Audi unleashes the 2025 RS Q8, the ultimate expression of performance within their SUV lineup. Two distinct variants offer the thrill of a hand-built 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine.
The base RS Q8 delivers a mighty 592 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque, launching from 0-62 mph in a neck-snapping 3.8 seconds and reaching a limited top speed of 155 mph.
Craving even more exhilaration? The RS Q8 Performance ups the ante with a specially tuned version of the V8, producing 632 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque.
This translates to a staggering 0-62 mph time of 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 174 mph, achieved with the legendary quattro all-wheel-drive system and an eight-speed Tiptronic transmission.
Equipped with Launch Control in both models, the 2025 RS Q8 rewrites the rulebook for high-performance SUVs.
These two beasts, especially the range-topping RS Q8 Performance, redefine what an SUV can achieve. With a record-setting lap time at the Nurburgring, the RS Q8 Performance proves its dominance on the track.
But this duo isn’t just about raw speed; precision handling is assured thanks to a collection of cutting-edge features.
From the all-wheel steering system for tight corners to the adaptive air suspension that fine-tunes ride height, every aspect is designed for a thrilling driving experience.
Both models boast impressive stopping power with substantial disc brakes, with the Performance model offering the option of even more resilient carbon ceramic discs.
Customization is key, allowing you to tailor your high-performance SUV to your taste. A variety of exterior colors and trims are available, while the interior envelops you in luxury with Alcantara accents, sustainable Dinamica microfiber upholstery, and sports seats that hug you during spirited drives.
