2021 Lamborghini Urus vs. 2022 Audi RS Q8

Lamborghini Urus vs. Audi RS Q8

Comparing the Lamborghini Urus vs. Audi Q8? The Audi doesn’t stand a chance unless you choose the high-performance RS configuration, and even then, the Lamborghini is in an entirely different league. Sure, you’ll spend more on a new Urus than you’d spend on a new RS Q8—but if you’re looking for the best of the best, or want a model that will always stand out on Virginia and Maryland highways, you simply can’t afford to overlook the Lamborghini.


Performance: Lamborghini Urus vs. Audi Q8

The Lamborghini Urus and the Audi RS Q8 both offer standard performance features including all-wheel drive, four-wheel steering, carbon-ceramic brake pads, and an active rear differential. But once you start to look at the numbers, it’s clear that the Urus wins out in every area that counts:

  • Engine Output: Both models include a 4.0L V8 engine with twin turbochargers, but the Lamborghini Urus outputs 641 hp and 627 lb-ft of torque. With 591 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque, the Audi RS Q8 will tend to fall behind.
  • Acceleration: With the ability to accelerate from 0 to 62 MPH in 3.6 seconds, the Urus is slightly quicker than its rival. The RS Q8 has a 0–60 time of 3.7 seconds.
  • Base Curb Weight: The Urus has a much better power-to-weight ratio than the Audi RS Q8. The latter weighs 5490 pounds as standard—making it more than 600 pounds heavier than an Urus.
  • Turning Diameter (Curb to Curb): The Urus isn’t just faster and more powerful. With a turning diameter of 38.7 feet, it’s also better at handling! The RS Q8 needs almost five more feet in order to execute the same maneuver.
  • Brake Pads: With larger 17.3-inch front brake pads, compared to 16.5 inches in the Audi, the Lamborghini is better at stopping on a dime.

Style & Design: Lamborghini Urus vs. Audi Q8

The high-performance Audi RS Q8 looks a lot like your average, run-of-the-mill Audi Q8. The Lamborghini Urus, on the other hand, looks like absolutely nothing else on the road. If you’re ready to stand out on the roads of the DC Metro area, there’s no comparison: once you’ve seen the Urus up close, no Audi SUV will ever look the same. 

Among many other distinctive exterior elements, the Urus features:

  • Sharper headlamps
  • A more dramatic sloping roofline
  • Geometric wheel arches
  • A more sculpted bonnet

It’s also important to note that the Urus is much more customizable than the Audi:

  • The Lamborghini Urus offers 23 unique exterior colors, compared to 9 for the Audi RS Q8
  • The cabin of the Lamborghini Urus can be configured with your choice between 21 unique interior color palettes. The Audi RS Q8 interior is only available in 3 subdued shades.
