2024 Audi Q8 Sportback e-tron Review

by the Edmunds Experts

What's new

A subtle restyle and new name for what was previously the Audi e-tron Sportback
Increased range stretches up to 300 miles
Steering and suspension revisions for improved agility
Kicks off the Q8 Sportback e-tron nameplate for 2024, but this is a refresh of the first e-tron generation introduced for 2019

Overview

The electric SUV formerly known as Audi e-tron Sportback gets a rebrand and update for 2024. Now called the Q8 Sportback e-tron, this is the electric SUV that's mechanically identical to the Q8 e-tron. The main difference between the two is styling. The Sportback has a more coupe-like roofline that provides a sportier look at the expense of some rear seat and cargo space.

EPA Estimated Range

EV batteries lose 1-2% of range per year. Est. range for this car is 255 miles after 8 years.^{Electric cars typically experience 1-2% of range loss per year with slightly faster degradation over the first 50,000 miles as the car settles into its long term state, according to Recurrent's study of 15,000 EVs.}

Estimated range map^{This map is a visual representation of the possible one-way and round-trips by this vehicle (on a full charge) from the geometric center of Moses Lake, Washington. The depicted ranges are based on the estimated new vehicle range value provided by the EPA, rounded down to miles for one-way and miles for round-trip. Actual range will vary depending on the condition of this vehicle’s battery pack, how you drive, driving conditions and other factors.Map display generated using: © openrouteservice.org by HeiGIT | Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors | Leaflet} from

Charging

Plug Type

16 hrs

240V Home Charging^{Estimated total charging time when using a 240V outlet. This is either a 3-prong or 4-prong outlet used for appliances, for example a clothes dryer.}

EV batteries should be kept at 30-80% charged to extend battery life.

EV Battery Warranty

8 yrs or 100,000 miles^{The federal government requires that EV batteries be warrantied for a minimum of eight years or 100,000 miles. The EV battery warranty includes replacement if your battery capacity drops below a certain percentage of the original capacity.}

Am I Ready for an EV?

EV ownership works best if you can charge (240V) at home or at work ^{This typically means a 240V home installation, but you could also have a similar setup at your office or other places your car is already parked for several hours each day. Don't expect a regular household outlet (120V) to suffice unless you've got a plug-in hybrid, in which case overnight charging at home is feasible.}
If you can’t charge at home, charging at a charging station could take at least 10x longer than at a gas station ^{With public charging infrastructure still in its infancy, the user experience can be maddeningly inconsistent. Tesla owners tend to rave about the reliability and speed of the company's proprietary Supercharger stations, but rival DC fast options have thus far been plagued by technical issues and overcrowding. It's an evolving landscape and our best advice is to do your research on the available options for the EV you want to buy.}
Adding a 240V home charging system could cost up to $1,600 or more ^{If your existing electrical service can handle the additional demands of EV charging, you may be able to add Level 2 charging at home for less than a grand, including installation. But your costs will multiply if you need to upgrade your electrical panel or add a dedicated circuit.}

Edmunds spotlight: The same size battery but bigger

In the context of electric vehicle batteries, size usually refers not to the actual dimensions of the pack but to its energy-storage capacity. In the case of the Q8 Sportback e-tron, the 2024 model's pack is not physically bigger, but it can store 23% more energy than last year's. This means increased range without a dimensionally larger battery intruding into the cabin and eating into passenger space. Audi increased the energy density of the Q8 Sportback e-tron's battery through improvements in chemistry and the packaging of the individual battery cells within the pack. Along with a more efficient motor on the rear axle and aerodynamic enhancements, this means the 2024 Q8 Sportback e-tron can go some 30% farther on a charge with a battery that is the same size … but bigger.

Competitors to consider

Audi was among the first to take on the Tesla Model X, but the funky BMW iX and frumpy Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV present fresher — and quicker — challenges. And despite the Q8 e-tron's battery enhancements for 2024, its two German rivals continue to offer superior range. The Genesis GV70 falls well short in the latter regard but boasts an impressive interior design and excellent road manners at a base price that starts about $10,000 lower.

Which Q8 Sportback e-tron does Edmunds recommend?

The midlevel Premium Plus is the sweet spot in the lineup. To the Premium's lengthy list of standard features, it adds ventilated front seats, heated outboard rears, a 360-degree camera for tight parking situations, and a Bang & Olufsen audio system.
