  • @nikb6528
    @nikb6528 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Joe, how would you say this compares driving wise to say a Stelvio Quadrifoglio or an X3M? Or, even, to an RS6?

    • @mfundomayila6618
      @mfundomayila6618 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Nik B - RS Q8 being heavier than the X3m and spotting air suspension will naturally drive better. Being the fastest SUV at the ring, we know it handles better as well. However, the RS6 naturally handles and drives better purely because of it's lower center of gravity. With th X3m, Beemer failed to hit the balance between sporty and comfort and rather made it more sporty. So while it handles like a true Beemer, the ride itself is unforgiving - even in comfort mode actually. You're welcome bro.
