Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

Pros
Spry handling,
eager powertrains,
sporty exterior styling.

Cons
Standard interior materials don't impress,
snug rear seat,
most rivals offer more cargo space.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
The world's best-handling SUV
Welcome power upgrades boost its appeal
High-quality cabin
Strong residual values

Cons
Rear passenger and trunk space smaller than competition
Screen technology a generation behind newer Porsches
Stiff ride quality in GTS trim with Sport package
Desirable options can quickly inflate the price

By: 
edmunds.com

Pros
Handles very well for its size
Impressively comfortable too
Loads of infotainment tech

Cons
Muted engine sounds
Auto gearbox isn't the best
Lots of expensive optional extras

By:

Audi has made no changes to the RS Q8 for 2021.

Pros
Mega-powerful V-8 engine,
nimble chassis,
styling is more restrained than the mechanically similar Lambo Urus.

Cons
Slower and more expensive than the RS6 Avant,
brake feel isn't particularly confidence inspiring,
not quite as poised as a Porsche.

The RS Q8 is unchanged for 2021.

Pros
Turbo V8 delivers devastating straight-line performance
Nimble, lively handling puts most sports cars to shame
Comfortable, well-trimmed interior

Cons
Infotainment system can be distracting to use
Limited interior storage
Less practical than the related Q7
