2026 Audi RS Q8 Performance

The RS Q8 is Audi's high-performance flagship SUV, blending supercar pace with everyday practicality. It squares off against the BMW X6 M and Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe in the luxury performance SUV segment. The RS Q8 stays composed through corners, with sharp steering and a firm ride that rewards enthusiastic driving. Its cabin is spacious and tech-rich, with premium materials and room for five plus a sizable cargo area. The Performance trim adds a sport exhaust system, head-up display, and heated rear seats over the standard RS Q8. Its biturbo 4.0L I8 makes 631 horsepower and pairs with automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, returning 16 mpg combined. The optional RS sport exhaust gives the V8 a sharper, more aggressive note under hard throttle.
