Nice review keep up the good work fellas
Gents, your reviews would be better if you could be more detailed when it comes to the keyless and auto-dimming feature. Not all luxury brands offer auto-dimming on the driver and passenger side or keyless on all four doors. BMW is an example where $80K trims don't even have comfort access on the rear doors!
I’d argue to say it’s heavily refreshed. I’d say it’s a mild refresh, coming from an Audi Q7 owner and enthusiast. Great review though!
A big THANK YOU for filming the driver and front passenger seats from the second row! 🎉🎉 it gives better angle of the whole command center. Excellent review as always!!🎉🎉🎉
I have the 2023 Q8. Amazing car. Drives like a dream, very powerful, and super comfortable seats (several seven hour trips last month and my back is thanking me). Love the entertainment system. Absolutely HATE the tiny center console/storage options. Only negative thing I can think of.
While we're at it: handling is immaculate fir a car this size. There's a bit of a lag when you Floor it but the acceleration makes you forget that quickly.
Transmission is super smooth and very responsive (except when you Floor it)
Ride is very comfortable. I have 22s and would've preferred 21s maybe for slightly more comfort but that's not to say it's stiff at all. Just a personal preference.
Sound isolation is very good (mine has a single pane window I can't imagine what the double is like)
The annoying start stop isn't at all annoying here. Can hardly feel it so almost never turn it off.
Headlights are great.
Trunk space is very good.
Back seat space is huge. Don't have kids so haven't used them that much. But friends loved the experience.
What else?
@@AboutThings_byTarifI have a 2020 q8 prestige with almost all the packages, luxury, s line, black optic, air suspension, towing etc.
it’s been an absolutely phenomenal car, recently got the alternator replaced but it’s under warranty so no big deal. My only real complaints are the cheap plastic and the build quality which is just okay, for what I originally paid (97k) it’s pretty unacceptable.
I’ve been trying to find a program that would permanently disable start stop because it does bother me but i can live with it.
Absolutely love the massaging seats and premium leather and the sound system is really good already, I can’t even fathom what the advanced b&o sounds like.
You guys are awesome: consistent, entertaining, and knowledgeable. My car obsession wouldn't be nearly as satisfying without you. This Q8 has some impressive qualities but at 92 grand, it has too many shortcomings to put it in consideration. I'll keep looking, thanks in large part to your terrific reviews. Keep up the good work! Thank you.
We greatly appreciate the ongoing support! You are what makes this possible for us! Thank you!
Excellent review, happy Easter guys!
Hard to qualify this as a heavy refresh(especially with the maddening and frustrating U.I. screens), but to Audi's credit, it is one of those "pretty girls" that will always look good. I'm actually glad that at long last, a manufacturer didn't mess with success(looking at you BMW). Outside of the awful storage solutions, Audi did make good use of packaging for a "coupe" SUV. It still has a great rear seating environment.
What is a tough sale: Price! $92K?? And there are still two variants above this? Hard sale over a Porsche Cayenne Coupe, which may be a bit more expensive BUT will retain much greater value.
Love the Q8, glad to see a refresh! Great video
Great video. What happened to the Red calipers?
My favorite suv!🎉
Terrific job guys & this could be my 1st SUV.
Keep up the good work thank you❤
Thanks for the support!
Nice refresh but I wish Audi did a little more to update it especially in the interior. A bigger screen with new software would be nice, and leather on the top of the doors on all trims would be make the interior feel more premium
Excellent video guys.
Thanks so much!
Oh, the 2024 Audi! That sounds exciting! Audis are known for their sleek design, advanced technology, and luxurious features. I'm sure the 2024 model will have even more innovative upgrades and enhancements.
omg I just so sick of you doing so good i’m just kidding you have the best reviews in the world 😊
Beautiful. I just wish they had more head room in the front. I can adjust the seat back a tad to make up for it but still. Do you know, does this have the same headroom as last year's, or is it more or less? I wonder, could I get the Prestige but without the sun/moon roof so as to add more headroom back in?
The figures are identical, as the looks of the car didn’t change that much. And even if you did find one with no moonroof, it’s usually an inch or less or difference!
Bruh I’m 6’7 and have PLENTY head room. You must be a 7 footer
Never found any reason to pay more for this than equivalent Q7. You get more usable cargo space without giving up much in handling. It is a nice vehicle but does have some annoyances in storage.
Is this body shared with the vw atlas cross? Id replace the grille with the vw's 😅
It looks alright!!
Just gorgeous
Loving the Q8! I wonder why the RS Q8 looks the same as last year 🤔
I like the styling of the Q8, since I wouldn't need a third row anyway. Wondering if an Allroad wagon might be a good alternative in the Audi family.
As an Audi driver the Q8 and Q7 have the worst center consul storage and the worst cup holders EVER not to mention all the gloss black that gets scratched and finger prints and dust it’s pointless to clean . If the center consuls where better though out and the gloss black was non existent I’d get antique Audi but it’s hard to get past . Audis do handle turns and weather very well which is the main thing I like about them.
Love your videos! I’m picking up a 2019 Q8 prestige with the adaptive air suspension, luxury package, s line package and the upgrade B&O 3D system at the end of the month. So excited. I really appreciate how well the q8 has aged. There is practically no cosmetic difference between the 2019 and 2023 q8 and even this 2024 is a subtle upgrade❤
Thanks!
I have a 2021. Love the car but such a small update has me debating changing it
@@hurryupndie-ym7te so I think if you’re gaining more technology like the luxury package with the massage seats or the adaptive air suspension or the upgraded bang all some Soundsystem or you have extremely high miles then maybe go ahead and upgrade to a newer vehicle really depends on your budget. I chose 2019 with 33,000 miles on it because it was fully loadedand for the money I’m spending on it. I could’ve had maybe a 2021 or 2022 with the same miles or a little under but it would’ve only been a premium plus and not the prestige fully loaded so it really comes down to what you want and what you can justify.
@@Dragomirasreviews I am going to see what they offer me for a trade in today and if they give me a good value I’ll do it. Won’t be much difference for me but get new warranty period and small updates lol. Really sucks that they did not upgrade the interior smh. Huge opportunity missed with the other brands getting much better interiors Audi is the one that has now fallen behind
SQ8 v8 - Q8 V6
SQ7 v8 - q7 v6
I like the ''whats going oooon yutube''
I'm definitely not digging That Grill..😕 Did I hear correctly that Audi offers REMOTE START,!!!! WELL, WELL. WELCOME to 2024! That's a game changer for me!😊
Where can i buy those donuts from? Thank You 😊
Amazon haha
Audi gotta start offering more interior colors and contrast!
This is a mild refresh and I feel the overall design, interior, and digital UI is still very long in the tooth and in desperate need of a revamp
Doesn't the V6 turbo have a 48volt mild-hybrid system? You make no mention of it.
Correct
WAIT WAIT, REAL exhaust tips!? hahah! step up :P
No automatic folding back seats? At damn near 100k?
At first glance, I thought this was the Honda HRV. Funny how they all start looking similar. I'll never know why this always happens. Still a nice looking car.
Lincoln Mercury offers remote start on the key fob! Not on the app! Cmon
COME ON DOWN AND DRIVE YOUR AUDI TO LIQUOR BARN!!
Gotta film where you gotta film😂😂
Still no "brake-hold" feature uh...
I have a break hold in 2023. Very responsive.
93k for this is just ridiculous. And it’s just the Q8 with the base engine
That base engine will smoke your Supra, 911 carrera, 370Z Nismo, M2, etc..😅🤷♂️ I’d still want the S version for this kinda money though
Loaded x5 xdrive40i and mercedes gle450 are the same price wise and don't forget mercedes even offers the 580 which is even more money
Every time I use the word refresh all it means is an added expense and no real changes
Sorry but it still looks almost the same, Audi needs to up their game
The beginning is so sad. The back window can’t go down
At this point how much can you really change your vehicle that has been running on gas for its entire life span just like cell phones nothing major changes they just act like it is to sell
Major redesign. Lol. Audi is grille design company now, all they do is update grillles
over $90k is pretty wild, wonder how much they will depreciate...
Perhaps a future car review without sunglasses would be great. Seems to feel disconnected to enjoy your presentation ❤
There used to be a time when your viewers and commenters were knowledgeable car enthusiasts. Now, the reviews are still great but the commenters are mostly negative nellies who are trying to be critical without facts or substance
Spot on. Sometime back i heard a youtube reviewer say the then 3.6L subaru legacy was a "grandmother"s car"😮
lol I literally can’t tell any difference. Vw really struggling to be creative. Bmw 2023 x5 vs 2024 x5 was an home run update. Q8 is a lazy transmission, 10-15k over priced, made by VW, turd…
I see your point for sure. But the Q8 looks so good that it is one of those vehicles that is tough to update without completely ruining it. And I actually like the pre-facelift X5(especially the turn signals🤮)
Uhmmmm but X5 isn’t as good looking, and you have to control your adaptive cruise control distance and headlight modes through a screen which is crap. Also it doesn’t come with leather as standard which is appalling.
Where does VW come into play here? Yes, Audi, Porsche, etc are in the VW (Family) but they conduct their own operations. This is just common sense.. Audi is the oldest production brand from Germany that’s been making cars for itself for generations. You’re thinking in terms of Asian cars where Lexus is the “lux division” of its parent, Toyota, who made this brand only a few decades ago. Audi came before the VW family was even a thing, same with Porscej
@@drgvrp_dashcamDudes talking about the VW group like it doesn’t produce the worlds absolute best vehicles.. you have all the good brands united, VW, Lamborghini, Porsche, Audi, Bugatti, Bentley, etc. All renowned for their elevated nature.. he’s obviously a fanboy of some kind who can’t afford the likes of the VW family
@@christianbryant5617 yeah exactly, my family just bought a 24 cayenne and I’m not saying that cause I’m bias, we literally test drive the X5 and it was not as GOOD….
All the people who clip coupons and shop out of the clearance bin, leaving their silly comments need to just stick with their entry-level mainstream cars
Very bad grill design. Radiator shouldn’t be visible at all.
👎🏼
Audi is the stepchild for a reason and that reason is lots of plastic and a lame infotainment center. The tiny rear seat area is a joke for a flagship model. At least there is a spare tire. Come on Audi step your game up.
Kinda weird that their q5 and a4 look more premium than this q8 due to more physical buttons and less gloss black
My friend used to work audi dealership and used to tell how VW designed these things to breakdown exactly at 37 months..
Stepchild? And the “plastic” you’re referring to doesn’t feel like plastic. When you push on it, it feels like high quality soft and squidgy leather covered plastic. You’d have to touch it to understand. And Audi is not one to fill their products with a bunch of tacky gimmicks.. no one wants a wraparound screen. This is timeless, classy, and understated. The way luxury is supposed to be. You save all the cheap and “in your face” stuff for econoboxes
@@Jeez001plain bullshit. I’m an Audi guy. I had various models including RS ones. Never had any issue whatsoever. The key is by the book service at the official dealer because this is what you should do with ANY luxury car plus NO tuning at all -had bmc filter only on my RS5. For all the years all the models I had the only EXTRA things I had to do were 1 gear lever sensor and one parking sensor which defected. You can have any friend you like but I speak to you out of experience. At the moment we have both a q5 2021 and a q7 2021 models. They are excellent cars daily drivers, long trip and mild off road driven
@@Jeez001your friend is full of 💩
Oh no no no boo boo! This car is way overpriced, has no space for my things, and has a lame interior with loads of plastic! My chocolate yams are priceless and deserve better than this boo! Just buy me a Bimmer or Bentley!!!!
Are you a bot or something? Lame interior isn’t synonymous with Audi unless you’re without taste. You reek of new money, or straight up fake luxury. Real luxury is understated elegance, timelessness, and class, something you and your yams are without, boo boo.. go buy a Kia or something if you want fakeness
@@NickAtNightOKC definitely don’t work for Audi, but would like to.. ppl be jealous nowadays on completely different levels
“Buy me “?? go back to your Hyundai Accent
👎🏼
Will be in service dept.. more than you will drive it!! Very, very unreliable!! So lease and never buy unless you are wealthy!!
I own an Audi Q8 and it has been quite reliable. No issues and I’m over 40K miles. Not all German brands are unreliable. I’m planning to buy another Q8. It’s a very nice vehicle.
