Audi has previewed a planned future flagship SUV model with the unveiling of the near-to-production-ready Q8 concept at the 2017 Detroit motor show.
Set to go on sale in Australia in 2018 at a starting price over $110,000, the big new Audi has been conceived to sit above the recently introduced second-generation Q7 as a rival to the likes of the Range Rover Sport, boasting a uniquely styled exterior, luxuriously equipped interior, heady performance potential and, in combination with a new 330kW plug in petrol-electric hybrid drivetrain showcased by the Audi concept, the capability of running exclusively on electricity for a distance of up to 60km.
Drawing on the styling lineage first explored on the smaller all-electric e-tron quattro concept revealed at the 2015 Frankfurt motor show as well as the existing second-generation Q7, the Q8 concept receives a bold appearance credited to Audi design boss, Marc Lichte.
