Audi Q8 e-tron configurators go live in Europe
It only has been a month since Audi unveiled its refreshed Q8 e-tron with better battery technology and some design updates, and now both German and the UK websites launched the configurators with full pricing and specifications.
The cheapest model in the UK is the Audi Q8 Sport 50 e-tron - it starts at GBP 67,085. For that amount we are getting the 340 hp (250 kW) AWD model with the 95 kWh (89 kWh usable) battery pack. The battery can be either charged at 11 kW AC or at up to 150 kW DC, charging at home at 11 kW from 0 to 100% takes nearly 10 hours.
This same model is priced at EUR 75,450 on the German website. The Q8 50 e-tron has a top speed of 200 km/h (124 mph) and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6 seconds flat. The range is quoted at 488 km (up to 283 miles).
On the other end of the scale in Germany is the Q8 S line 55 e-tron priced at EUR 87,950 before any options. Weirdly the “S line” trim requires an additional “S line interior” option for a complete package at an extra EUR 2,850. For another EUR 6,975 we can add “edition S line” trim - it comes with 21” black wheels, black mirrors, red brake calipers and Audi beam LED headlights projecting the brand’s logo.
This same specification is available in the UK as the Black Edition which starts at GBP 84,435. Both vehicles are powered by the 300 kW (408 hp) dual-motor AWD system coupled with the larger, 114 kWH (106 kWh usable) battery. Top speed is the same as the other models but acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 5.6 seconds.
The top specification in the UK is the Vorsprung model priced at an eye-watering GBP 99,085. The 22” rims are standard and so is the exclusive Valcona leather interior. The car comes standard with the Tour Pack which offers adaptive cruise control, adaptive cruise assist and lane change assist, predictive efficiency and turn assist as well as swerve assist.
City Assist, Park Assist and camera door mirrors are included as well. The extended 5 year warranty is offered in the UK at GBP 1,670 and there are servicing pre-paid packages available.
