Audi RS e-tron GT v Porsche Taycan v Tesla Model S: DRAG RACE

.............................................................

How’s this for an absolutely EPIC electric car showdown? We’ve finally got our hands on the all-new Audi RS e-tron GT, and it’s going up against the Porsche Taycan Turbo and the Tesla Model S Performance!

So how do they compare on paper? Well first up we’ve got Mat in the Audi - their most powerful road-going car to date, no less! Powered by two electric motors, it can put down 646hp and 830Nm, while it also weighs in at 2,340kg. Alongside him we have Yianni in the Taycan Turbo, which also comes with two electric motors but the ability to put down slightly more power, so it can produce 687hp and 850Nm of torque. In terms of weight, it’s almost identical to the Audi, weighing in at 2,380kg.

And then finally we have the Tesla. It may cost a fair bit less than the Audi & Porsche (£70k vs £112k & £116k respectively), but it easily puts down the most power! With (you guessed it) two electric motors, it has the ability to produce 778hp and an epic 1,140Nm of torque! What’s more, it’s also the lightest car here, with a total weight of 2,316kg.

So, based on that, it’ll be an easy win for the Tesla, right?! There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

4:39 the fact that the editor put their made up noises at the launch is hilarious and funny.🤣🤣🤣

[SpeedyLio]

[DavidBalji]

I love how they compared all the cars on one slide so we can see the numbers better

It’s nice to see other companies driving competition. I hope the competition keeps getting better. In the end, consumers win.

[thewatchidiot]

the fact that you guys overlayed the mouth exhaust sounds during the outdoor launch control scene is just pure gold 4:38

[aamirsultan]

Felt like the slowest drag race ever until the times came up

[TheMadmax]

2:20 I think you should have this on every DRAG RACE video, but still love your video :)

[shaunmoeketsi]

Yianni has to be invited to all the drag races. He makes them fun.

[PranavNair]

I love the editor for putting their effects when they were about to race😂

[richardburke]

Matt - Would have been good to have seen what each car battery charge was left, after doing this Drag test? If All 3 cars started on a 100%

[AnotherRahul]

It is funny how all Yannie cares about is beating Matt in the drag race😂 he keeps his eyes on Matt only.

[keo]

I can’t even imagine Mat and Yianni sitting near each other in class 😂

[watchesandburgers]

Very cool race. So neat that the three cars are so even. Gotta love competition to make everything better.

[AnitaHanjaaab]

Lmfao @4:40 had me in tears. The “car sounds” from a distance was hilarious.
