The Audi RS Q8 is the fastest SUV around the Nurburgring, edging out the mechanically similar Lamborghini Urus and Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S with a time of 7m 42.25s. Making this happen is a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 that makes 608PS and 800 Nm between 2,200 - 4,500 rpm. The RS Q8 can get from 0 to 100 kmph in 3.8s and go onto a 250 kmph top-speed. With the optional Dynamic Package Plus specified, this increases to 305 kmph. The engine is paired with an eight-speed torque converter automatic, it also features a 48V mild-hybrid system for improved efficiency. The RS Q8 also features cylinder-deactivation tech for this purpose.
Other enhancements available on the RS Q8 as standard is all-wheel steering, Audi's Virtual cockpit, quattro AWD with a self locking differential, adaptive air suspension with eight drive modes( including off-road and the customizable RS-specific RS1 and RS2 modes), an air-purifying system and 23-inch alloy wheels.
