2024 Audi Q8 E-Tron

A 2024 freshening added Q8 to the E-Tron along with a larger battery which gives a 285-mile driving range vs. the original model's 220-mile range. Horsepower is increased from 355 to 402. A three-motor SQ8 version brings 496 hp and an EPA estimated range of up to 253 miles. The DC fast charger acceptance rate is now 170 kW. This all-electric luxury midsized SUV is a treat to drive. It has standard all-wheel drive, a luxurious cabin, and a healthy list of active safety features. It's quick and super-quiet, which makes the Q8 E-Tron glide along smoothly and effortlessly. The standard air suspension gives the Audi a supremely comfortable ride. Although handling is responsive, it's no match for the BMW iX or Jaguar I-Pace. A hatchback version called the Sportback is available. The E-Tron GT is a coupelike sedan that's based on the Porsche Taycan. AEB with pedestrian detection, AEB highway, BSW, RCTW, ACC, LCA, LKA, and LDW come standard. 2025 is the final model year for the Q8 E-Tron.

Brand context

About Audi

Audi sells a wide range of sedans and SUVs with luxurious interiors and lots of technology. Several of its SUVs and sedans have earned CR’s recommendation for balancing driver and passenger comfort with smooth power and nimble handling. In most cases, buyers shopping for sedans and SUVs in the luxury category should consider Audi’s options. Fit and finish quality reaches even the lowest-priced models. However, like most luxury cars from European brands, maintenance and repair costs can be expensive, making used Audis difficult to recommend. Typically, Audi identifies sedans with the letter A, SUVs with the letter Q, and numbers that increase according to size. The Q3 is a compact crossover while the Q8 is a three-row SUV. Models that start with S or RS are tuned for performance and have more power, stiffer suspension, and more aerodynamic exterior details. All-electric models have the E-tron suffix.
