What sets the Audi SQ8 apart?
The SQ8 shares its 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 mild hybrid with the SQ7, producing around 500bhp and reaching 62mph in roughly 4.1 seconds through quattro all-wheel drive. What sets it apart is its sloping coupe-SUV roofline, giving it a lower, sportier silhouette than the boxier Q7-based models, paired with air suspension and available rear-wheel steering for composed, agile handling.
Is the SQ8 practical despite the coupe roof?
Yes. While the fastback shape trades some rear headroom and boot height versus the SQ7, the SQ8 remains a spacious five-seat SUV with a large, usable boot. Inside you get the same luxurious materials, triple-screen technology and refined long-distance manners, so it delivers head-turning style without giving up the practicality buyers expect from a large SUV.
Who should hire an SQ8?
It is for the driver who wants performance-SUV muscle wrapped in a more design-led, coupe body. Short-term hire lets you enjoy it for the months that suit you, with nothing to sell afterwards. Explore the full prestige range or get a guide quote with no obligation.
