Love the fact that they kept the interieur how it is. In my eyes, thats how a interieur should be - No widescreen, no giant ass iPad in the middle, but a dedicated screen for the gauge cluster, one for the infotainment. I still prefer the physical climate controls in like the e-tron GT, but having used the Q8 style interieur, the climate-screen works out great, since the controlls are there all the time, and not hidden in some menu. It might look dated in some peoples eyes, but I think this is nearly perfect. Other manufacturers should be inspired by it, and not deciding to put everything into one giant screen.
I own a 22' SQ8. While I loved my B9 A5 interior and still think it is one of the ergonomically best interiors I have ever used, the SQ8's interior grew on me a lot. As you said, no tacky iPad, climate control is always there, it does not feel unnecesarrily flashy as maybe Mercedes or BMW does. To me, it is the perfect technocratic (as one Slovakian youtuber says) interior. It is slowly showing its age for sure, but still works perfectly nontheless.
It's a bit more tasteful than the Lambo, yes, but it's still a huge vehicle with a guge grill...I wouldn't be that mean with the Urus. 😅 Performance wheels look great, but the non-Performance ones are also really beautiful! PS: hard to see your feet in the water while it's a REALLY cold day here in Argentina! 🤣
I’m picking the A4/5 with be a pretty hefty change in comparison to the mild changes here on the RSQ8, they’ll probably be on the new upcoming naming structure where E-trons are even numbered and ICE cars are odd numbers, it’ll be the A5 sedan and A5 Sportback and the next A4 will be electric only. There will be like some heavy core engineering changes too like mostly mild hybrids etc.
Updating the affordable cars would likely make them even more expensive. Both cars have excellent interiors & exteriors that don’t need changing. They will likely ruin the physical climate controls and go for new non tacticle, haptic buttons, no one wants that.
When you keep the interior the same for basically 5 years straight. That whole team of designers probably had the longest vacation break ever. Fire them all please!
I did and was not impressed. The exhaust was muted and it handled like a bloated American luxury car. Compared to my 2020 X5 x40i it was a sloppy mess. I then test drove an SQ7 and bought it. It is 10x better than the X5 m60
What the point in these cars. We need smaller environmental cars, and as I’ve experienced what the point of that power anyway. I got 3 points for doing 65 in a 60.
£150k for a car that does 150mph? What good is that when speed limits are 20 mph everywhere .... and it barely does 10 miles per gallon? And that’s before depreciation…
This is one of the most aesthetically pleasing car reviews I've ever seen
Haha glad to hear, it was an awkward location to film in, so hot, under a flight path and crazy reflections, but glad I got this from it 👌

That pool looks so cool......
It was lovely and cool.... For my feet 😂👌
I really like the customisable lights. Definitely not required, but cool to be able to change things up now and then 😂
Joe its funny how you said the RSQ8 is the ultimate road tripper because I am currently on a 3000km road trip with mine and very very pleased with it
Haha that's awesome, glad you're having fun, brilliant packages!
I agree I’d rather have the RSQ8 over a Urus any day, and would definitely go for a grey with the black accents. 👌
As far as design goes, Audi is killing BMW
Customers seem to love one brand more than the other.
Don't get updated badges. Change on the back, remove from front, and leave others old? Steering wheel, seats, graphics?
Joe:
im at an all inclusive and i came across these cars on the hotel balcony 😂😂😂
This in Merlin Purple 😮💜
Me to bro ❤❤ beautiful car
That engine in a new Q9 and im in 👍
Customisable DRLs! And you get an RS Audi thrown in. Fair play Audi 👍
Pre-facelift front looks definitely better!
Joe love the show. When customers choose a vehicle is the top 3 reasons: 1st looks 2nd ride/interior 3rd cost/maintenance?
Very nice Joe 👍❤
What's the sound db difference in the cabin between standard trim vs performance trim?
Looking good Joe 👌
How cold was the water Joe?! You seem to be handling it fine to be fair!
I actually love the wheels 😊
Looks nice !

👏👏👏
bmw and mercedes have lost their minds. I'm glad that audi keeps making beautiful cars, even as suvs.
The price of RS cars now 😮 l guess that’s a reason to keep my TT RS as the values are holding well.
Waiting for Audi to update the affordable cars, a5? a4? nah lets update the e-tron GT and the RSQ8 instead lol
affordable or say there non performance segment cars the luxury one.
i was like: when the heck audi was affordable lol

A5 Avant is coming this month, A6 etron & Q5 soon too..
Outro? What outro?! 😂😊
Shoeless Joe today
Yep afraid so!
@@JoeAchilles1Amazing work as usual
cool!
When Joe gets attacked by BOT in the comment :
It better be quicker than the Urus 🥹
Hi friend 😊
When you keep the interior the same for basically 5 years straight. That whole team of designers probably had the longest vacation break ever. Fire them all please!
Because it’s so good!
People often compare RS Q8 to urus, but isn't it closer to Cayanne Turbo? It looks like the vag order performance wise is Urus > Cayanne > RS Q8
You're right, it should be compared to the Cayenne too, it's a pity the Anus is on the same platform.
Anus🫣
Has Joe tested the X5 M60i yet?
He hasn't, but has tested the X6 M60i 👌
I did and was not impressed. The exhaust was muted and it handled like a bloated American luxury car. Compared to my 2020 X5 x40i it was a sloppy mess. I then test drove an SQ7 and bought it. It is 10x better than the X5 m60
23 inch wheels , replacement tyres would cost more than a budget hatchback
Why do so many TH-camrs misuse the word “literally “ ?
I literally have no idea.
@@JoeAchilles1 how unique.
Hope u get better son u sound bit underweather mate
I hate those oversized sea containers

Why are you standing in water?
Ask Audi Sport
People really be comparing this outdated cheap trash shitbox to the Lamborghini Urus 🤣
Not bad but I’m still a BM fan 😇
First, LOL
£150k for a car that does 150mph? What good is that when speed limits are 20 mph everywhere .... and it barely does 10 miles per gallon? And that’s before depreciation…
It's all relative.
If you can afford the car you can usually afford the fuel….
Oh bore off
Are you slow in the head? Ever head of The autobahn un restricted roads… or different countries were petrol is dirt cheap.
This motor is not for you son. Stick to a 4 cylinder diesel and life will be fine for you
I love how every white British youtubers hate the Urus. Is it because Urus in the UK are owned by minorities?
Terrible ride, ugly and obnoxious cars, mostly owned by complete bell ends.
Can you show me your data source to back up “Urus in the U.K. are owned by minorities”?
Pretty unoriginal. Great video though.
