driving this. A couple of questions, though, technical in nature. You mentioned that this would be a beast in the snow with a good set of snow tires. My question relates to that: Is there any difference between the Quattro AWD in the Q8 versus the SQ8 without the optional Sports Package and its rear ltd slip differential? Is the 60/40 rear/front power bias of the awd system fixed, or does it vary, and if vary, to what percentage limits can the power be sent to the front axel and to the rear axel? How does adding the Sport Package with its rear ltd slip diff change this, and will it help not just powering thru fast, dry turns, but on rougher roads and slippery snowstormy roads? Different reviewers have said different things about this issue, so I am struggling to verify such, and I thought I'd ask. Either way, good review.

@@TheYankmchain Yeh, it's frustrating when these reviewers don't reply, though I can't be too critical of these guys, since I find that most reviewers don't reply. That said, when a reviewer does reply, especially when they make an effort to answer questions, it really stands out since most don't, and as such is very much appreciated. I am going to ask this reviewer another question, having just watched the video again. I had put off my purchase decision, so am still looking. Considering the Q8, but am leaning strongly towards the SQ8, with the sport package he references that adds cross stabilization in the front and sport rear electronic ltd slip differential, which I think has to help some on slippery winter roads as well as stronger performance on dry roads. I am still torn a bit about the wheel size. I want the SQ8 Prestige, but if I get the black optics which is so beautiful it forces me into the larger wheel/smaller rubber sidewall 22" wheels, but if I forgo the black optics I can keep the slightly smaller wheel/slightly thicker rubber 21" wheels. I just don't know if the difference in rubber thickness between a 22" and 21" wheel will be noticeable. Decisions, decisions.

People who say they would get an RS6 instead should take a long look at the configurator and realize it’s over $20k more for the same equipment, plus market adjustment since RS6 is in low supply, so more like +$30k. Not really a cross-shop that people do in the real world.

Get the fully loaded, it’s got black polished carbon, looks as mean as fuck.

I came back to watch your very good video review again, and once again, loved it. Never heard back from you on my last questions, but I now have another question somewhat related to the last that I am hoping you'll answer: In the video you reference a moment on a turn where the SQ8 slipped a little. You seemed to downplay it, which makes me think it may have just been circumstantial and not an issue for the vehicle, but it concerns me. Is that slip something I need to worry about? What do you think caused it? Would that have happened under similar circumstances with a regular 4WD suv like a Yukon Denali? I had to temporarily put off my prior purchase decision of the 2021 model earlier this year, but I am now seriously considering a 2022 SQ8 Prestige with the 4 wheel steering and the optional sport package, and slippage versus solid grip on wintery, snowy roads is my biggest concern with whatever vehicle I get. I am thinking, hoping the Audi AWD system, with the 4 wheel steering, and that rear elsd of the sport package, that it all might make this Audi a top performer in snowy weather, on secondary roads or at highway speeds, but then I heard your slip comment on a road that appeared to be only slightly slippery with either rain or slush, and it got my attention. I hope you'll reply with some comments. All the above said, I very much think yours was an excellent review. Thumbs up. This SQ8 is so tempting! I am trying to decide whether the 22" wheels required with the black options option are acceptable, or if I should forgo the black optics as beautiful as it is, thus keep the 21" wheels. I am thinking every bit of extra rubber could be helpful, and as sporty as this is it is still supposed to be an suv, but I am not sure if the difference between the 22" and 21" wheels will even be noticeable. If you have thoughts on that as well, I'd welcome those too.

Great review, I’d love to drive one. I am wondering how it compares to the v6 Q8 which is already pretty expensive. Obviously you get more power and nicer trim level but you also get more weight, worse mileage and higher cost. Is it worth it for an SUV? I recently did a back to back test drive of the X5 40i M sport and M50i (X6 was too ugly to consider) and liked the M50i’s power and sound, but the handling was a little sloppy compared to the 40i (with M sport package). You could definitely feel the extra weight on the front end and the steering feel was worse than the 40i. I came to the conclusion that the 6 cylinder had enough power for an SUV in 90% of situations, so the M50i was not worth the money or the extra weight and accompanying degraded handling and steering feel. I am curious if Q8 vs SQ8 would be similar. If you could arrange an M50i vs SQ and/or a Q8 (or X5) 6 cylinder vs V8 I think it would make a great video.
@ajlee6933
@ajlee6933 3 жыл бұрын
On the M50i version, BMW offers an optional Dynamic Handling Package. Most dealerships skip this option to keep the price from nearing 100k, but all BMW press cars have this option on it. If you watch any reviews on the X5/X6 M50i, they’ll say the handling is great. I definitely recommend test driving a model with this option (if you can find one) to see the difference.

I'd like to see the Etron Sportback S. From what I've heard it's a hard sell at dealers in spite of over 500hp. Tbh I'd go for the normal SUVs since they can't be as slick as the A7.

I think it’s just easier not to buy and EV if you were on the fence. If you were thinking about it and show up to an Audi dealer there’s so many other cars to catch your attention. If you go to Tesla you have no choice but electric

Hi! I know it’s been a while since you reviewed this car, but how did you feel about the racer seats in comparison to the luxury seats in the traditional Q8? I know they have more functions for the racer seats now, but is one more comfortable or more spacious than the other? Great review!

I have no use for SUV's whatsoever, and I really dislike the whole SUV-ification of the states. The smaller, the better IMO. I can't deny how seemingly impressive the VW group's SUV's are, though.

@@marcusborderlands6177 I understand the argument, but convenience is so boring. I want something that can take a corner with minimal body roll while instilling confidence. I also want something that’s actually affordable and good value for money. I have literally no reason for an SUV every day. I know I’m not like most other people. I have no kids to cart around or any lumber/tools etc. to transport on a daily basis. If I need the room for a day, I get the room for the day.

That’s really got to be up to the owners taste. I’ll say it’s too easy to go for the German rainbow of white silver or black. If it’s not outrageously expensive I’d prefer something in a deep hue like a red or green. The possibilities are endless if you’re willing to pay

I really don't like this trend of Uber SUV's. Something like an s7 which I figure is just a sportback coupé looking thing just lower to the ground. Yeah, this thing looks sorted on the road, but who really is going to use the higher ground clearance? What advantage does it bring besides being slightly easier to get in and out of
