Last summer, Audi went and trademarked the RS Q8
nameplate, which in turn let us know that a bonkers version of their upcoming
Coupe SUV was definitely in the cards. We also know that it will probably
feature large oval exhausts, bigger wheels,
bigger brakes and a body kit that should turn this already sporty-looking
crossover into something that belongs in the same conversation as a BMW X6 M or a Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 Coupe.
That’s pretty much what X-Tomi Design had in mind
too when he took the new Q8 and dropped it closer to the road, gave it new
wheels, a modified bumper, new grille, black mirror casings and some black
inserts throughout. What’s funny is that the more aggressive the Q8 looks, the
less inclined we feel to call it a Coupe SUV. It really does give off a jacked
up wagon vibe, something our readers, seem to agree with.
The car is based on the same platform as the Lamborghini Urus, but even
if it does have the latter’s 4.0-liter twin turbo V8 engine, we don’t know if
it will put down the same 650 PS and 850 Nm of torque.
As for what it will look like on the inside, take
the cabin of the Q8, add sportier seats, carbon fiber, Alcantara, some contrast
stitching, and you’ll probably get the picture right.
