“Prestige trim money for 34,000 miles on the worst-depreciating Audi — the curve says wait.”

Analysis

The 2024 Audi Q8 e-tron Prestige stickered over $80,000 new, and $45,587 looks like a big discount until you check the depreciation curve. The Q8 e-tron is among the fastest-depreciating Audis — used 2024 models with lower miles trade in the low $40,000s, and JD Power shows people paying $32,600-$47,500.

At 34,020 miles, this example should price in the lower-middle of that range, not the top. The Prestige trim does not insulate you from the curve. This is a MOOSED on price — the same car with patience (or fewer miles) costs meaningfully less.

Market Comparison

Used 2024 Audi Q8 e-tron models show an extremely wide range: JD Power reports buyers paying $32,645-$47,552, with lower-mile examples in the low $40,000s. At $45,587 with 34,020 miles, this Prestige sits at the top of the range despite above-average miles — the wrong end for a car still depreciating fast.
