The Audi Q8 is the brand's flagship coupe-style SUV, blending the size and refinement of the Q7 with a lower roofline, stronger visual presence and a more style-led cabin experience. The Australian range uses a turbocharged mild-hybrid V6 petrol drivetrain with quattro all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission. A five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty applies. The Q8 is less about maximum seating capacity and more about luxury SUV presence, long-distance comfort and polished performance. It suits drivers who want a large Audi SUV with a more distinctive design than the Q7, while the SQ8 and RSQ8 sit above it for much stronger performance.
