Audi RS Q8

The Audi RS Q8 reaches 60 mph in 3.37 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.79 s, tripping the lights at 117.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.76 s and the eighth mile in 7.55 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.60 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the RS Q8

The 2020 Audi RS Q8 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 2,400 kg with 591 bhp, which works out at 246 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.76 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 421st quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 33rd quickest of the 261 Audis here. It leaves better than it pulls: 117.1 mph at the lights is only the 658th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

What cars are comparable to the Audi RS Q8?
Closest here on pace: Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S V167 (3.36 s), Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S X253 (3.31 s), BMW X6 M F96 facelift (3.48 s). Each one can be raced against the Audi RS Q8 in the panel at the top of this page.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Audi RS Q8 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-09-01. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
