At Audi Atlanta, our portfolio is bursting with compelling and luxurious options, but few can match the sheer gravitas of models like the new Audi Q8 and Audi Q8 e-tron®. As the flagship of the Audi luxury SUV and luxury EV SUV lineups respectively, these two models are easily some of the most attractive new luxury vehicles on the market. And if you're interested in buying or leasing one, we'd love to show you the unique strengths of both the new Audi Q8 and Audi Q8 e-tron® firsthand.
Now, what's the main difference between the Audi Q8 and Audi Q8 e-tron®, you might wonder? Well, by and large, the main differentiator between these two is what makes them go.
For the new Audi Q8, that's a 48-volt mild hybrid assisted turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine which produces up to 335 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque.
As for the new Audi Q8 e-tron®, it trades a conventional combustion engine for a full electric powertrain, with two electric motors situated at each axle powered by a 106 kWh battery pack, producing up to 402 horsepower on demand.
In general this means that the new Audi Q8 e-tron® is the more athletic of these two models, especially given the fact that electric vehicles produce more on demand torque than conventional gasoline powered models, making for a more dynamic feel when it comes to off-the-line acceleration.
However, it's also worth considering which model offers more range on a full tank of gas or a full charge. Now, the new Audi Q8 e-tron® is competitive in its segment, offering up to 285 miles of usable range on a full charge.
But with a full tank of gas in the new Audi Q8, you can travel up to 630 miles, making it the better fit for Atlanta, GA drivers who frequently travel for business or take family road trips out of state.
Of course, that's not to say that the Audi Q8 e-tron® is unsuitable for distance driving. In fact, with the broader availability of DC Fast Charge stations and the fact that the Audi Q8 e-tron® can charge the majority of its battery capacity in just 31 minutes time, you'll never be left waiting around by this impressive new luxury EV.
However, whether you opt for the new Audi Q8 or Audi Q8 e-tron, you can still expect the Audi Brand's legendary standard of luxury and technological sophistication.
