Pursuing a comprehensive balance product, audi Q8 is not just the carrier of the Q7's sports attributes

Audi's car series has a wide coverage, which is also a significant performance under the BBA competition, covering different fields and different positioning to maintain market share. Audi's model codes range from A to Q, from 1 to 8, and even from RS to e-tron.
Audi has independent self-development capabilities, but the hardware attributes are not too different, but it can deduce different personalities on the same hardware. This is also the luxury positioning label of Audi as the entire Volkswagen Group, so the emergence of the Audi Q8 interprets its understanding of luxury.
The number "8" has a flagship mission for Audi, perhaps the Q8 appeared to fill the blank space above the Q7, or it is just another car series in a simple sense. But its flagship positioning will not change hands so far, and this model also carries the high-end attributes of Audi's Q-code-named SUV.
But the Audi Q8 has no obvious personality orientation, and users can see it as a pure family model, and they can also find performance fun in it. The model is positioned as a medium and large SUV, but it is still a 5-seat layout, so this model does not need to worry about whether it is enough to give users in terms of space.
The space in the car is spacious enough, and the model also provides a reasonable allocation, the rear row can even out more seating area, the user's legs and head will not appear cramped, and even easily adjusted to a comfortable sitting position. The tail box of the model itself has a large enough capacity that it is rarely used to use such a large tail box space every day.
In order to match the ease of storage of the tail box capacity, the full range of models is equipped with a load compartment induction opening as standard. Especially when transporting things into the tail box, the tailgate can be opened directly by induction, which can be much more convenient. Even when driving the vehicle out of the door, there is enough space in the trunk to store the items needed for the trip.
The interior of the car is part of its comfort attribute, in addition to the model is equipped with soft and hard variable suspension and high and low adjustable air suspension. Its suspension can change with the adjustment of the driving mode, if the vehicle is in comfort mode, then the chassis texture of the model will be relatively soft, and it can retain a better filter effect during driving.
However, if it is in sport mode, the chassis texture will become tight, and its road sense feedback will be clearer, because the chassis texture will not be compatible with the too comfortable filter effect after the texture is hardened. But that's how sporty it feels, with the ability to bring a closely paced pace of pace after the speed is gradually raised, the body will return to the right side faster, and it can also have a stronger anti-roll ability in the corners.
It is also a full-time all-wheel drive model, which can independently distribute torque for the four wheels at any time. The model's power reserve is sufficient, it has a 2.0T in-line four-cylinder turbocharged engine, which provides 245 horsepower and 370 Nm of torque. There is also a 3.0T V-permutation 6-cylinder engine to choose from, with 340 hp and 500 Nm of torque.
When the car's driving mode is adjusted to off-road, the height of the chassis rises with it. The chassis of the SUV model itself has the advantage of providing sex, but under the action of air suspension, the height of the chassis will be further increased, which also retains the off-road attributes of the model, even if the terrain is more extreme, it can still retain enough ability to get out of trouble.
summary:
The Q8 may not be a beacon of Audi's future, nor will it be a subsidiary product of the sport attributes of the Q7. The reason why this model is considered to be the current Audi flagship SUV is because there is no higher-level model above the Q8. Even if it is the starting point of the model, it can stand shoulder to shoulder with Urus and Bentayga, because they are all under the same platform, so it would be reasonable for the Q8 to inherit the flagship label of the existing Audi Q series. The attributes of this model are not in a single request for extremes, but in the pursuit of comprehensive balanced development, so this model does not have a fixed personality label, its control attributes do not need users to deliberately cater to, the model will be based on the user as the core to follow the control section.
