2019 Audi Q8 review

1. Road trip ready 

Whether you like to go on weekend trips to the mountains or longer cross-country drives to National Parks, the 2019 Audi Q8 will keep everyone comfortable on the journey. Adaptive suspension is standard and air suspension is an available option, so you don’t need to feel road bumps. Leather seats, heated in front, come standard, as does a panoramic sunroof, so you’ll always be able to take in the views around you. 

2. Driver cockpit 

When you slip into the driver’s seat of the 2019 Audi Q8, you’ll feel like you’re at the helm of a ship, in the very best way. The 2019 Q8 comes with two touchscreens, both of which are angled toward the driver. The top 10.1-inch screen handles entertainment and navigation (another standard feature) while the bottom 8.6-inch screen is for climate control and drive settings. The standard Virtual Cockpit gauge cluster adds to the high-stakes feel.  

3. Outstanding sound system 

The 2019 Audi Q8 is a great car for musicians or just music enthusiasts. Apple Carplay^® and Android Auto^™ connectivity come standard, connecting to a 10-speaker audio system on the base trim. To really enjoy your tunes, choose the Premium Plus trim (one up from the base), which comes standard with a 17-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system. 

4. Driver assist features 

If you spend a lot of time behind the wheel, you’ll appreciate the driver assist features that are available in the 2019 Audi Q8. The base trim has emergency braking and automatic windshield wipers, but for more driver assist technology, choose the Premium Plus trim. That adds blind spot monitoring and Pre Sense, an Audi system that helps reduce the impact of a rear-end collision. The available Driver Assist package adds traffic sign recognition, intersection assist, adaptive cruise control, and lane-keep assist.  

5. Towing 

Whether you're a camping enthusiast or just like to bring your watercraft to the lake, the 2019 Audi Q8 can help you tow everything you need. With the standard 335-hp 3L turbocharged V6 engine, the 2019 Q8 can tow up to 7,700 pounds when properly equipped.
