Test drove on a Saturday just to be told it was dealer traded. Tried to buy several others as far as 400 miles away just to be told they were gone as well. Ironically the SUV I test drove went on the market while in transit and I bought it. Best decision I could have made. This SUV performs superbly and has all the bells and whistles you would need. It can be a nanny vehicle but if you don't want that the 'offenders' can be shut off. It will take sometime to learn the intricacies but there are plenty of videos to help. Only cons would be that there is not a lot of interior cubby space and of course gas mileage should you put the hammer down (but of such fun!).

If you like the Q8, you'll love the SQ8

Traded in my Q8 for the SQ8. I always said the Q8 is the "coupe" SUV for those who don't buy into the "coupe" SUV - the SQ8 offers the same luxury experience plus a sweet V8 and trick suspension just because. Pros: The power, obviously. If you can find a good stretch of road, the SQ8 rips through the gears at an incredibly smooth and alarming rate. The V8 noise ensures that it never gets old. It handles better than the standard Q8, yet the ride quality is 95% as good (the Q8 had 21" wheels while my SQ8 has 22"). Well-built/designed, comfortable, and spacious interior befitting of a six figure German car. Really good driver assistance pack - better than my '19 Q8 and almost as good as a 2022 S Class I recently drove. Cons: Hilariously useless storage compartments. TPMS doesn't actually tell you how much air your tires have (pretty sure Honda offers that on the Civic) - it just screams at you that one of them has a "loss of pressure". Much like the Q8, transmission isn't always at the ready when you stab the throttle - less of an issue in dynamic mode. Even after 3+ years, the infotainment is still distracting and many features are locked out while driving. Bottom line: I put 40,000 miles on my last Q8 with only minor electrical glitches along the way. The SQ8 offers more of the same experience without having to second guess whether you can overtake the car in front.

Short and simple… drives like a tank accept no cars can beat you on the road regardless of the road conditions. The infotainment system could be a little more responsive but it is not a deal breaker. This review is coming from a guy who drove BMW since 2004. Of course I missed my x5 2019 but the sq8 is the beast I am in love with drive of this car. I have 2 kids, 2 car seats and never ran out of spec.

This beauty has unbelievable power and makes a statement no matter where we go !! 0-60 in 4 seconds 💕 Love the interior with upgraded leather seats and sound system. I’ve owner the Porsche Cayenne, Cadillac Escalade and many others over the years but this amazing SUV is hands down the best.

This car touches inside with the finest materials available. From the suede headliner to the Napa massaging seats and full Leather surroundings, you feel like you are in the peak of luxury with superior and high-level technology. Press down on the accelerator, and you can hear the burble of a 500 hp V-8 engine which propels you through corners in complete balance with a sports package and all wheel steering. Cruise on the highway in silence with its double paned insulating glass on all of its windows. Sound system is spectacular with about 2000 W in 23 speakers. Love it!
