Best of all, that energy can be put toward even greater use. When your Q8 e-tron is properly equipped, you can tow up to 1,814 kilograms (4,000 pounds) of extra equipment for your weekend getaway.
The proper use of battery power is the difference maker with electric cars. The lithium-ion battery within the Q8 e-tron is made for the long haul, so you can keep up with whatever the week has in store and spend more time driving between charges. You’ll enjoy an estimated 459-kilometre (285-mile) range, allowing for plenty of travel on a single charge.*
When it’s time to recharge the battery, you can do so quickly before hitting the road again. With a DC fast charger, you can charge from 10% to 80% power in just 31 minutes. With such quick charging, you’ll get to spend more time out on the road.
When you’re out and about, anything can happen. That’s why the Audi Q8 e-tron is equipped with a variety of systems to give you an added advantage when situations become unpredictable. Safety features can be the prime difference maker in your future travels.
Using sensors and on-board computing, the Q8 e-tron keeps an eye out for you on all sides. This gives you the peace of mind to keep moving forward, knowing your vehicle is also your intelligent copilot. Having these features on your side will make you and your passengers more confident:
- Adaptive cruise assist with lane guidance
- Audi pre-sense® front
- Audi side assist (blind spot)
- Lane departure warning
Along with the standard safety systems, there are more driver-assistive technologies available that make the Q8 e-tron even smarter. The available intelligent park assist makes fitting into parallel and perpendicular spaces a breeze. It automatically maneuvers the vehicle into place so you can easily claim that perfect spot.
When you’re on the highway, awareness is key. The available top view camera system gives you a virtual 360-degree view of the exterior. You can toggle between these cameras from the driver’s seat, giving you an advantage in heavy traffic.
State-of-the-art advancement can be used for more than added functionality—it should be fun, too. The cutting-edge systems in the Q8 e-tron are all within arm’s reach and ready to revolutionize the way you drive. When paired with luxurious elements for your comfort and enjoyment, it’s a winning combination.
Infotainment and modern innovation make the Q8 e-tron a futuristic oasis. The standard Audi virtual cockpit plus system is your key to a revolutionary display. The customizable digital instrument cluster brings your must-know info in a crisp 12.3-inch HD display. You’ll even stay connected when you’re away from your car—the myAudi app lets you program the ideal temperature with remote climate control before you return to the cabin.
The driver’s seat itself is a huge leap forward in comfort. It has been built from the ground up to cater to your senses and help you get relaxed for the drive ahead. This standard seat goes a long way toward making your adventures more enjoyable by offering:
- Heating, with available ventilation
- 8-way power adjustment
- 4-way power lumbar support
- Position memory function
Luxury design and incredible technology go hand-in-hand. This is especially true with the available features that make the Q8 e-tron a jaw-dropping machine. The available Bang & Olufsen® sound system, for example, offers studio-quality 3D sound with strategically placed speakers. Your playlist will sound better than ever.
Keeping important info on hand is essential to safe driving. The available head-up display projects the essentials directly onto the windshield for easy and safe reading. You can check speed limits, navigation instructions, and more with this additional convenient display.
If you’re heading downtown, you’ll want a vehicle that can fit into the perfect on-street parking spot. In a contest where every millimere counts, the Q8 e-tron can fit into more of those tight spaces than the BMW iX. With this nimble design and more space for your passengers to stretch out and get comfortable, the Q8 e-tron is a marvel in design.

Having more choices lets you find a vehicle as unique as you are. The Q8 e-tron offers more trim levels, each with its own set of features, and more paint finishes than the Model Y for greater overall variety. The inclusion of standard quattro® all-wheel drive is a nice bonus, too.
