A \u003cstrong\u003e106 kWh\u003c\/strong\u003e Q8 e-tron 55 takes about 16 hours 15 minutes to fill from empty at 7.4 kW. On a 16A cable that becomes over 32 hours, which is not an overnight charge by any definition, so the 16A is the wrong buy here even though it is cheaper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThen check the left hand side of your car. The \u003cstrong\u003e22 kW twin charger was a cost option\u003c\/strong\u003e and it needed a second charge flap on the near side. If your Q8 e-tron has two flaps and you charge somewhere with three phase power, the three-phase cable genuinely doubles your rate. If it has one flap, or you charge at home, it does nothing the 32A single phase does not already do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo not confuse this car with the \u003cstrong\u003eAudi Q8 TFSI e\u003c\/strong\u003e, which is a petrol plug-in hybrid on the conventional Q8 body, takes 7.4 kW and is a different car entirely.

The Audi Q8 e-tron is fully electric, formerly called the Audi e-tron. The Audi Q8 TFSI e is a petrol plug-in hybrid built on the conventional Q8 and it accepts 7.4 kW.
