I see one every morning, keep thinking its a Hyundai Tucson
They are a bit bland. I’ve seen a few bright coloured ones on the motorway but I saw a parked up black one in Edinburgh the other day and it had little presence.

The thing that is obvious from the inside photos is that everything looks Audi apart from the badges. Well done to them I guess for selling a Q8 with some yellow stitching. Same goes for Bentley and Porsche in different ways I guess.

I wonder how much spit from as many different people you’d find if you tested the exterior.
I have to say that these are probably the most understood Lamborghini model ever produced, the majority of haters wouldn’t even notice it.

I saw these 2 recently at the wheel refurbishers I use. I love Lambos but I just don’t get the appeal of these - I don’t think there’s a good angle to look at anywhere. The cost of them is utterly eye-watering for an Audi in a fancy (and unattractive, IMO) frock.

These high end SUV are Emperor's New Clothes.
They are really. Sports cars are nearly dead and even the future for supercars looks bleak in any real volume as younger people with money want a top end SUV. Or maybe people who would have bought a Huracan will now have that and a Urus but if the performance of the latter is so good why would people bother with the former given it only has two seats and is hard to get in/out of, can't see round corners etc etc. Not my view as I can't see why a Macan should outsell an RS4 but I got that one wrong!

Purely a trophy, from what I can see. A mixed bag of compromises...there's no "U" in the SUV part of this. No third row, you likely aren't towing/hauling, and I don't see them offroading...
