The model
Read full Audi RSQ8 review
With 592bhp (or 632bhp for the Performance version), the Audi RS Q8 sports SUV is very fast and – despite its size and weight – corners with composure. It's not quite as fun to drive as a Porsche Cayenne Turbo Coupé but it rides well most of the time and is better for practicality than rivals.
The trim
This top-spec trim level comes with black 23in wheels and adds a panoramic glass roof, night-vision camera and rear USB ports.
The engine
The standard 4.0-litre, twin-turbocharged V8 petrol engine produces 592bhp and whisking this big SUV from 0-62mph in 3.8 seconds before reaching a top speed of 155mph. Four-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic gearbox are standard.
