Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives
Audi Q8
  • Great car to drive. Subtle design but still great road presence. Plenty of space. Least expensive of the German luxury full size flagship SUVs.
Land Rover Defender
  • It's bigger
  • better and easier to live with. Up to date tech. Comfier
  • upmarket interiors.
Audi Q8
  • Very short features list. Misses some geeky features like ventilated seats and ADAS that many cars in lower price brackets have.
Land Rover Defender
  • Not as cushy a ride as it's other stablemates. Might take the self satisfaction out of off-roading for the hard-core enthusiast.
