CONFIG – Go on a family vacation in style with our Audi SQ8!

This time, we thought about the many families who will be going on vacation by car this summer. The farther you go, the more important the choice of vehicle becomes. That’s great, we have the perfect car for traveling away from the family: the Audi SQ8! Here is our setup.

It’s never too early to start planning your summer vacation. Book a camp or hotel, plan a trip, check that the swimsuits are still the right size … So many boring, but important steps! The car is also a factor that should not be neglected, especially when the destination is several hundred kilometers away. This makes the journey more pleasant, both for the driver and the passengers. Indeed, the Audi SQ8 is among the best options on the market!

As the flagship of the brand’s SUV range, the SQ8 offers plenty of comfort and luxury, but also great performance. It has a 4.0 twin-turbo V8 with 507 horsepower and 770 Nm of torque, enough to stick a banana for the children sitting in the back and for the adult holding the steering wheel. And 0 to 100 km / h reached in 4.1 seconds, despite its weight more than 2 tons, we expected not less! Your bank teller, on the other hand, may not smile when he sees the bill, SQ8 sold from 135,000 euros.

On the outside, we wanted an elegant color, without going back to black or gray, which was very traditional. We chose the metallic Ascari Blue, for 1,250 euros. We also replaced the standard rims with 23-inch Audi Sport models, priced at 3,000 euros. We also added Matrix LED headlights with laser light for 1,500 euros, as well as OLED rear lights for 1,300 euros. On the other hand, we chose to leave certain elements in aluminum, which perfectly contrasts with the color of the body.

Inside, we started by adding Sport Plus seats up front, wearing Valcona leather upholstery. We also looked at the import of decorative carbon fiber. Aiming for a comfortable ride, we opted for massage and ventilation functions in the front, while rear passengers also benefited from heated seats. To make the driver’s job easier, we have also thought of adding the Road Assistance Package and the City Assistance Package which includes several driving aids.

To complete this setup, we chose the assisted door closing option (gentle closing), to avoid distraction in the emergency room because your child will have broken 4 knuckles by slamming the door. For the family’s blind test, we chose the Bang & Olufsen Advanced Hi-Fi with its 3D, for the same 6,250 euros. As a bonus, we added a header display. We could not resist the aluminum tank block, the price of 89 euros.

Considering everything we looked at, we would have expected a heavier addition than 24,089 euros

With our Audi SQ8, you will be the king of the sunny highway, even in traffic jams! Your children will be able to watch others from the rear seat of Valcona leather, while listening to music broadcast by a sound system costing more than 6,000 euros. But do not forget to instill real values ​​in them, reminding them that money does not fall from the sky … In this regard, we reach a total score of 159,089 euros, including 24,089 euros of options, to which must be added 60,000 euros of ecological penalty. Save more tears, because you also have to pay a weight penalty … If you don’t have too many SUVs, you can opt for our Audi RS4, which your kids will love too!
