- This is the all-new Audi Q8. It’s Audi’s new flagship SUV, coming in with a coupe-style roofline along with one of the biggest grilles we’ve ever seen! The question is, when the Q7 offers a cheaper price tag and two extra seats, does the Q8 offer better value for money? Join Mat in his latest review to see what you think!

“You could buy five fully grown live cows for that much money. I know that because I looked it up, was thinking of getting one as a pet. After all, if you got bored of it you could just eat it.” - Mat Watson
That's how many cows are needed for all the leather in one of these
cow will eat you someday
When he said that I was like 😳🐮🐮🐮
can’t drive a cow though can you.
I run to the comments section so fast I nearly broke my legs 😂
This is probably the first car ever to come standard with a Built in front BBQ grill,
Yes lexus
What about Jamie Oliver's Land Rover Defender
No way, the New Toyota Avalon is the ultimate grill for the family.
yes and the new x7 is the second one
You guys don't watch Doug Demuro? The Cadillac Escalade Has a even bigger grill!
I need to get back to studying: I need to make enough money to make this a standard purchase.
Great review! Entertaining!
What do you study
You don’t earn money by studying you earn it when you work for it after studying

Kuwait will be very happy with the name :-)
Jeroen Trappers nav said KUWAIT city😂
Jeroen Trappers We already use Q8 as short name for kuwait 😂
Haha im from and i find that funny😂💓 and we already use Q8😁.
J A S P E R well done genuis
Hey Kuwait is my city :D
Honestly this has to be one of the best looking SUVs. It reminds me of Bumblebee from Transformers. It is very futuristic and elegant. I love it !
How does a Q8 look anything like a Chevy Camaro?
Firemarioflower maybe the colour, why you being a dick? Dickhead

Still makes sense
Matt Watson = The GOAT in car reviews
Benjatainment Mat is a solid 9/10 but Daddy Doug is forever the GOAT
Doug DeOneToMurdorYou
Well if i have the Yugo, probably yes!
🐐
@@smallshaq8521 Doug's voice is irritating. Too squeaky for my taste.
Mat is the type of person to try to fit a big bottle of water in his back pocket
Wrong channel isn't it
The sentence doesnt fit with Mat's name as much as it does with Doug's
Go to Doug channel for more jokes:)) I made some 1k likes at some jokes 😂
Yep
Amr Zriek yep
@@SteelRoninTT That's the kind of monster we're dealing with.
Where are manufacturers getting their info regarding people actually liking touch screens all over the place? I absolutely cannot fathom how a person would prefer a touch screen to a dial or button in regards to climate controls and seat adjustments...
You must love the new Volvo system :D
Most people love them, and you're never gonna buy one of these cars, so you're irrelevant
To be fair 70% of people who will buy these cars will be over the age of 40/50 they won't even know about half of the features
I know how you feel, I can’t even imagine trying to faff with a touch screen, taking my eyes off the road when I just simply want feel for the button to change the airflow...
@@caustic279 Any real statistics you can provide to back your claims? Also, your attempt at foreseeing my future decisions is just childish. And i'm perfectly aware of my irrelevance to the manufacturers' decision making but i'm still in every right to express my opinion on a free space such as youtube. A side note: the only video in your profile is an experminent with some lens effects portraying a very young man. That leads me to believe you have reasons to be childish and you are even more irrelevant than me since you probably are not even allowed to legally purchase and drive a vehicle.
‘I can’t reach the pedals man’ honestly the combination of his entertainment and knowledge is amazing
Can’t wait for the RSQ8!
Rebadged Lambo Urus for sure
@@yudhabagaskara98 Well the Urus is based on the Q8, so saying it's rebadged won't make sense.
@@Vazin other way around
@@btjh1855 Well, the MLB platform was developed by Audi and shared among the whole VAG group, so yeah, the Urus is based on the Q8.
Yudha Bagaskara Lambo Urus is RSQ8
Finally an SUV coupe that looks really nice, and dorsnt compromise back seat head space. Nailed it Audi.
@Amine WOOF Fair enough if thats your opinion. From what ive seen, people do tend to like this more than the x6 and gle. I think the front looks aggressive and mean, and the rear three quarter angle when Matt is demonstrating the boot, is stunning. What is it you dislike about it?
@@AnimalzyNL he dislike the 4 rings ... lol
And its nice to see in person, like you have cars that are "nice" on pictures and ugly in real life too(mercedes Gle)
Looks like toy, plastic toy
Adorable Matt! You are so much fun to watch and make reviews entertaining! Big kudos to u
I like it because it’s essentially a “cost effective” urus !
Looks great, interiors seem nice, and a triple black look would be great ! 😁
Yes
Matt don't forget your phone
Frameless windows, but the rear ones just go half way down. That's sort of stupid...
This is a family car mostly , so thats for childrens
The way you explained the grill is on another level
I was sold on the celery holder
Jeremy Clarkson also was
can you afford it?
I might be biased but this "coupé" SUV looks quite handsome (compared to X6), the roofline & its height it's just in the right proportion 👌🏼i so like the interior it's slick & modern, but still imma stick with my statement that in general "Coupé" SUVs are stupid.
@Cave Edico there's a few main reasons, 1st the proportion it's so awkward (look at the bmw x4, x6, or tesla model x), 2nd you don't get the practicality of a suv because of the roofline cuts the rear seats & boot space, 3rd people who bought coupe wanted a low driving position which again you don't get that in those vehicle because it's suv
@@NuhanHidayat do u speak for every coupe person? guess not i had the s class coupe but didnt like the low seating position for a short while in between i had the gle coupe 400 which is a beauty inside and out and now im waiting for the rsq8 because suv coupes r the most beautiful cars imo
@@tigerkitty7371 First of all nobody can make an opinion that'll suit every single person and you have absolute right as a human being to have different opinion, and let me digest your statement lil bit deeper, so you had S class coupé but you didn't like the driving position? If you hate low driving position then don't buy a car buy suv instead (and you did) and about the gle coupe . . . Yeah that's ugly too, sorry not sorry
@@NuhanHidayat nah its sexy same as nearly every other german and british suv tbh
X6 is a mess and ugly looking
Brilliant review as usual matkeep up the good work
Mat really goes a long way to make these entertaining. Start of the video caught me off guard af

Nope your wrong
I love your car reviews Matt...you are Excellent!!
Love it, great to see a bold new design from Audi. Roll on the RS Q8 👌
This guys the best reviewer; he has a great personality, witty and covers all the bases!
Excellent
Mat, I have to say that I have watched videos presenting since you first started, you were good then, but, now, you're great. You do a really good job - with all cars. Thanks for being entertaining too. L.
Make it happen Mat!!
Alpine A110 vs Alfa 4c vs Cayman..
The result is obvious tho
Cayman > A110 > 4c
I own one, drove all 3 of them. What do you want to know?
Vs abarth 124
skycrap I guess you own the 4c?
@@lordtesco fenomenal guess!
I just love his intros 😂😂
The Audi Q8 is a beautiful SUV. I like the fact that the Q8 is very spacious in the back and have two USB ports and a 12 volt jack. the dashboard and the infotainment of the Q8 are awesome. the Q8 design is gorgeous. I like the fact that the Q8 four wheels turned when you make a turned.
blimey! at 6'21" did you actually say 'heat seating' instead of 'seat heating'...??? Matt, I absolutely LOVE your reviews!!! I'm a crazy car fan since like euhhhh FOREVER, and i go through tens and tens of car channels on CZcams... yours is BY FAR the best one out there!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
That starting had me laughing for a good 3 minutes.
They should include the SQ7s V8 Diesel as well. I think that’s the best option for that sort of car.
agree - just ordered over this. went for the engine and non touchscreens over the looks
@@Graham1786 They will most likely have the v8 in the coming year.
Graham1786 They’re already testdriving the new sq7 and it has the same interior as the q8
Might not make the new wltp standards. Which is why there is lag, same with new Tuareg.
It is coming. And RS Q8 will probably have the same 680hp engine what the Porche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid has. Let's see...
Most comprehensive car review I ever watched.. thanks! 👍
Great review as always thanks for sharing 👍🏻
I feel for the tailgate when you force it up after the suitcase test. 😯
God damn I love Audi and their desire to do something different with their designs. Finally getting away from that "every Audi looks the same". What a quality car!
Quality? Have you driven one long enough?
VIZIN audi are shit, they were always cheaper to the like of Bmw & Mercedes so approx some 15 years ago they decided to bump thier prices up to the German rivals. So they look classy and expensive! Makes me laugh you could buy an audi a5 front wheel drive? Bmw & Mercedes would never do that to a car in that segment because it destroys the handling!
@@commenterperson4481 What's your take on quality then?
SPECTRE AMG Have you drive one before? Look at your name you seem biased.
@@MISTA_LOVAH Funny how BMW & Mercedes fans always get so defensive when being confronted with Audi, it's like you guys are scared that Audi is and will be better. And in what terms does FWD destroy handling? It's safer in the wet and during snow.
By far the best car review channel out there.
Oh, I love the bit when Mat jumped out and said woof
wow the new urus is really cool
I wish one day I can finally afford these super nice cars lol
You will
I hope you make it. With hard work and passion you can do it. I believe in you.
In Sha ALLAH
Reviewed one recently as well. Great video, awesome car!
Literally seen my first on today, they just look absolutely huge, but a low and long huge which I kinda like, would like to see a lowered one with a set of spacers
Good job, Audi! Nice looking SUV ✌️
Perfect car. So much better looking than all its rivals.
On the contrary Matt. I think it looks amazing!
The beginning was so coooool 🤣🤣😜 and the carwow Stick as well 😆
Please review the new Peugeot 508
Peugeot? Ew.
Yeah. Trash
Mat hates the French. He wont review it
Yet he loves the 308, 3008 & 5008. Even says the interior of the 3008 is better than any VW!
@@robking6968 I own a 2012 vw cc and i can believe that. Its a rattling nightmare. My 2007 mondeo mever rattled. I will upgrade to the 508 next.
7:10 Punjab radio 😂😂 punjabi people will be happy
Whatt
Hey mat, didn't know the Q8 already has the heat seating feature.. Good that you pointed out..
Great review as usual Matt, But I would like to see you do a comparison test of the latest SUV's ie; this new Audi Q8 vs the new Bmw X5 M50D vs the new Mercedes GLE, to see which one in your opinion would be the best all round buy.
That looks great!
0:12 unless you see it, you can't unsee it 😂
Hi...nice work man...what do u think about Polestar P1 @
You constantly amaze me with your thoughts on Audi models which are no more than premium badged Volkswagen!!
‘The elastic is a little bit saggy, like some old knickers’

The beginning is hilarious :D
Your video production quality makes the car look more beautiful.
Great review!
Porsche Cayenne 2018 review
Please. 😎
9:15 golden moment 😂
Great SUV and entertaining review- typical Mat. Now please more sensible choice- comparison review of Santa Fe, Kodiak and Sorento in 7 seater versions. Usual comparison plus how they are with airbags- safety for third row of seats as that's where mostly the most important passengers- small kids spend time..Thanks
Matt on point, infotaiment is much easyer and safer to use in Audi Q7, with rotary wheel and you dont have to take your eyes of the road so much and I really hate touch screen and streaching your arm all the time. I drive the new A4 with MMI plus, virtual cocpit and that system is great and safe !
Love this car
Audi always welcome.. I love this company👍👍👍👌👌👌👏👏👏
The intro is perfect.
What a great opening!! I like it.
Such a beautiful magnificent looking beast....
Your phone's in the pocket next to the steering wheel, Mat!
best intro ever...
Best intro!!!
I love the Q8...🤗😍
it looks sweet... 😍
Please make a review of the new Santa Fe!!
You are a great reviewer Matt!
I know the voice commands work for the heated seats on my A6. I ordered a Q8 yesterday so will find out in a few months if it works on a Q8. Saying "Set heated seats to level 3" usually does the job!
6:47 IS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON LMFAOOOO
D K Boy... ever been in a car? This is standard when ignition is on with engine off.
Matt please do a bmw X7 review
U wish is here he made a BMW X7 review
Great video
🤣🤣🤣perfect description of the front grill
I think in this era only matt is the one who does best car review with proper info and comedy.
End the SUV mania, bring back the gentleman saloon!
Wagon > all
I agree however i quite like Audi’s approach. They still make the brilliant a6 7 and 8, the q8 is just a viable alternative
@@the-boring-car-guy Except you can't get the RS6, RS4 as a saloon which is mind boggling as they try to compete with the M5, M3, C63 and E63, and there is no A3 5 door hatchback it's just a dull mini estate.
MadProductionsink if they make the rs7 and rs5 sportback why would they make saloon versions as well?
Need to bring back the gentleman, first.
I love the trunk of this thing
Right now you're watching the best auto review person on CZcams. As always, top job Mat!
U left ur phone in the cubby bruh 🌚don’t forget it
Sir,I have seen almost all your videos and I have only one concern.
All your videos have very low volume output.
Please take this into consideration.
I agree with you...
No problem for me... Maybe you should get better device with better speakers..
@@nicemax9310 that is just too rude!
Im using a oneplus 6.
And I'm not the only one who is complaining the same.
Better don't talk rudely to your subscribers.
@@devnarayan4159 Haha what an attitude, and im not carwow, im just a random guy, you seriously planned what your going to say, but well oneplus 6 should be enough. Maybe you have faulty device. My honor play, no problems.
@@nicemax9310 I got an s8 and it's pretty low for me as well. I can hear fine, but I almost have to have it full volume. So it's not just him or his device
This ist he best review ever you’re a really funny man
Saw the Q8 in blue colour and i was amazed
Audi Q8❤️❤️
4:59 mhh...is the ipad still in the boot🤔
@carwow Why havn't you done a proper review of the Seat Leon Cupra? It seems to be the best bang for your buck hot hatch in my country. Cheers and thanks for all the awesome videos
Heat-seating and celery holders, where else can you find those on CZcams?
This is the best SUV currently on the market eazyyyy
Bentley Bentayga and Rolls Royce Cullinan?
For the 65,000 price tag it’s definitely the best of those bunch
Bas Corver but these are still much better
Cullinan is the ugliest suv ever made...
Different category...cant really compare them but it is better than the X5 and def more pretty than the X6
Who thinks that the q8 look is better than that of the new Q7 facelift
👇🏻
This is just a dream of a sub!
U do not know how long I've been waiting for this loool
You can get the Q8 in any colour you like so long as it's orange with grey seats...
I have a theory, they send the reviewers these dodgy colours to give them sales exposure.
@@JohnnyMotel99 I hope VW group realizes that advertising new released cars with atrocious colours (like that yellow/gold-ish in the new Q8) doesn't make them more special, but hinders their design beauty.
fake exhaust? why? i dont get it. does this save money? saves space? whats the deal with all the fake exhausts?
Yes, it does save money, but it's more complicated than that. By using fake exhausts, manufacturers can, for example, use different rear bumper designs without needing to change the design of the exhaust system. For example, the S-line and non S-line versions of the Q8 will have different bumper designs but use the same exhaust layout. Also, many cars that have minor rear-end collisions will just need to replace the rear bumpers and not the entire exhaust system (dependant on the damage of course). There are also other factors related to thermodynamics/physics, but I don't know too much on that but I am sure you can research it if you are really interested. In the end, it is cost saving and really doesn't make much of a difference, to be honest. You might think the fake exhausts look ugly, but a potential buyer might not care at all about the fake exhausts. It is just aesthetics, and there are significantly more important factors to consider when buying a car than how the exhaust system looks. If they can save money whilst not negatively impacting sales, then why not do it?
Yes its a money issue, they cut costs so they can make more profit.
sfafety regulations due to kids touching exhausts and burning themselves
Fake exhausts are inexcusable
@notformebeaky Government will just add taxes to the electricity
Gearbox delay os there to walk around the new emission tests (WLTP).
Sir you are so friendly so funnily showing cars that's so nice and I like you and I like cars too I like to see you're cars vidieos wen new cars come to market I look for your video for that car
you are supper man
