The 2024 Audi Q8 E-Tron 55 is an electric SUV with a theoretical range of 454km, powered by a 114kWh battery pack. The vehicle boasts 25.6kWh per 100 kilometers and a range of 25-30kWh/100km. Charging times vary depending on the availability of chargers at home or in your area. The standard wall box arrangement at home will get the Q8 from zero to 100% in 14.5 hours, while a 50kW fast charger will get it from zero to 80% in one hour and 16 minutes.

The Q8 E-Tron is a fast SUV with two electric motors for each axle: 300kW and 664Nm. Its adjustable air suspension manages to hide the weight and maintains a comfortable ride even on rough roads. The Q8 E-Tron also offers a quicker steering ratio and sharper response, making it feel lighter than it claims to be on paper. The Q8 E-Tron is a relaxed and premium cruiser, with a sharp turn of speed when needed.

Audi has struck a balance between traditional braking systems and regenerative retardation, making it an intuitive experience to drive. However, the Q8 E-Tron is not intended for those looking for a luxury SUV with multiple cars or those who don’t venture too far afield. The entry-grade Q8 E-Tron is available for order, with a four to six-week wait. The Launch Edition is a limited run and is available as an SUV only.
