Audi India has launched the Q8 e-tron in India with a starting price of Rs 1.13 crore. The Sportback version is priced at Rs 1.18 crore. The Q8 e-tron is the updated version of the earlier e-tron with more range and butch styling. The Q8 e-tron comes with a dual motor layout and a 114kWh battery pack. Compared to the earlier Q8 e-tron the new one delivers more range at 600 km for the 55 variant while in terms of power, it delivers 408hp and 664Nm of torque with a claimed 0-100 km/h time of 5.6 seconds. With a DC fast charger, the Q8 e-tron can charge from 10-80 per cent in just 31 minutes.

There is also the e-tron 50 with a 505km range. Styling wise the new Q8 e-tron gets a more aggressive face with a black grille surround and a new 2D grille along with a light bar. The bumper design is also altered.

The features list of the Q8 e-tron includes heated/ventilation and massage seats along with a twin touchscreen design plus the Audi digital instrument cluster.

As you would expect the Q8 e-tron is pretty well equipped with features like a 16-speaker Bang and Olufsen audio system plus a panoramic sunroof and a 360-degree view camera amongst others. The highlight of the Q8 e-tron is that you can raise the ground clearance and the standard ground clearance is also very good which helps it on our roads.

Another highlight is that the Q8 e-tron gets twin charging ports on both sides of the vehicle which makes it very convenient in terms of charging the car.

The Q8 e-tron does not get many rivals but has the BMW iX as the main rival in terms of size and power.
