A 3.0-liter turbocharged TFSI V6 with 335 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque is mandatory.
It's backed by a 48-volt mild hybrid system for improved efficiency.
Shifting comes courtesy of ZF's ubiquitous and well-regarded 8-speed gearbox.

The Q8's rear end is easier to appreciate, with its full-length taillight band emphasizing the Q8's planted stance.

The Q8's optional air suspension affords up to 10 inches of ground clearance, enough to allow for a fair bit of dirty work.
