The S line 55 quattro variants get a 408 PS/664 Nm dual-motor AWD powertrain which propels the RM475,790 Q8 e-tron S line 55 quattro (RM488,790 with the Audi Assurance Package) from 0-100 km/h in 5.6 seconds, fed by a 114 kWh (106 kWh usable) battery that offers up to 582 km of range.
Its coupé-roofed sibling, the RM485,790 Q8 e-tron S line 55 quattro (RM498,790 with the Audi Assurance Package) with the same powertrain and battery gets slightly more range at 600 km.
In terms of charging capabilities for both the Q8 e-tron and Q8 Sportback e-tron in S line 55 quattro guise, both take up to 170 kW DC charging, which yields a 0-80% state of charge in 31 minutes, while charging at 22 kW AC bringing a full charge in six hours.
