These have changed the way Audi displays the car name, and at the same time further strengthened the status and height of the flagship model in the brand.

At the same time, the digital OLED taillight is also closely linked with the driving assistance system, and can also realize the proximity sensing function. When the vehicle is stationary and there are other road users approaching within two meters behind, all OLED taillight sections can be quickly and automatically activated to provide additional warnings to other traffic participants and reduce the risk of collision.

In terms of interior design, the new Audi Q8's interior design and layout remain the same as the current model, except that it comes standard with an extended leather interior package.

The entry-level 45TFSI model is equipped with a 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 195kW (265Ps), while other models are equipped with a 3.0T engine + 48V mild hybrid system, and are all matched with an 8-speed manual transmission. The maximum power of the 3.0T engine is 250kW (340Ps), the peak torque is 500N·m, and the acceleration time from 0 to 100km/h is 5.6s.

Under default conditions, the purely mechanical torque self-locking central differential quattro full-time four-wheel drive system can distribute 40% of the torque to the front axle and 60% to the rear axle, giving the vehicle a rear-wheel drive-biased driving characteristic. At the same time, when wheel slip is detected, the vehicle torque will be transferred from the slipping axle to the side with adhesion without delay. Under extreme conditions, up to 70% of the torque can be transmitted to the front axle, or up to 85% of the torque can be transmitted to the rear axle.

Summary of the full text:During this long-distance test drive, we experienced a variety of complex road conditions, including paved roads in the city, Danxia landforms in the canyon, rugged winding mountain roads, and extreme desert wilderness. The new Audi Q8, with its 3.0T V6+quattro full-time four-wheel drive, allowed us to easily conquer all road conditions. It has sporty attributes while also taking into account a certain degree of comfort. The overall tuning style is still very "Audi", and it is easy and comfortable to drive. It is worth mentioning that the changes in the design and configuration of the new car have further consolidated the label of the flagship SUV, and the "new ways of playing" such as the new CI brand logo, the new car name display method, and the new S/S-Line diamond red label have made the Audi brand more and more fashionable.
