Audi Power: first SUV coupé from Audi

Audi Q8 (F1) 50 (3.0) TDI

Audi Q8 50 TDI

BWM founded the SUV coupe segment in 2008 with the X6, Mercedes followed suit in 2015 with the GLE Coupe. Around 10 years have passed since the X6 and now the Audi Q8 is rolling on Germany's roads. At the front is a beefy octagonal single-frame grille, which now adorns all models of the Q series. The Q8 is also adorned with the continuous light strip in the rear, which is reserved for the top models. A V6 diesel engine works under the hood as standard and produces 286 hp in the Q8 50 TDI. However, the Ingolstadt native does not do justice to his sporty appearance. This is exactly where the CPA PowerBox comes in with its motor-specific software. The PowerBox Nitro can produce up to 73 hp and a brute 155 NM. The V6 revs up more joyfully, but without being intrusive or nervous. Otherwise, the three-liter diesel engine makes little fuss about its actions, it cooperates perfectly with the 8-speed tiptronic and the Quattro all-wheel drive. To take the groundbreaking technology in the Q8 to the next level, there is CPA's Connective System, which creates a synergy between PedalBox and PowerBox. As the driver, you decide via the remote control how the trip will be, from Sport+ to Comfort to Eco II.
