Audi RSQ8 Performance Carbon Vorsprung

Audi's RSQ8 Performance is the most extreme expression of the Q8 platform, pairing a 631 bhp twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 with quattro all-wheel drive and a torque figure of 850 Nm. Performance numbers are in supercar territory for a vehicle of this size, with Audi quoting 0-62 mph in 3.6 seconds, while the top speed of 174 mph reflects the optional limiter raise. Towing capacity of 3,500 kg keeps it genuinely useful as well.

This 2024 (74-plate) example has covered just 7,250 miles with a single owner from new. It is finished in Mythos Black paint with the RS Design Pack Plus in red for the interior, a combination that gives the cabin a sharper, more purposeful look than the usual all-black cars. Vorsprung is the top trim level, and Carbon denotes the carbon-fibre exterior and interior trim package.

Equipment includes a panoramic glass sunroof, 360-degree camera system, 4-zone climate control, and electrically adjustable front seats with memory for driver and passenger. The Tour Pack adds adaptive cruise control, making this as capable a long-distance machine as it is a fast one.
