Audi has made no changes to the RS Q8 for 2021.

Pros
Mega-powerful V-8 engine,
nimble chassis,
styling is more restrained than the mechanically similar Lambo Urus.

Cons
Slower and more expensive than the RS6 Avant,
brake feel isn't particularly confidence inspiring,
not quite as poised as a Porsche.

Nimble, lively handling puts most sports cars to shame
Comfortable, well-trimmed interior

Cons

Limited interior storage
Less practical than the related Q7
