QUICKEST AUDI RS VS QUICKEST DUCATI: DRAG RACE

EV Channels Review

This video pits the Audi RS e-tron GT Performance against the Ducati Panigale V4S in a series of drag and rolling races, culminating in a braking test. The Audi, despite its immense power and torque, is significantly heavier than the Ducati. In standing quarter-mile races, the Ducati consistently edged out the Audi, completing the run in 9.9 seconds compared to the Audi's 10.0 seconds. Rolling races proved to be a whitewash for the Ducati, with the bike easily outperforming the car, even when the Audi engaged its 'boost' button. The braking test showed a surprisingly close result, with the Ducati, especially with its ABS systems engaged, matching or even beating the Audi's stopping performance from high speeds. The reviewer highlights the Audi's impressive acceleration but ultimately concedes that the lighter, more agile Ducati is the quicker machine in most scenarios, particularly in standing starts and rolling acceleration.
