Audi Q8
The sporty RS Q8 sitting at the top of the Q8 lineup now includes a Performance package that increases output from 591 horsepower to 631 horsepower, something no other conventionally powered Audi has ever achieved. It also comes standard with a specifically tuned adaptive air suspension enabling a ride height adjustment up to 90 mm. Cosmetic revisions include a new front fascia with striking air intakes and a 3D-style honeycomb structure. Less powerful Q8 and SQ8 models continue to be available.
