The new V8 TFSI is a better engine. It has more hp and accelerates faster (in 4.1seconds comparing to 4.8 in TDI). Moreover, TFSI is much lighter and therefore it eliminates understeering. And it sounds way better than the diesel....

@@MAN__IN__BLACK And you pay three times more in gas over a few thousand kms which in Europe is significant...RIP big diesels... great engines..

@@goncalosantos5253 if you can afford to buy Audi SQ8, you don’t give a damn about the cost of maintenance...

@@MAN__IN__BLACK I can afford and I actually own a Macan Turbo which fuel bills (in Europe) are outrageous for someone that has to deal with a big daily commute. I do have a comfortable financial situation but like many of us around here im no millionaire so i try to get some nice balance between performance and running costs. Before the Macan Turbo (great car btw) I had a 535d almost as fast on the real world and far more economical. I do not wish to “fight” about this, just making a point for the rationale of big diesels which, in my view, are being ruled out too soon. Cheers!

@@MAN__IN__BLACK but diesel engines are nice

I have a a8 4.2 diesel 2015 and its like 8
