@@rocketman7700 I ordered the car 4 weeks ago. Initially it was supposed to be a 9-12 months wait. Got a call from the sales guy 2 weeks ago that it will be produced already in june! He was as surprised as I. Must have been a cancelled allocation for my market (Sweden) and my spec fitted it perfectly? Anyway, 3 months waiting is OK. 😎
Sq8 is the pic of the range out of all performance suvs out there. I personally prefer the sq8 tdi, but this is still a top pic. It does everything an suv should do, but its also fast and handles decently well. Nothing more than that, its doesnt need more than that.
I don't want Audi to lose the essence of making cars like this... Simply a good modern Audi but without strange designs on the exterior and interior. Just nail car 😍
i doubt its smaller turbos, it chips to 700hp just like the rsq8, the old 4.0t's there were differences but not anymore, maybe cooling package is better on the RS not sure
Currently owning a 50TDI. Can't think of a better car on the market. The engineering and quality can't be matched. Unfortunately Audi decided to screw with the new models and make crappy interiors. This SQ8 will be probably my last Audi I will buy and try to keep it as far as it goes.

No man, he didn't say that we don't deserve cars like these. As you know very well we have speed limits and there in Germany they don't, that is what Martijn is saying. At his natural habit, meaning you can drive faster than 120km/h. You can't go fast here because speed limit is 120km/h and the cops are sometimes quite wakey-wakey, unless you have some cool drink money for the traffic officers.
What is this with reviewer and Donald Trump?) Seems like he obsessed with him 😂😂😂. And car review is weird also. I mean it’s basically the same car as 5 years ago (they could have changed interior for a bit, for example) but Martin talks about this car like it’s a top #1 of all cars. And how he adores it. Was it the same with previous SQ8? Seems like Audi wants to prove something here). But I dunno know, it’s just me!
SQ8 feels like having sex with a condom,thats why i never understand people buy8ng cars like these. You either go full RS Q8 or just with a regular q8. Those inbetween cars are🤮
what about the terrible 48v start stop system with the aux generator starter thing that breaks and leaves people stranded or the fact that the engine will be coming out after 40k miles or less with a broken valve spring, not to mention this is a womans car
I do have an audi and a mercedes, but audi en mercedes interiors arent comparable man, dont say such a wrong thing anymore, mercedes is way superior if you talk about interiors.
Mercedes aonly look good for the eye but once you touch and feel it they start to rattle. They are built worse than Tesla cars from China. And I have been in a 0km G63.
Every new mercedes interior looks like festival in small village or every apartment in red light district. Bright green / pink / red lights all around - where is that sophistication and class which we can see now only on Concorso d'Elegazna villa d'Este? It's all gone long ago because now the target for mercedes is young boy or Karen who can take mercedes with 0 deposit lease. Shame!
Outstanding Review. Just a gift from Audi for true Audi fans. Incredible…
yeah Audi seems to turn back to the old good days when they did not gave a fck about ev ecc
I like your reviews,keeping it real and trustworthy,both of you!Great job!
Big fan of the revised SQ8. Thanks for the review. 👌
Audi has been cooking lately with these S and RS models
Lovely! Seems like I ordered the right car! Mine will be white on black with red stitching. 🤩 Delivery in august.
Nice! When did you order?

What work do you do? These things are super expensive (but worth it!)
Man I love the wheels on these. Very nice.
Excellent review! I enjoyed it much. Can’t wait for the RSQ8 Performance review

Would love to you drive the new SQ7, and compare it to this SQ8..😂
x4 M40i 2024 model would be awesome 👏

Can you do the SQ7 when it comes out?
SQ7 tis even better
I made with SQ7 TFSI 100k km in 1.5 year and still waiting every morning to start the drive)
Best machine for the money, hands down. 😤🇩🇪🏁
Awesome video! Everything you say in this video is just so true🤩
I also love this car,just filmed it.
Great video, a car I have had on my list for a while.
3:48 Audi interior is solid, Audi has not tried to make a fantasy interior in plastic like Mercedes and BMW.
My favorite is rsq8
Audi lover
8:13 but before we hit the autobahn, wait..
It's not TDI anymore??? YES!
04:07 "Lets turn this into a car"
Great looking spec. What is the exterior color and black out grill combo called? And the 23” wheels…what are those? Thanks
Why is this MILES better than the X6 M60i?
It’s not
Different class of vehicle
Yes, definetly
What are you talking about 😂
really considering upgrading to one of these from my sq5....how are the brakes?
Please do new GLE 53 Hybrid! 544 HP
Can you do an Autobahn review of the Audi A6 Allroad?
With a car like this, the price and complexity of repairs is a feature not a problem. You show off to the world how you can afford it.
So just get an sq8 upgrade turbo and ecu remap and you have an RSQ8
9:37 What a beautiful road man. Which autobahn is that? :D

The turbos in an RSQ8 are not bigger than the SQ8.
I wait for rsq3 review
Review the video of Suzuki fronx
Did it hit your G spot?
V8 make a deal))))
RS6 v SQ8 ??

Audi the best
Bro forgot to turn on the camera for the speedometer

If only it wasn't so unreachingly expensive.
A used one with 130.000 km on the clock still goes for 70.000 eur.

1:02 if you are the Donald Trump of car journalism you would love a white leather interiors with golden accents. A bit like a bmw XM maybe 😅?

It's not

Here in America these get their boots smoked by camaros hellcats and civics 😂😅
You are dutch, so you are an orange man too 😜
Obviously theyre dutch its literally in the name of the channel
also is it really the best interior in its class???? its old now and boring and the haptic screens are kinda crappy,
Old ones looks way better, more sophisticated and expensive
No leather dash? 🥴
yeah this is a pared down simple, non complicated car hahaha
old interior
Eh so youre saying here in South Africa we dont deserve these cars?!?
no,
you do not

You either go full RS Q8 or just with a regular q8.

man maybe you want a V8 but cannot afford the big turbos one, tf u talking about dude
maybe I don’t want to be paying for kids for the next 18 years
You clearly have not driven both cars
The review is misleading, is not all new, is just face lift, and is hardly any changes, but cosmetic ,another marketing trick from Audi.
So when he says he drove the car in Cape Town but now its in its natural environment in Germany WHAT IS HE TRYING TO SAY 🙄
That you can drive fast on the autobahn and not in cape town... stop trying to take everything out of context
