SQ8

SQ8 4.0 TDI quattro

A performance-focused version called the Audi SQ8 was launched in June 2019 with chassis revisions, styling, and technology upgrades. It features a new 4.0-litre Biturbo V8 mild-hybrid diesel engine with 429bhp and Шаблон:Convert of torque. Performance is sent through the 8-speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox to its Quattro all-wheel drive system. Euro-spec models have a claimed acceleration of 0–Шаблон:Convert in 4.8 seconds (0–Шаблон:Convert in 4.6 seconds) with an electronically limited top speed of Шаблон:Convert.

The new turbochargers are situated within the “V” of the engine block, which Audi claims creates better engine response. To further reduce the effects of turbo lag, the engine features sequential turbocharging, with only a small charger active at low engine speeds and a larger charger engaging above 2,200rpm. An electric-powered compressor assists the turbocharger when starting and accelerating from lower speeds, compensating for the turbo's lack of boost at low revs by adding extra pressure to the intake to smooth out power delivery.

The compressor is also fed by the same 48V lithium-ion battery pack which supports the SQ8's mild-hybrid system. Comprising a belt-driven alternator starter and regenerative brake system, it can power the SQ8 at speeds of up to Шаблон:Convert and recover up to 8kW of energy under deceleration.

The SQ8 comes with adaptive air suspension and Drive Select dynamic handling system as standards. The advanced suspension package is available as an optional extra, adding four-wheel steering, sport differential, and electromechanical active anti-roll bars.

Styling differences include 21-inch alloy wheels, a revised, more aggressive body kit, new rear diffuser with oval exhaust tips as standard. Larger 22-inch alloys, Matrix LED headlights, red brake calipers, and carbon-ceramic brakes are available as optional extras.

The interior features leather and Alcantara-trimmed sports seats, stainless steel pedals, a digital instrument cluster, and center-mounted screens that control infotainment, heating, and air conditioning systems. Voice control, Wi-Fi hotspot Amazon Alexa, Android Auto, and Apple CarPlay support are standard.

Safety technology includes adaptive cruise control, traffic jam assist, active lane assist, and a 360-degree camera. It includes a maneuvering assist system which Audi claims to help soften low-speed parking collisions by applying small steering and braking corrections along with a curb warning system which helps prevent damage to the alloys. Deliveries in the UK started in September 2019.

SQ8 4.0 TFSI quattro

The SQ8 4.0 TFSI quattro is a version of SQ8 with a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 petrol engine rated Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert of torque. It accelerates from 0-Шаблон:Convert within 4.1 seconds and on to a maximum speed of Шаблон:Convert.

European model (507PS) went on sale in autumn 2020. It went on sale in late spring 2020 in the United States as the sole SQ8 model.

RS Q8

The RS Q8 is a performance version of the Q8 and was unveiled at the 2019 LA Auto Show in November. The engine is shared with the RS 6 C8 and RS 7 4K8, a 4.0 TFSI engine rated Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert of torque. Like the SQ8, performance is sent through the 8-speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox (ZF 8HP90) to its Quattro all-wheel drive system. Audi claims Шаблон:Convert in 3.8 seconds. The top speed is electronically limited to Шаблон:Convert (Шаблон:Convert with dynamic package). A live-link suspension is featured at the front and the rear along with adaptive air suspension standard with controlled damping. The interior features Audi's MMI dual-touchscreen setup with RS-specific displays, as well as RS-embossed sport seats in black pearl Nappa leather and Alcantara and an RS leather-covered flat-bottom steering wheel. Styling differences include an RS-specific grille, larger air intakes, bespoke trim strips, and an available sport exhaust system with black tailpipe trim. The standard wheels on the RS Q8 are 22-inch, 10-spoke aluminum wrapped in 295/40-series tires, while 23-inch wheels are optional. Deliveries in the UK will start in early 2020.

For the 2021 model year, all Q8s will come with blind-spot monitoring, and the base Premium trim's Convenience package will include a heated steering wheel and a 360-degree parking camera.

2024 facelift

Шаблон:Multiple image The facelifted Q8 was unveiled on 5 September 2023 for the 2024 model year. Subtle in nature, the exterior changes included larger air inlets in the front bumper, and a new exhaust setup which is fitted across the lineup. The Singleframe grille now has octagonal elements and flows smoothly into the headlamps. The SQ8 features a redesigned front spoiler and rear diffuser, while the grille, side view mirrors, and air intakes feature aluminium for an aesthetic appeal. The design of the Matrix LED headlights has been changed, and the Q8 will be available with the high-tech laser lights that increase the range of the high beams. The daytime running lights on range-topping variants be swapped four different lighting signatures via the infotainment screen, and the rear light bar has a more simple design.

The facelift adds three new metallic paints (Chili Red, Ascari Blue, Sakhir Gold) as well as five alloy wheel designs ranging from 21 to 23 inches. The new Q8 adds an available selection of nine inlays and new upholstery choices.

The SQ8 features a larger 4.0-liter V8 petrol engine with an output of Шаблон:Cvt and Шаблон:Cvt, giving it a 0 to 60 output in 4.1 seconds and an electronically limited Шаблон:Cvt. The unit can switch off four of its cylinders almost instantly to reduce fuel consumption when extra power is unnecessary. The SQ8 features 21-inch wheels with 285/45 tires, however 22- and 23-inch options are available, including a new 23-inch variant with 285/35 rubber. As with the regular Q8, it features Quattro all-wheel drive and an 8-speed Tiptronic transmission, allowing it to change gears quicker.
