Audi RS Q8:
The Audi Q8 is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV made by Audi that was launched in 2018. It is the flagship of the Audi SUV line, and is being produced at the Volkswagen Bratislava Plant.

Within the Volkswagen Group's product lineup, the Q8 shares its platform with the Q7 and the Lamborghini Urus, among other products. The Q8 is slightly shorter than the Q7 in terms of both length and height but is slightly wider.
