A dual-screen infotainment system, featuring a 10-inch primary display and an 8.5-inch secondary screen, is complemented by the Audi Virtual Cockpit, B&O premium sound system, and button-less MMI Navigation. Enhanced comfort is ensured with features like electronically adjustable front seats, four-zone climate control, and premium leather upholstery. In terms of safety, the Q8 comes equipped with an Audi pre-sense basic, eight airbags, and an Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP).
