This "Quickest EVER Audi RS Cars: DRAG RACE" video pits the Audi S e-tron GT, RS6 GT, and R8 GT against each other in a series of drag races and a brake test. The S e-tron GT, despite being the entry-level electric model, surprisingly dominated the RS6 GT in standing quarter-mile races, achieving a time of 10.8 seconds compared to the RS6 GT's 11.3 seconds. The R8 GT, while praised for its V10 sound and pickup, also fell short against the electric S e-tron GT, with times of 11.4 seconds in the standing drag and a slower 11.6 seconds in a subsequent run. The video concludes with a race between the top-tier RS e-tron GT Performance and the R8 GT. The RS e-tron GT Performance proved to be the quickest, completing the quarter-mile in an impressive 10.2 seconds, significantly faster than the R8 GT. The electric e-tron GT models clearly demonstrated superior acceleration, particularly off the line, showcasing the instant torque advantage over their internal combustion engine counterparts. Brake tests were also conducted, with the performance-oriented R8 GT and RS e-tron GT Performance showing better results due to their specialized braking systems.
