To me, the front looks better with the gray grille surround instead of the gloss black treatment. Overall, I find the Q8 rather aesthetically pleasing.
Just wait for the RSQ8, its gonna look sick with a new factory wide-bodykit. Just like the new RS6 and RS7, the RSQ8 is also going to have 4.5 cm wider stance on each side; so in total 9 cm wider than a regular one.(9 cm is 3.54 inches based on google converter). What I meant to say by all of this, if Q8 looks so good, its damn hard to imagine the RSQ8 beastliness.
@@Omgiamsotriggered I'm sure you're right about that.
You know that this version of the Q8 is £10-20k more with gloss black and black outlines. The grey colour sorrounding is the cheapest, dont know about you but grey looks really normal whereas this stands out and looks way more beautiful.
Delta Media - Brawl Stars & More! Yeah the black makes it look way better.
It is only 1-2k€ more though. Not 10-20 haha.
Except if you‘re counting the s line packages towards it. They‘re no more than 5k (€) together though.
Our U.S. version has a body color grille surround. Looks much better-no Camaro look.
He said it the URUS is the top of the line Q8 you can get 😂
It's true.
he’s right
Madlads
Its all VW
Wow, it's like we watched the same video
Pleeease collab with Matt Watson from carwow that would be amazing!!
Our brief collab with him in our X3M Competition video was fun. We'd love to do something with him again
It would be difficult since he's in the UK and they're in Canada.
That was definatly a surprise 🤣 the difference in accents is hilarious 😂
Ammar Yasser Both countries are english speaking so i guess it would be alright...
And Doug and Chrisfix
I love how Straightpipes continues to call out car companies on the fake exhausts. Such a stupid and ugly fad that I hope goes away asap.
Wish they would do that for tablet screens too
Do you know why companies are doing the fake exhausts now? Is it some legislation in Europe or what? As a designer, I would easily put the "fake" exhausts with deeper into the bumper so it actually looks more legit.
pretty sure carwow started it
@@nicholaswong7368 Absolutely
They aren’t going away, new ICE cars are going away though. I’d prefer that ICE cars get exhaust tips, EVs don’t, and nobody gets fake exhaust tips.
When they meet new people:
"HI! I'm Yuri! *I'm Jakub* And we're pleased to meet you!"
@@BIGGELATO 😂😂 YES. I apologize that sounds very unpleasant lol
@@BIGGELATO Shouldn't HAVE.
The Man lmao ur mad corny
This should be meme format for this channel, just like Doug's the type of guy jokes.
Audi is doing an amazing job on styling on the latest models
I love that you guys are getting more Audi reviews 👍🏾💪🏾
I'm here for all the Audi reviews. you guys are killing it!
The Q8 looks so nice
An SQ8 would be awesome!
In Germany you can buy the sq8, it's a diesel v8
You'll get a RS4/RS5 engined SQ8, an in europe you can get the Diesel V8
@@henjoh69 the diesel is much better
The SQ8 has been launched a few months ago. Go to three RUclips channel Autogefühl to watch the review
I pronounced this as "The Squait"
please do bentley continental GT and keep the good work guys, i really enjoy this
They should also do the Porsche 992
Thank you for reviewing more Audis I was constantly commenting it and you guys came through thank you so much
My uncle has one with the Diesel and will get the SQ8 later this year (most probably) so I'm really excited about that.
The engine is even more separated from the interior than in the A5, it's amazingly comfortable in it.
Omg!! We just bought this EXACT SUV configuration❤️ & everything you said is correct, it is the most relaxing SUV we’ve ever had. I wanted a Urus but that’ll be a few more years, but this look “similar” & we went for it. Love the channel & I’ll def be tagging you in a pic now👍🏼
14:37 - Yes, Yuri, I have that fear literally everytime I have to move my sun visor to block the sun on the left side of my car when my windows are down... Instead, I just started putting the garage opener in my center console whenever I have to move the sun visor to the side. I agree with you 100%! That is a serious fear of mine! 😬
Love your guys' videos! You do a great job and keep it fun and entertaining! Keep it up!
I've had this vehicle in the same color, equipped very similarly for about 9 months. No problems, love it
Didn't realise how massive that grille was at the front, wow
Sup guys, I actually really like how this looks. The integration of the Audi tech works well. Best in class I think from your review. Only downside being the blank exhaust. We love Audi SUV in New Zealand so this might do well. Could I suggest you guys talk about moon/sunroofs in wagons and suvs, some people really want this? Cheers
Love all reviews, keep up the great work!
Reviews are getting better and better! Great!
You guys legitimately use the BEST music of any youtubers. More people should pay for quality music on their videos!!
Jakob: "and i would like to talk about the exhaust!"
Yuri: "what exhaust?"
Jakob: "exactly..."
i love it - keep it goin guys!!!
I love the little details Yuri brings up
Best car review channel on RUclips!!! Love from Calgary!
I love that Audi!! And yes, Yuri, I have had that fear of the clicker flying out the window!
I love the styling of the Q8!
Thanks for the reviews guys!!! And thank you so much for calling out Audi and other companies on their fake exhausts!!!! It can't be that hard to just route two or four pipes out the back!!!! And if they don't want to route pipes out the back don't put anything in their place to look like exhaust pipes. Thank you.
I've had the Q7 for a few months and I absolutely love it.
Not an audi person at all but I think this thing is beautiful. This new generation of audi cars are all real nice
Audi: Does something cool with lighting, literally ever (LED headlights, animations, virtual cockpit)
Everyone else: Write that down, write that down!
Great review guys! 💯🙌
Loved the ambient lighting segment. Please do more with other cars that have ambient lighting
12:02
Yuri: Equal to them but on a chiller level
Jakub: doubt
Yuri was spot on with the new Camaro front end comparison.
You guys killed it everytime !!!
Someone around the corner from my work has this car and it looks amazing in person!
Just saw one today it looks awesome 👍🔥
"like a pug" thanks cant be unseen
I thought you guys would never review this car! I love Audi!
I love when I see friendships between RUclips channels!
Definitely, want to see the new Lincoln Aviator!
Every journalist ever: hates piano gloss black
Audi: Let’s make it ALL piano gloss
It's to incentivize cleaning your car.
Love your channel fellas ...this car looks great I love it
This review was great. Made me look at the Q8 differently
I've had my Q8 for about 3 months now - silver Prestige with everything except the Year One pack and the $6k stereo (also on 21" wheels). I was never on board with the whole "coupe" SUV, but the Audi doesn't feel like a compromise. It's a great car to commute in - though sometimes the driver assist features overreact. I'll throw in one complaint: Most of the infotainment is locked out when you're on the move - which is annoying when you have a passenger that is perfectly capable of handling it.
I drove a '16 GLE 400 before - which honestly felt just as quick, but the Mercedes didn't ride anywhere near as well as the Audi does (admittedly, being effectively an ML by a different name, it's a dinosaur in comparison). I'm sure I'll be lusting after an SQ8/RS in the future, but by-and-large, the Q8 is an easy car to get along with.
Thinking of trading in my 16’ X5 in on a new Q8. Would you recommend it over a new X5 or GLE?
Have already built and priced my Q8, almost fully loaded with the Black optics, upgraded rims like in the video, and everything else except the bang and Olufsen. Just wanted input from someone who has owned it, such as yourself.
Thanks
@@mattX5 I'd say the Audi is a better highway companion than a GLE. My friend has the new 350 with air suspension and acoustic comfort pack and I still think the Q8 is a more serene drive. The 450 is obviously the direct competitor and is more refined than the 350, but I imagine I'd still prefer the Audi. Honestly, it makes most "luxury" cars feel downright brittle and loud in comparison.
I haven't driven one with the 22" wheels but I imagine it's still at the top of the pack. The GLE is a very nice car but I don't think I'd go for one if I were in the market.
I've had the car for just over a year now and still no major complaints (in fact, the driver assist complaint has been mostly resolved under warranty).
Kevin Ok, thanks a lot for your input. Ironically enough, my fiancé and I just decided last night that we’re going to keep our X5 an extra 1 1/2 years and buy a second weekend car, likely a CPO 2018 Audi S5 or something of that nature. Will definitely look at the Q8 in a year and a half.
Thanks again
@@mattX5 As for the X5, the local BMW dealer annoyed me so I didn't spend too much time on it. The one thing I'll note is the GLE/Q8 have massive back seats compared the the BMW.
I don't think you'll be disappointed with whichever you end up with.
@@mattX5 Nice! It may have a refresh by that point anyways. Good luck!
I love the Q8 design! But with all options it get to almost $100k for 6 cylinder lol 🤔 maybe for the RSQ8 V8 4.0T that is coming
Gret review guys, I really like it, it's compelling! I like Smooth, Comfy & relaxing!
Oh yeah, I'm digging the intro!
Though I am getting busy in university, I am still subscribed to your channel and watching it when I have time
Tony Ren same
Tony Ren to me and few others, this is studying hahaha
samee😆
The cheaper Lamborghini Urus
Damn you are so clever dude
The more mature Urus brother.
Ali Salahat Yes but actually no
u gotta be kiddin, next to urus thing this looks like vw passat
Nope, the Urus is just an expensive Q8.
one of the best looking and shaped cars
Riding on a Q7 (4M) and loving it :) keep up the great work fellas! Удачи! 😊
I do the visor test with my friend and pretend were you guys ☺️
❤️
6:34 classic apple charging cable right there lmao
good review - nice to have a no drama vehicle - kind of like a sanctuary from the frenzy of life.
Appreciate the improved Outro! 👌
Best looking SUV ever
dem lights doe
looks like the front got inked by a blooper lol
Great review guys, loved it!
Yuri's right! I have totally had the fear of the garage clip flying out of the window LOL
damn son 12:07 i think audi has the best ambient lighting ever, very well designed and placed. not like bentley's , its like u bought led strips and stick it urself . while mercedes look like a nasty cheap club lol
kucing gemuk looks nice, but not as nice as from Mercedes. Need to see it in real light. So far my e class coupe is the standard for me
No bro, Mercedes has the best ambient lighting and well as interior....
"it looks like a pug"
And now I can't unsee it.
Great review, as always. I wonder why you don't test the park assist packages and the differences between the big brands.
The looks on these have grown on me alottttt
My sister lost one of our garage door openers like that once.
I work at Audi, and I sat in a Q8 during your whole review
Can’t wait to see you guys review the RSQ8
Not a fan of too much piano black, but I'm still always impressed with the Audi's interior layout styling, and that Q8 just looks so nice.
Wow I've never seen a urus without a body kit before!
291st comment! And though I love Tesla, they need to improve their looks.
If it had a better engine than I would be in love. Absolutely stunning rig
I freaking love this car. At night, it’s a beauty to watch driving away. ❤️❤️❤️
I love Potatoes. Potatoes are great
Thanks
I love bobs and vegene. Bob's and vegene are great
@Casimir Corcoran so great
Mention warranties in reviews. Today's tech will cost $$$$ to fix.
always lease, they usually have everything covered in a package
I work making those fancy headunits. I strongly agree. The companies that get outsourced to make the hardware are trash. They cheap out on everything, and don't understand basic practices. Most of the PCs that power them, aren't even given cooling fans, because "we need to keep noise and power usage down". Keep in mind a fan uses 1 watt of power. So these boxes are basically designed to fail in a couple of years. The run at like 90+ degrees. Which anyone who plays with PCs can tell you, is way too damn hot for a computer.
Audi Headunits are pretty good. mainly Nvidia guts and works pretty well! But warranty for all the other stuff :)
Songyi Fan ; In the US people don’t like to lease. In Europe however leasing is the best solution not only because everything is covered in a package but also because this way their very restrictive government can’t harass them financially or take away their cars (it should sound like nonsense to Americans but here if you’re a millionaire you better lease your cars instead of buying them if you don’t want the gov on your back) plus you this way when you’re bored you can easily get rid of it too by closing the files and then lease new car (that’s how people can change their supercars so frequently and quickly).
In the US, Audi’s come with a 4 year 50,000 bumper to bumper warranty
Great video guys. I saw this car at the auto show and I liked it a lot. If I have this kind of money looking for SUV this will be my choice
Perhaps Homelink is not common in the land of the maple leaf, but having said that I love the addition of Homelink garage door opening on the mirror, or dedicated buttons in the cabin. I would think the entertainment soft touch button is actually a step back. Homelink Implementation in Subaru, Porsche, and VW works quite well.
I want to like the Q8, but I think it’s under powered for the price. You can get a V8 X5/X6 for what they’re charging for this Q8.
What about the taxes after???? Because in my country u pay 1300 euros for a fcking v8 engine per year so screw your v8 and not even talking about the fuel consumption.
Fully agree with you, Q8 is a good modern all-rounder, but I don’t understand where such a high price came from.
@@AudiRS5B9 here in Russia taxes are not that mad and fuel costs much lower. But price of an actual car is still unreasonable high.
@@thebest8377 in Romania they are insane. Also the fuel.
Vali _Ciocan, since you want to get technical. The inline 6 X5 is still faster and much cheaper than this Q8. The X5 xdrive 40i gets to 60 in 5.3 seconds vs the Q8 5.7 seconds. Fuel economy on the X5 is better too, 20 city and 26 hwy, vs the Q8’s 17 city and 22 hwy. Sorry man, the Q8 is just not a good buy.
Please review the 2019 Audi Q5
5k! GREAT VIDEO!!!
Saw this in gray and it looked very nice!
"You know what's really exciting about Audi? How they use the same two basic engines in 95% of their cars" said no one ever.
A7 - cutting
Q8 - bulking
Q8 + M8 + F8..
Dream garage combo
Q8 is Killer ❤️❤️❤️ i love that car I would choose it over pretty much every other one
The front of the Q8 looks like a Chevy Silverado Trail Boss
Edit: I just got to the part where he said it looked like the SS Camaro and I agree
Yup it's true
Audi's future is e-tron so this is why most of their designs are omitting the exhaust in the bumper.
Basically they're preparing their customers for a future Audi without an ICE
Ah! Good callout.
Baby steps...
Its not the future. Nobody can tell now that electric vehicles will be the future
JamboWillzyx You are objectively wrong. They could tell back in 1884. It’s battery tech that needed to catch up, and it has.
@@benramin7797 exactly!
I just felt something that told me to stop playing Minecraft and go on youtube and than..
*BOOMM!*
*The video I’ve been waiting for*
*Thanks God*
Loving the subtle sneak peeks of the Urus in different shots. Looking foward to the review.
Lol we reviewed it already
TheStraightPipes whoops... I’m blind!
Not Going To Lie This Is The Most Clean and slick looking audi I have ever seen
I can’t get over those awefull FAKE EXHAUSTS in such an expensive car! It’s unforgivable!
The bottom line for Audi is the wealthy customer who doesn't know anything about cars. They're the type of customer to get annoyed by exhaust soot building up on chrome tips
Squid McFishfish Sorry but you sound completely dumb saying Audi is for people who don’t care about cars. I’m looking at an Audi Q8 and I really care about cars. Most people who buy sporty, luxurious cars like Audi’s care about their cars or they wouldn’t be looking to spend $80,000+ on a vehicle.
You have really good intro music in your videos, wonder where you get those. Very good editing in general
You guys are awesome.
completely disagree with you guys, this is probably the best looking SUV on the market right now
I agree, this thing is superb!
*When describing the looks of a car*
Jakob: Says something intelligible that makes you think
Yuri: It looks like a pug
8:45 holy shit that door is massive 😂 Great review as usual
Yuri: explaining how he doesn't mind the exhaust
Jakub: !YO FIGURE IT OUT!
this front end works on big cars like q8 and chevy trucks but on the 2019 camaro its a no no for me...
My favorite thing about the Q8 is that you can tow a red jet ski, which I have, and the red jet ski also looks great behind a red Raptor, which I also have, and here's some footage of me having fun with said Raptor and said Jet Ski... That's great. So as for interior materials... lmao you guys are the best!
I found this new top gear by chance and I'm loving it ♥
Awesome
I like these guys - good straight up reviews. The Q8 is niiice would like it in a different color. Cadillac I hope you’re watching and make the next Escalade a worthy competitor 🙏🏻
