Most Helpful Review

Sportback after 7000 kms

It is a flashy car and you will get the best looks in this price range but mileage and features will be a tradeoff for the sporty looks. Not even a 360 camera at this price. City mileage sometimes drops to pathetic levels as low as 6.5 kmpl. The drive feel is good and acceleration and stability at high speeds are impressive.

Audi RS Q8 First Drive Review

By Vikrant Singh04 Sep 2020

No, this is not an Audi Q8 in gothic makeup and a pair of heels too high. This is the genuine item that’s underlined by – too much power, too much torque, too much money, and too much fun! This is the Audi RS Q8.
