The Audi RS Q8 needs more power, Wheelsandmore at least did, and the performance SUV can
be had with jaw-dropping amounts of power, as the tuner has endowed it with
Bugatti Veyron 16.4-rivaling levels of output and torque.
Priced at a whopping € 41,933 in Germany which equals to US$ 47,029 at current exchange rates and includes installation, Stage 5 brings a
whole lot of extra kit that unleashes a massive 996 HP and 1,250 Nm of torque.
In return for € 33,529 (US$ 37,604),
Wheelsandmore will sell you the Stage 4 that comes with 951 HP (965 PS) and 1,250 Nm. Stage 3 is priced at a more decent € 12,521
(US$ 14,043), compared to the aforementioned kits anyway, and brings 775 HP and 1,060 Nm.
You could have Jeep Grand Cherokee
Trackhawk levels of power in the RS Q8 with the Stage 2 package, which costs
€ 7,688 (US$ 8,622) and lifts the numbers to 715 HP and 930 Nm. Stage 1 costs a more modest € 2,100 (US$ 2,355) and
brings 700 HP and 920 Nm.
Without the tuner’s intervention, the
4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 pumps out 591 HP and 800
Nm. It’s matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission that channels the
output to the rear-biased quattro all-wheel drive system, enabling a 0-96 km/h sprint of 3.7 seconds and a 305 km/h top speed.
For an extra € 1,680 (US$ 1,884), you could
get the LowMaXX system that can lower the original air suspension of the car
via a smartphone app. Finally, the last upgrade of the RS Q8 available from
Wheelsandmore takes care of, well, its wheels, which measure 10.5×24 inches at
the front and 12.5×24 inches at the rear, and come with 295/30 and 355/25
Vredestein tires respectively.
