2022 Audi Q8 Pricing and Trims

The 2022 Audi Q8 SUV sees a considerable price hike of $2,700 and now starts at a price of $71,995. This major price hike is justified by the added features for the base Premium trim while the Premium Plus trim gets more driver safety aids. Audi has also added more creature comforts to the options packages to make the Q8 a more lucrative option.

Offered in a classic trim configuration as all other Audi cars which includes Premium, Premium Plus, and Prestige trims, each trim offers value to buyers of every budget. The new options packages and the added optional features further add to the practicality of the 2022 Q8. That said, the Audi Q8 is up against the coupe-styled SUVs such as the BMW X6, and Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Coupe, Porsche Cayenne. 

How much does it cost to own the 2022 Audi Q8?

The pricing for the 2022 Audi Q8 starts at an MSRP of $71,995 which includes the $1,095 destination charge. The SUV is available for sale with the finance offers starting at an APR of 3.25% for up to 60 months. Lease deals begin at a monthly payment of $859 for a 36-month duration along with an $895 acquisition fee for 30,000 miles of mileage limit. 

Rivals like BMW and Porsche have a much higher monthly payment scheme as compared to Audi, making the Q8 2022 the more sensible choice. On the other hand, the 74/100 reliability rating from J.D. Power puts it behind the competition, while the low 5-year cost of ownership value of around $72,000 puts it back in the game.
