Today I review a pre-owned 2019 Audi Q8! The 2019 body style is the exact same as the current 2021 so if you are looking at a new Q8 the size and body style will be the same! I had a ton of feelings about this car as you can tell lol. On one hand I think it's a beautiful car and could be the perfect fit for some people. On the other hand, the cup holders & lack of storage make me want to drive it into a wall. Let me know what you think about this luxury SUV!

If car manufacturers consulted you- and other moms I feel like we would be a lot less disappointed 99% of the time 🤣

Girl, you've barely scratched the surface! There's a whole world of features waiting to be explored, like those sleek frameless windows, the genius storage compartment above your left knee, and the diverse range of packages available. Let's not forget about the adaptive air suspension, the upgraded Bang & Olufsen 3D Sound System that's like a concert on wheels, and those rear lights that light up the night. But hey, there's still so much more to talk about!

I love my frameless door because there's no seam at the top for ice to collect and freeze the door shut. My previous car did that on occasion. Never an issue anymore here in Minneapolis with my frameless doors 😀

Audi put the wireless charger there for safe driving. Drivers usually have their phone paired to the car and don’t need to see their phone for any reason while it’s charging. Besides doodling on your phone while driving isn’t safe. That particular trim you’re reviewing is also very based too..next time consider doing a higher trim level. Also the q8 isn’t a suv, it’s a cross over so it’s going to be on the smaller side.

@czechyrslf 2 жыл бұрын

I mean, I think she’s reviewing what she has on the lot and would have done a higher trim level if she had it. This vehicle is unfortunately pretty laughable for the cost.

@samufish Жыл бұрын

I just bought one so let me answer a question. The phone charger is in the center console because you don’t need it while driving. So close the lid, you good. This suv has apple car play. So your phone and most of your apps are accessible on the dash touchscreen and by voice. Sms, Apple Music, podcast, apps such as Waze, whats app, pandora, etc all accessible on screen. So put your phone on the charger not the cup holder.

@VisforVera 2 жыл бұрын

The screen for temperature controls is way too much and seems like an unnecessary extra cost. Kelly please consider touring a GMC Acadia!!

@lindsaysullivan6300 2 жыл бұрын

I have a 2012 Acadia and looked at the new one...super disappointing! Back 3rd row seats are so cramped and it’s shorter so the back “trunk” area is VERY small. Not impressed with it.

@rlkinser Жыл бұрын

Lift Gate Height -- Random FYI here, the height the lift gate will automatically opens to is user configurable. This car appears to have it set to a lower setting. Presumably the previous owner was a bit shorter. All you have to do is manually place the gate at the height you want then hold down the open/close button on the lift gate until it beeps.

@samufish Жыл бұрын

Thank you. This is good to know. Mine opens pretty high and my mom borrowed my car. Opened the lift gate and BAM!!! It hit the parking garage ceiling beam. So now I know I can set this lower. Thank you.

We had a 2021 Q8 Premium Plus with 22 inch wheels. I’m a tech guy, but dang, too much tech are going into some of these cars. We were constantly having issues with the tech stuff and radio. It’s a really cool car but like you said, storage is awful. At some point, too much tech and all the screens becomes problematic. Had to contact the Audi dealer after we brought it home just to allow my wife as a user on the car. The car is awesome and drives great, but it was an extremely frustrating experience between the storage and the tech. We dumped it after just one month.

@markseibert8270 2 жыл бұрын

What do you mean "you dumped it after just one month"? Who is covering the Depreciation, and were you not aware of the tech and storage before you brought it home?

@samufish Жыл бұрын

Sounds like you just didn’t know how to use your car 😮. Mine came with a manual. Just bought one 5 months ago and I love it. Let me point out that I’m a single man with a girlfriend, Meaning I don’t have kids and animals to transport. Usually it’s just she and I. Also a “tech guy”. Own my own tech startup. My only concern is maintenance after warranty ends. I may sell it by then and get a SQ8. Their value seems to hold quite nice.

@architecturehappy Жыл бұрын

Yeah I would agree with others, sounds like you didn’t do your research or were not familiar with Audi tech and not willing to learn for being a “tech guy”…. I had a loaner Q7 with the same multi-screen infotainment system and after a quick familiarization period my wife and I were both big fans.

I believe it is great for the car charger to be hidden. After all, we aren;t suppose to be texting and driving. Also, I am sure their is apple car display or android suppot for you to look at certian apps on your phone. I understand there should be a partition for your lip gloss and so forth but then again you do have your side door cubby for that. Good point about the quality,, the netting of the pockets is very poor.

I'd love to see a tour of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio! It looks amazing, and the reviews on the driving experience give it high marks, but it seems to be small on the interior. Wondering if it can at all work as a family vehicle, even if just for smaller family (1-2 kids). And I hate to be that person, but it's annoyed me in all your videos... the word is ESPECIALLY, not EXSPECIALLY. There is no X sound in the word

Even if I had enough money to buy a Lamborghini Urus, I would choose the Audi RSQ8 over it. 600hp, 23” wheels, ceramic breaks, seats 4 comfortably, half the price, more room than a Porsche but just as fast and I don’t care about the cup holders. I’m exactly who this car was made for.

This is just ridiculous. This is VW Cross Sport + 30k They shoud rebadge this and offer it as VW Cross Sport for 45-50K Cross Sport is OK but there is hard plastic everywhere on the interior so tthe Audi treatment would dress it up a bit. Other than that the 30K extra for the Audi is not offering you anything significant

Oh man, I like your videos but this one comes off a bit dramatic. Center console is fine, it’s not a deep cavern like minivans but that is what a purse or diaper bag is for right? Why would you remove the “arm rest”? It’s primary purpose is a place to rest your arm 😂. There is plenty of room for a “lip gloss”, and who still uses/carry’s spare change? You showed your phone fits fine in the cup holder if you don’t need to charge it, or if you do put it in the center console….what’s so hard to understand?
