The big Audi EV offers a serene driving experience and improved range.
The Audi's improved efficiency isn't just from the aero updates. The Q8 uses two motors, and for 2024, the rear motor gets extra windings that allow it to create a stronger magnetic field from the same incoming electricity. The result is more torque and reduced energy consumption. Couple that with a higher-capacity battery , and you get more range.
Recharging times have also improved. The 2024 Q8 can now take in 170 kilowatts at a DC faster-charger and should be able to go from an almost-empty 10 percent battery to a back-in-action 80 percent in around 31 minutes, according to Audi. For Level 2 home charging, the standard 9.6-kW charger will refill the battery overnight , while an optional 19.2-kW setup can do it in half that time.We have to admit we weren't doing charging math while behind the wheel of the Q8 e-tron.
