1. 2024 Audi Q8 55 TFSI Quattro (3.0T All-Wheel Drive)
- Base Price: $72,800
- MPG Combined: 20
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 3.0-liter V6

The Q8 comes in just one flavor, but it's a good one thanks to silky turbo-V6 power and a ride that's even silkier.
2. 2024 Audi SQ8 (4.0T AWD)
- Base Price: $95,500
- MPG Combined: 17
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 4.0-liter V8

- Torque: 568 lb-ft
- 0-60: 4.3 sec
- Weight: 5,280 lbs

If owning an SQ8 makes sense in your life, we envy you that. Sure, it's big and heavy, but it's so fast and so smooth. Subtle, too. Chef's kiss.
3. 2024 Audi RS Q8 (4.0T AWD)
- Base Price: $125,800
- MPG Combined: 15
- Drive Type: All-wheel drive
- Engine: 4.0-liter V8

The RS Q8 isn't a revolutionary leap beyond the SQ8, but there's no doubt that it's a damn cool SUV. Is it worth an extra $30k? On paper, no; in your heart, quite possibly.
