Gearbox Type: 8-Speed Tiptronic (Automatic)
The Q8 utilizes an 8-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission with a torque converter. This gearbox is designed to handle the high torque of the V6 engine while providing the smooth, nearly imperceptible shifts expected in a flagship luxury vehicle.
Drive Type: Quattro Permanent All-Wheel Drive
The Q8 features the legendary Quattro permanent all-wheel-drive system with a self-locking center differential. In normal conditions, it sends 40% of the power to the front and 60% to the rear, but it can dynamically adjust this to provide maximum traction on wet or loose surfaces common in India.
