Pros & Cons

RS Q8 Pros & Cons	GLS Pros & Cons
Pros	It shares its DNA with the Lamborghini Urus - same platform and engine. This 2494 kg SUV can do 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds. Can also be used as a daily driver considering its comfortable ride. It looks much more handsome and sharper than the regular Q8.	Has a highly luxurious cabin Looks Macho Sufficiently Capable off the road
Cons	The exhaust note could have been better. Despite its outstanding screens and interior layout, it appears outdated when compared to other German luxury SUVs. Not as practical as other Audi cars. The 4.0L V8 drinks fuel like a fish.	Expensive to buy and maintain
