The 2023 Geneva International Motor Show is not being held in Geneva, Switzerland, but rather in the Doha Exhibition and Convention Center in Qatar, which is located 2,900 miles away. This is the first Geneva International Motor Show after a three-year hiatus caused by the coronavirus pandemic. However, there will still be a separate event in Geneva next year.

Many big players in the automotive industry are attending the auto show in Qatar’s capital, including Audi. Audi has chosen this event to host the public debut of the 2024 Q8. The German luxury brand has displayed the high-performance version called the SQ8, which comes with a powerful twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine. This engine produces an impressive 500 horsepower and 568 pound-feet (770 Newton-meters) of torque.
