Audi Q8. In royal blue or murdered out black.
Ikr Q8 the best
Why no q7 whyyyy
His every video should be titles as "How to prove Audi is better than Every other Car in this segment"
In the world indeed
Well it is better so what's your point?
You are absolutely right. I have felt the same , he is biased towards audi.
Audi the design team is so poor all model looks similiar .q8 is an extended model of outgoing q3 . How cheap.
@@paulbaboo9189 so does every BMW AND MERCEDES....and wait every RR and Bentley and Every fucking Land rover...wait every fucking care...so stfu
If it is better why wouldn't he declare it??
Congratulation Mat! Your explications about the cars are awesome, even for those who knows a little bit of english. Your presentations are interesting, funny and well done! If i'll ever can buy a car, i'll come straight to your firm to consult with you about the car i'm going to but. Good luck and once again congratulation! 🙏🙏🙏
I vote for the range rover sport ! I love it
I choose Audi Q8. More comfy and much more advanced systems than range. Good car. I’m in love with the mood lighting
@@AMG.63 range rover has mood lighting
I'll go with the land rover
@@tesla_models ofc you would choose the bmw. your username is tesla model s and btw there is no bmw in this vid
@@emadelleace607 yes in this video my pick would go with the rr
While this colour is horrendous, the Audi is the better vehicle.
Welcome To The Madness its pretty nice imo
Except for these fake exhaust pipes. These are just ridiculous on such an expensive vehicle...
Welcome To The Madness I love the colour. It suits it very well. And it’s not a boring, bland colour like white, grey, black.
Inglorious fair enough
Ben Mayall That’s a very good point
Matt, what's your take on the sport seats in the Q8 verses comfort seats, especially for long road trips? Thanks!
I just bought my wife a Q8 white with the blackout, an amazing vehicle.
I bought a white Q8 Sline today too
Got mine today
Mat, please keep in mind that the boot lip is good, for when you park on a steep road and have omething slippery or rolling in the boot, you might loose it when you open the tailgate
love your series, long time subscriber. One thing i noticed though, for all your group SUV reviews that includes Range Rovers, you guys keep saying for offroad, its the best. Can you do a video with some demanding off road tracks and prove it? I think its true a few years ago, but nowadays i think its worth reviewing that claim.
Range Rover Sport vs Q7/Q8 vs X5 vs Cayenne
Range Rover vs Bentayga vs Cullinan vs GLS63
:-)
There are videos and that proverbs range to be better
18 months ago I switched my 2014 Range Rover Sport for a Q8. The Audi spent 9 weeks of this time in the shop. In the end I lost patience with it and have just gone back to a 2022 Sport. Notwithstanding all the problems, the Q8 was a lovely car but going back to the RRSport was like coming home!
Did u have problems with the old RRS?
@@user-ip5fm3ck4p No, the RRS was faultless. At the time, I fancied a change (it was my third LR/RR), the second-hand value was through the roof, and Audi were offering tempting end-of-year deals.
@@MrPeterthepilot I want one so bad but of course the reliability scares me. I'm a woman so I don't want to be an easy mark. Any particular years you would recommend? Anything I should look out for in particular when it comes to test driving?
Hello there. Do u mind sharing what kinda problems you had with the Q8, please ?
@@duval3d There were a couple of functional issues. Firstly, the 3 litre VW group diesel has a shocker of a turbo lag which apparently cannot be improved or eradicated and secondly, the emergency brake is aggressive and cannot be turned off (unlike on other premium SUVs). Every time I reversed down my (admittedly steep) drive it arrested the car with a sickening jolt because the system thought it wouldn’t cope with the camber. On a couple of other occasions it nearly caused an accident. And then there were issues with the service centre who were unable to properly connect up the trailer braking unit, twice set up the voice activation system for a left hand drive vehicle, refused to acknowledge a ‘notchy’ change from first to second gear, and refused to respond to my phone enquiries checking on their progress with these and other issues. The biggest issue though was the build quality, especially the multiple annoying creaks and rattles and in particular, one which came from the roof. Audi had three attempts to locate this and eventually tracked it down to a structural fault in the way the roof had been fitted with the Sun-roof. At this point I gave up. I have a three tonne boat and can’t afford to be using a tow vehicle that has, or may have had, structural problems. When I realised that I preferred driving my wife’s 12 year old Freelander to my Q8, it was time to change. My experience was unfortunate. I ended up with a lemon and a dealer who didn’t care. This doesn’t mean that Audi are bad cars but you can appreciate why I went back to RR. We are now on our fifth as a family and have never had any problems with any of them. Hope this helps.
Really enjoyed the peddle to the metal test where you heard the clunk in the q8 respond with a delay. Gr8 presentation again
You're trending (#33) in South Africa. Well done keep up the good work
But we're in England M8 so stfu
no, the dacia duster is superior to both of these
Yes! You can drive a different Duster for everytime days of the week.
Great news! I have got more footage on the Dacia duster in the factory! (top gear reference)

Q 8 looks cheap to me compared to others
Borsumbi Terang I actually agree it has this “plastic” look to it
But still cayenne/Q8 any time any day
X6 m its the best man
Klajdi Cela STFU
Your reviews are the best I've seen :-)
I can confirm the gearbox they now use in the A6, A7 and Q8 is ridiculously hesitant, they use the same ZF 8 speed as BMW but it so slow to respond both setting off and dropping gears. It feels dangerous to pull out of busy junctions because it’s so slow to respond!
Audi Q8 all day. Don’t get me wrong the Range Rover is a nice car aswel
RC4LIFE ok we’ll take your word for it 👍
I would get an RC car anyday
Q8 all day and Rover sport all night

Lovely review.. I would love to keep both, a metallic Grey Range Rover Sport and an Ashwhite Audi Q8
You can¨t compare Range with other SUV-s...Range is class of it¨s own:)
You can't also compare a spaceship with a range
It literally just lost to the audi💀💀
I'll always choose the Range Rover Sport over any other SUV.
😂😂😂😂😂
@@ssingh8166 what?
Cos the Dealer has a nice warranty girl?
@@ahmadpk16 i laugh bcoz he wil choose range range over other SUV 😂😂😂😂
The thing with accelerating in the Q8 is not about the gearbox but about the engine having a single turbo, which produces a lot of turbo lag until it hits certain rpm, its actually a well known problem. In the 3.0 BiTDI audis this was solved and they are lovely to drive, but they cost hella more lul.
Exactly.. really poorly made. My wife drives it.. she loves it.. I hate it. Far prefer my GLS500..
Both nice vehicles, but the Range Rover will go where an Audi would not dare, thats the difference!
Yeah the range rover will go straight into the garage once the warranty runs out
They tend to both go to South Kensington, Chelsea and West Hampstead. Where else are you thinking they could go?
TESCO?
I think he means to a mechanic so it can get fixed.
Dave McKenna so would a Hummer lmao that’s not what we’re syaing
When you compare two or even three or more cars, please make a drag race . It would be nice
Drag race?! ..these are SUV’S. If you’d like drag racing car you are at the wrong segment
@@chrisauriazul2203 can still race .yes is an SUV super cars. GLE63s suv and coupe outruns them all.🔥
RR
One thing is for sure: the Q8 might break at some point, but RangeRover Sport will definitely break at some point!
OK great on other stupid person
Dylan Pillay how is he stupid
Dylan Pillay no, you are stupid.
All cars break
@@jeff1595 how is he stupid he is saying the obvious , the car spends more time in the workshop than on the road
This Q8 is 170 cm tall. The Ford Ranger is 181 cm, and is also longer than this. For Doug Demuro, the Ford Ranger is a small truck.
I hate that guy he is so annoying and his voice is so annoying i dont know how is he even compared to mat
Keywords, 'Truck' and 'SUV'.
Considering the fact that ford Ranger is a small truck by American standards, and Doug is 6'3
Mark Ifi He’s from the US their trucks are a lot bigger than ours lol
Where things like the f-150, Silverado and the GMC Denali exist, a ford ranger is a small truck. But here in the uk the ranger the typical size of pickup so that’s all we are used to
No doubt in this .... I'm sure gone with Range rover 💯
🤣🤣🤣 have you ever driven an Audi?
Can you make Audi Q8 vs Porsche Cayenne video too?
I love how you point out the flaws of the cars (as well as the good ones), not many car channels do that, thanks!
I quite like the larger Range Rover to be reviewed too especially with the long wheelbase.
Your explanation is Awesome ...

I never see the problem of a "load lip" in boots. I for one like having a slight lip there. It doesn't stop you sliding stuff in or out and the times I've opened a boot without a lip, and stuff rolls out and falls on the floor and you have to chase what's fallen out. i.e. Balls, tin cans et al. That doesn't happen with a lip there!!

Can you make a video porshe Cayenne vs Audi Q8 please, i'd like To know your opinion on these two cars
Today Whatcar channel uploaded a Q8 review as well. Apparently Audi PR team works hard these days to sell more Q8s.
Shouldn’t the q8 be compared to velar?
This 1s Nick you can compare it to any Range Rover you want but the result outcome will always be the same. 😉 Audi > RR
As a overall package agreed! Audi is good. But the velar does look really good!
This 1s Nick I agree with you bro, and the Q8 looks much bigger in person. It’s as long if not longer than Ranger Rovers either it be the sport or the Vogue, and it’s nearly as wide as the sport, it’s just shorter than them, closer to the height of the velar.
But the front of the q8 is a little bit polarising then that of the velar
This 1s Nick tbh what is dislike most about the Q8 is the front, I’m hoping it gets a redesign and a facelift next year, but I’m sure they made it that way for ergonomic and for maximum air flow. It’s also a bonus for us normal people as the depreciation will be more thus making it easier for us to buy.
Ranger over best off-road vehicles ❤️
Error no I believer that would be the Land Cruiser job. Unless we are referring to the Land Rover Defender then I might agree with you
Land rover defender*
Or older range rovers
Land cruiser🤔🤔
But the defender is gonna rip the horrible looking lc as well as these mighty range rovers

Range Rover is such a beautiful car. They're just a class of their own. They aren't the most practical ones but the feel which you get in a Range Rover is unique. Only true suv lovers will get my point
It's a rover afterall
@Winton Nghiem lol agree
Practical yes reliable no
Well. Suv lovers are weird anyways
On the IAA 2020 I had the opportunity to sit in both of this cars and planty of other Audis and range rovers. I simpy have to disagree with you, the general feeling of luxurity, when you sit in this cars is just better in the Audi, like he said it in the video.
One extra costs as much as I spend on a car! 😟
Please add more info about cars on your configurator e.g. limited slip differential,innovations and technology,recommended car tyres,lateral performance,braking performance etc.
Please make a video clip comparing g class amg 63 vs range rover sport svr carwow please
Audi and range rover are both stunning SUVs
I have to go with the Q8.
It looks really good, while it's also extremely innovative.
Big like for that, guys at Audi!
I love the Audi Q8! It's extremely reliable and l love the grill and stilling! The range Rover looks ugly and boring!😊
@@randomideas7799 are you on drugs?
@@jeff1595 why?
True report in every aspect. The wow factor on the Range Rover is the intangible that place it ahead in desire-ability. Can’t go wrong with either one. We got both...
People comparing 2 cars and suggesting which one to buy,
People who can afford them: we got both 😂
Matt: Slags off every feature of the car...
Also Matt: Other than that though, it's a great car to drive
Looool so true
I just can't decide if I like or hate the front of the Audi. It's just so odd from some angels. I also don't like Audi's new interior design, with the screens. The side profile is incredible though, and the rear is cool. Still, I'd take the RR.

@@imranpozder5917 Oh, nice!
My favorite is the Range Rover but the price is out of my range 😞
indeed it's called a range rover lol
I just want to know what good fuel economy would be for Matt. He said 34mpg is “just alright” that’s insane for a car that isn’t a hybrid
34mpg is not insane. Many cars here in the uk that do 50mpg, you’re looking at about 60mpg before it would be considered ‘insane’
And UK gallons are larger than US gallons.
Range🔥
And this my friends, is why SUV Coupes are better than SUVs. They're low enough to handle and not flip over but high enough to clear bumps, potholes, curbs. I don't even understand how the Q8 had more cargo space than the Range Rover 🤔
X6, GLE Coupe etc are all decent. But this Q8 and Urus have filled another segment. More between a car and a SUV
you don't need SUV to clear bumps, potholes, curbs. Every car can do it
I didn't mention anything about "needing" I said the Coupe SUV style is better than the traditional SUV because of those factors I mentioned.
Honestly this models range rovers boot space is way too small especially if you get the optional seats in the back, my mk7 fiesta was fitting a fair amount more in the boot than my parents range rover sport when I helped them move house
I've seen a q8 in real life, and i can tell, THIS THING IS HUUUUGE!
Damn mat did you hit the gym😂💪
Range Rover sport ♥️♥️ I have 2020 V8 super charge .. Powerful, nice to drive and you feel so special when you drive it on the road 🤪♥️

There seems to be a never ending supply of RUclipsrs that know nothing about Land Rover reliability, but are happy to make smart Alec comments about it at any time
@@onnipony how many have you owned?
I'm at my second without many problems ,just usual maintenance.
@@stevenjr6582 None because of their bad reliability. You don't need to own every car to know that, just doing a modicum of research online tells you that. Just like I don't need to have been to space to accept the earth is flat. Land rovers are cool cars though.
Wow, who's there to get one for me. I love it, range rover
I would like to take Q8, it's just amazing when the tactile elements shine stronger when the finger approaches them (without touching)
Wireless phone charging in the clipboard
Two USB ports and one 24V on the back sits
And it looks just so much better. Amazing car
Recently drove the new A6. That car had the same issue with the gearbox. Sometimes you wait literally 2 seconds until something is happening. Weird. Also I touched the massive gearbox lever with my knee during driving.
Compare them with the model X p100d please would be nice to see. :)
Can’t be that new if they have 18 plates in 2019?
Audi Q7 vs Bmw X7 please!!
(Many ppl will argue about the different X5 being the real competitor, but both the Q7 and X7 being 7 seaters and costing the same amount by adding options to the Q7 makes them good competitors.)
True about the wind noise in the RRS, it drives me insane that this vehicle would have so much wind noise on the highway. No other car I've owned in 30 years has been this loud.
If it is a suv, higher is better. As you said range is unique and it will be unique... I dont even compare RangeRover to other cars. I hope one day I can afford it :) it is the dream car for me.
-And I should say that carwow is the only Channel I enjoyed watching on RUclips. Keep going Men thank you :)
I will take Range rover Sport anyday..............Audi just doesn't look like an SUV, it's too compact and crossover type
I assume you're joking. Brexit is going to massively change range rover/land rover which is going to invalidate their warranty. Really need to consider that.
Mike R lmao what a load of shit 😂😂😂 got next weeks lottery numbers too?
You know that size of Q8 is almost the same as Q7.... which means it is almost one of the biggest SUVs in european market..... not compact at all
Mike R Nothing you said is at all relevant you fucking spastic
@@jlue1993 No unfortunately not. But I do have it on good authority that it's going to be invalidated since BMW bought Range Rover (European).

I always thought it was the other way round to me the Range Rover Line seems to be an impractical status symbol but each to there own.
I like you metaphor, so true.
damn the quality of this video. 1440p
I've test driven both. The RR is in a class all alone (fit and finish) but be prepared to spend an awful lot of time at the service desk and driving a loaner. The infotainment system is severely lacking and reliability of the 2020's (electrical and transmissions) are of major concern. The Audi looks and drives great and is on the leading edge of technology but there should have been more interior trim options vice the all piano black. The fake exhaust is also concerning for such a nicely appointed vehicle. The SQ8 vs the Porsche Cayenne Coupe and BMW X6M is a much better comparison IMHO.

That Q8 is easily one of the best looking SUVs there been in a while.

I don't see any pure 4cyl engine options for the range rover on their config site? You can get a 2.0L 4 cyl hybrid however that's 404bhp and starts at ~£72k?
Have a decade old RR SC and Q7 (wifes) with the 3.0 TDI. Q7 is nice, better economy and with 7 seats good for extra people... but I love my Rangie even with its thirst and weight.
