Believe it or not I actually still like the SQ7 the most. For styles too. It's more me. But just as the Q7 did, the Q8 will grow and we'll see better and more powerful engine options in the years to come. Great work Audi.
Different markets get different tech. Usually Europe gets the latest tech because the US Government has to approve the new technology is very safe for the mass to adopt it
I've driven a Q8 at my local Audi dealership and it is incredible. I have an S4 and not an SUV fan at all, but it really is a great vehicle and will get a lot of attention. For the price it's hard to beat and will win over some BMW and Range Rover people. Nice job Audi!
I've driven this too and it really is a great driving experience. The refresh on the 2nd gen looks ugly in my opinion, so I think these will hold value.

Just purchased a Certified Used Audi Q8 this year and fell in love with the SUV. I got a a 2019 Premium Plus with the year one package in a Daytona grey looks the same as the one in the video and this thing is bad ass in person. In my area there’s not a lot of these around and it gets a lot of attention. Drives great, has enough power for me and I had a 392 Challenger and Charger. Happy with the purchased would recommend anyone to view and test drive one.
The SQ8 is the sweet spot of performance v’s cost. It’s the same 4.0 V8 petrol engine as in the RSQ8, just slightly down-tuned, still awesomely fast (4.1 0-60mph). Lovely motor!
Every review you do on your channel is so positive man, you sound like you want to buy every car you review. Tell us some negatives otherwise it's so boring.
I finally know what I'm getting for my first car.... A used caddilac. The Q8 is still a nice car, but I don't have $80,000 or more to spend on a vehicle. Divide that by 10, and that's my budget. Then again, I have 6+ years to think about it, so hopefully it depreciates quickly.
Nice video and I agree this one is a good looker. What are your thoughts on Jaguar F-Pace? That one looks sharp too. Interested to know your thoughts on that one as well. Thanks
The SQ8 or even the Q8 with the adaptive suspension will handle amazingly.. the SQ7 has a 48V system and hence very intelligent suspension and chassis and is a beast around the corners.. of course it won’t beat a GT3RS but for a SUV it’s really good. So the upcoming SQ8 will have that too I guess
Uh, the RSQ8 and SQ8 are the ones with the 8 cylinder, a la the Urus. I will say I like the Q8 six as it’s a nice ride, fast enough too. I might consider it or the X5
Really nice job on the video- such a beautiful car; love all the tech. I just wish these European cars had the reliability that Lexus, Infinity, and Acura have.
I actually started watching all of your video’s... and they are awesome... still I’d work on you audio a bit... just to give some critisism ... have a nice day!
It will never get feel like Lambo. It can be small urus but can't be an urus. It will remain Audi and it doesn't get 10 piston brake caliper it doesn't have lambo seats it doesn't have roar of Lambo it doesn't have 7 driving modes it doesn't have v8
FreeZze yes but have you saw the exterior next to each other? Probably not. There are so many more points I could cover by cba to write it down with my two thumbs lol. I may come back to you when I’m on my pc.
I can’t get over the nasty out of place looking secondary headlight assembly under the main one. It just distracts from the entire front and ruins it’s sleek and poised appearance. Also interior styling is quite dull. Maybe some more pop in regards to the wooden accents would help a bit. But that’s just me
Any1 else thing this is one of the best looking suv out ?
I own this exact model and it’s one of the best Audi’s on the market. It’s amazing!
G-Class
Urus
Benteyga
Cullinan
Q-8
Mike Arredondo saw one on the highway today, that’s why I’m here. The wife loved it too, I think where getting one

That front light turning with your steering wheel is pretty common in more expensive cars in Europe.
yeah 2014 ML300s have those
In india it comes with 15k to 20k cars also
Like mahindra xuv500
Iron bolt yeah, I had it in my £5k 2006 Mercedes ML320!

Zesty Lobster Tail the 1968 Citroën DS has those (hydraulic instead of electric)

Facts he said this 4yrs ago so true

That Audi is badass. Nice video. 2nd viewer!
What camera do you use and what editor so you use?
*ONLY* $80,000? What are you Jeff Bezos or something......
Everything is relative, compared to the Urus' 200k+ price it is "only 80,000"
Was your brain turned off right before you read $80k? lol
Thats Hella cheap in my country this cost 156.000$
@@mikseh6192 More like 200k
Basically the same price as an Escalade or a fully loaded Denali truck..

How has it been during your ownership! Looking to get w certified one myself
7:32 are we gonna talk about it?
😂😂😂
Played it 100 times😂😂😂
😂😂😂
i dont get it. what do you mean?
Sorin Vladu he voicecracked lol
Basically it’s a urus but without the power just put a RS7 engine in it
No
Mr BossUP wouldn’t be surprised if Audi adds a V8. Then it will be an R8 (Q8) and Huracán (Urus) battle all over again.
Maybe RSQ8
@@ajlee6933 that would be dope
@@ajlee6933 They are. /watch?v=vOv8xVSsQzU
Looks really good in person, caught my eye on the freeway
Heyyy! Hope you have a wonderful day guys!
You tooo
You as well
God bless all of you
@@nexxyyy1 same to you brother!!!
I will if you could be my honorable new subscriber! :)
Can’t wait for SQ8!
You mean you can't wait for the RSQ8
Hands down, you’ve got the best review on the Q8 👌🏼 thank you 🙏🏼

yup and you only need an APR Stage 1 tune and you got an RSQ8 numbers!
Great review! I think Q8 might not be the best looking AUDI but it is definitely the coolest looking one. 🚘
?
Saw this on road in person and I thought it was a Porsche from afar, its beautiful
Very professional review. Thorough. Classic VV. 5 stars man.
I said this car was a Urus with a V6 just yesterday at the Chicago Auto Show!
BusMaster99, you should go to NAAS. (North American Auto Show)
What's with all the "..." comments I get?
Yo I was there
Awesome Audi Q8
True
This vehicle only looks good in black. The headlights look weird in other colours because the bottom section doesn’t blend in.
White Looks also nice. But when it Comes to Colours like orange it becomes really strange.
Headlights remind me of the new mustang.
Daytona Grey for the win.
Did anybody catch the check engine light on in the initial dash display? I love Audi but fool me once..
you don t even know what it means
Next video: Straight piping the Audi q8 - And it sounds amazing!
What cost more, the Q8 or that gold Patek Nautilus Chrono?
Killer car. Just wait for the RS Q8 👌
is that the 458 speciale aperta replacement?
World record for use of the word " actually " within a 20 minute period. 😂
Every review you do on your channel is so positive man, you sound like you want to buy every car you review. Tell us some negatives otherwise it's so boring.
Just like Shmee, every car seems great. Ffs guys hardly a review.
That Q8 looks great
I’m excited for the RS Q8.
I was at Sunset GT today and I looked at Lambo Urus. I noticed the same thing. The interiors are relatively similar. I like Audi Q8 too.
Looks better than that hideous Uranus. Audi has style.
Have you seen the Lamborghini in person though? I ask because I didn’t like it until I saw one in person.
at least the "Uranus" has a real exhaust and good power
I wanna see Uranus.
@@MattiAntsuK EHAHAHAHAHAH
Jano Broekmans Urus is a sport car, wait for Rsq8 and you will see a real exhaust and real power
lights turn left and right. my car has Lights that turn on when you turn the steering wheel to illuminate the right or the left side.
I finally know what I'm getting for my first car....
A used caddilac.
The Q8 is still a nice car, but I don't have $80,000 or more to spend on a vehicle. Divide that by 10, and that's my budget. Then again, I have 6+ years to think about it, so hopefully it depreciates quickly.
Last time I was this early, my girlfriend left me....
Just kidding. I don't have a girlfriend.... 😧😧
You don't need one.
I have aids
Last time you was this early your girlfriend met me.
Cause she left you 😂
Naughty naughty
Who think this is bad version of doug de muro
haha they are two different people doug focuses more on quircks and features
@@wyclifejoseph8463 Yeah but Parker has a face you just want to Punch! Square in the nose...
Whats the doug score
Los Pollos Hermanos yeah
He does not have a column on autotrader.com/oversteer
Does RSq8 coming to US? With Urus engine and power
Stefan Ciganovic No. because it will undermine the Urus
Yes, it is coming.
It was pretty cool meeting you at a Elite Tuner my dude. 👌👌
Is the background noise muted or the car is really that quiet? I didn't even hear the engine. Quite impressed.
6:11 When a car almost take out my door !! Lol
I can’t wait for the RS q8
The Q8 is an awesome vehicle!
Test it at big bear rd ! Audio what equipment has in there ?
Nice video and I agree this one is a good looker. What are your thoughts on Jaguar F-Pace? That one looks sharp too. Interested to know your thoughts on that one as well. Thanks
Doug already did that Parker, come on man, but awesome review overall as always
Who cares Doug followed Parker many times with far worse reviews and no one says anything because they know Doug's more interested in silly quirks
Audi does it right.
Why do you sell your 458 Speciale Aperta???
Nice video! Btw, when did you get that beautiful Patek??
A car with Audi logo is Audi. A car with Lamborghini logo is Lamborghini. That’s what the branding works
The SQ8 or even the Q8 with the adaptive suspension will handle amazingly.. the SQ7 has a 48V system and hence very intelligent suspension and chassis and is a beast around the corners.. of course it won’t beat a GT3RS but for a SUV it’s really good. So the upcoming SQ8 will have that too I guess
We gonna ignore the check engine light? Or is that some sort of notification letting you know the accessory power is on but engine off?
Leonardo Espitiarobles engines off
I'd love to see what the rsq8 can do. Seen videos of it testing.
Q8 or a Velar. Which would you pick?
Does it come with apple carplay?
Does this vehicle offer a happy ending? $80k + taxes; yikes, how about depreciation?
I test drove it today. The interior and frameless doors are nice. BUT the deal killer was the 1-2 seconds turbo lag.
Nothing a map can't fix!
@@benhodgson2542 I don't understand your comment.
Parker, where's your 458 Speciale Aperta ????
Why did you sell the Aperta?
Great quality video. Would like to see a BMW X5 xdrive50i
Wow the interior and features it has is incredible !
Wait for the sq8
Diogo Rocha there is a RSQ8 coming...
@@gertrexx2178 even better
@@therocksince99 I can do better mksjeoe982828827777888888888ssssrsss
Ger Trexx hehe wait for the srsq8 :]
Can it change lanes automatically like mercedes and tesla.
Saw an SQ8 on the street in Amsterdam last week, that grill looks menacing
Wouldn’t that be RSQ8? That’s like saying Audi A3 and RS3 are the same
Uh, the RSQ8 and SQ8 are the ones with the 8 cylinder, a la the Urus. I will say I like the Q8 six as it’s a nice ride, fast enough too. I might consider it or the X5
Did you really sell the Aperta? as Life of Palos is reporting?
Great review!
Awesome Video Parker like always. If I had the cash I would buy that model. I drove a Q5 awesome car but I like the Q8
RSQ8 would be a proper match for the Urus
I sat in this at the Portland autoshow. It was amazing
They should have had this 3D VR camera in Bird Box. Nice video Parker.
If you want to look at a more SUV-ish SUV, you have to check out the Sequoia. It will make this look like just a tall sedan.
Really nice job on the video- such a beautiful car; love all the tech. I just wish these European cars had the reliability that Lexus, Infinity, and Acura have.
Audi has the best reliability rating of all the European brands, I believe it ranks higher than Lexus
@@travismorris9911 Higher than Lexus? Not sure about that- everyone I know that owns an Audi makes frequent visits to the mechanic!
Check engine light?
Twin scroll single turbo??
it looks SOOOO good especially in black
Menacing say the lease! Love it in Black
Enjoy ur vids mate 👍🏻 plus come across genuine
Check engine on?
I actually started watching all of your video’s... and they are awesome... still I’d work on you audio a bit... just to give some critisism ... have a nice day!
It is worth it and more, in my opinion if you are looking for luxury this SUV is the best in class
Love this design and the first gen X6.
In a BMW X5 air suspension comes standard
Nkululeko Mndaweni and real exhaust pipes!!
I love the X5, but the looks of the Q8 are on another level. X5 looks dated on the exterior and Q8 looks ahead of its time.
@@ryanb8736 true Q8 is spectacular looking SUV, but pound for pound X5 is the better car.
your lights have to be in the auto setting for it to do the rear light dance
they used to have a 4.2 engine on the q7 don't know why they got rid of it
Last time I was this early ace was still alive
It will never get feel like Lambo. It can be small urus but can't be an urus. It will remain Audi and it doesn't get 10 piston brake caliper it doesn't have lambo seats it doesn't have roar of Lambo it doesn't have 7 driving modes it doesn't have v8
You know urus got inspired by the q8 right
And the rsq8 will come out and will have a 4.0 v8 biturbo
FreeZze yes but have you saw the exterior next to each other? Probably not. There are so many more points I could cover by cba to write it down with my two thumbs lol. I may come back to you when I’m on my pc.
@@jayponzy0430 and i know how the urus looks like
FreeZze yes but what about exterior. That’s screaming Lamborghini interior is still very nice on both cars.
V6 come on Audi .. 80k I want this suv but, not without a V8
Only a matter of time before the plastic on the back of driver/passenger seat fall off and the headliner has to be reupholstered... 🤣🤣
It's an Audi, not a Ford...lol!
@@s6driver900 Every Audi, Volkswagen I have ever had(a lot), did it.... LOL if yours is new just wait and let me know!
Wow what an epic car! Looks so good, I’d prefer the air suspension a bit lowered and I prefer the European S Line sports seats.
The only thing that looks better than this SUV is the Patek.
The SQ8 is ganna be sick!
I can’t get over the nasty out of place looking secondary headlight assembly under the main one. It just distracts from the entire front and ruins it’s sleek and poised appearance. Also interior styling is quite dull. Maybe some more pop in regards to the wooden accents would help a bit. But that’s just me
I need to say it is the only one new Audi that I like. But I'm still in love with the Mercedes GLS.
Draped in sumptuous leather... what a poet
It's no beauty queen, but it is a clear step forward from the Bimmer X6 and Benz GLE
Needs a V8 option, which I'm sure is coming next year
I've been waiting for this because i was stuck with the Q7
You are the Jaime Lannister of TH-cam (Silver Spoon Edition).
Classic... of course it has a check engine light😂 8:45
Yesterday’s show at Royalty Exotic cars was amazing especially because you were there
I’m on the fences about ordering this or a Mercedes c 300 😩😩.
Broken Dream Gamers definitely q8
Lexus 570 I think ima go with q8 I’m 6”3 and looking to have kids in next couple years. Plus I’m already with Audi so the transition should be smooth
I’m 6’1 with 2 kids I had the test drive earlier it was great. Cheers and congratulations
Lexus 570 thank you, did you get it? Also do you think there’s much of a diff between the trims?
You should do a review of the new Ram 1500 limited, pretty impressive
