The 2025 Audi RS Q8 Performance gets more power and new looks, while remaining about $100,000 less expensive than its cousin, the Lamborghini Urus.

The 2025 Audi RS Q8 picks up the Performance name, and its specs suggest there's plenty of it to go around.

Under the hood is a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 producing 631 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque.

That makes the RS Q8 Performance the most powerful combustion-engine RS model that money can buy.

With standard all-wheel drive, this super-SUV will reach 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds, according to Audi. We think it's even quicker than that.

The RS Q8 Performance's newfound power comes from an increase in boost pressure, as well as a new exhaust that sheds a couple pounds and offers even more sound than before.

An adaptive air suspension is standard.

While 22-inch wheels come standard, buyers can opt for larger 23-inch alloys wrapped in Pirelli P Zero summer rubber.

Audi acknowledges that most owners will never take this car to the track, but if they do, they can have just as much fun as anyone else.

The RS Q8's $137,495 starting price is about $39,000 more than an SQ8, but it remains some $100,000 less expensive than a similarly equipped Lamborghini Urus.

Keep going to check out more pictures of the 2025 Audi RS Q8 Performance.
