In principle, the Audi RS Q8 can be described as a cheaper alternative to the Lamborghini Urus. But with the upgrades from ABT Sportsline the crossover becomes the big brother of the Urus. According to the tuner, the RS Q8-S package increases the power and torque of the twin-turbocharged 4,0-liter V8 to a hefty 700 hp and an impressive 880 Nm of torque. As far as we know, this is made possible by the high-techAdditional unit ABT Engine Control. Compared to the series with 600 PS & 800 Nm, this is of course an announcement. According to ABT, the sprint to 100 km/h takes just 3,8 seconds. As far as we know, the maximum speed remains unchanged.
