Caralogy Analysis · tailored to this vehicle

Caralogy Verdict

Suitable for

Home-to-office commute up to 60 km in pure electric. Overnight charging is sufficient. 1st of 5 in Combined range (1779 km), 1st of 5 in Thermal cons. estimated (4.4 L/100), 2nd of 5 in 0–100 km/h (5.0 s).

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Electric WLTP range, the Audi Q7 SUV (1st with 77 km) takes the lead. If the priority is 0–100 km/h, the Audi Q7 SUV (1st with 5.0 s) takes the lead.

In the city: 74 km pure electric ( (mid-table))

With a full battery, the Q8 SUV drives in pure electric mode for the first 74 km WLTP — placing it 3rd of 5 in Electric WLTP range, behind the Audi Q7 SUV (77 km). In urban and peri-urban use, the Q8 SUV behaves like a pure electric sedan in its segment.
