It’s time for an Audi RS6 vs RS7 show down!!
Now, it’ll come as no surprise to you that these cars are very similar. Starting with the Audi RS6, it’s powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 which will produce 600hp and 800Nm. When it comes to the RS7… Well, it’s also powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 which can produce 600hp & 800Nm! They’ve both also got 8-speed automatic gearboxes, launch control and Quattro all-wheel drive.
So, they’re literally identical, apart from one stat - the weight! Whereas the RS7 weighs 2,065kg, the RS6 weighs slightly more at 2,075kg.
Clearly it’s all down to reaction times, so does Mat have what it takes? You’ll have to keep watching to find out!

Huge Audi fan and I’d take the RS 7 over the RS 6, just love the look of the 7 over the 6.
same
@Yule Bernard Calma the 7 has the sport/hatchback trunk though, the whole back opens and you have similar cargo room as an avant. the 7 is also slightly roomier on the inside than the 6.
@Jeff Wallin like your mum?
@Yule Bernard Calma sure, but you said "way more practical". yes the wagon has an edge on those things, but i wouldn't call that "way more". not like a coupe vs wagon comparison here.
Same
The guy who made rev limiters must be that guy who used to remind the teacher for the homework
Looool
Stupid “regulations”.
I really do love Audi but these soft limiters are just crap! Please get rid of them Audi...
@@ChrisJ972 same mate, imagine having rs7 with 600hp and not being able to rev it normally, i love audi but they are ruining their cars with rev limiters, but not only audi, majority of cars nowadays have rev limiters even some super cars like the porsche 911
In Clio V 1,3Tce 130 with EDC they put an soft limiter too but only on RS Line lol
I bet when Matt goes out with his girlfriend he just talks about Audis & their soft limiters.
Hahahahahaha
That is soo truu
and then when they make love she talks about his soft limiter

@@OJGGaming Yup raining inside the car :D
@@OJGGaming Side windows don't have wipers and water molecules stick on the glass, if you have driven a car in rainy conditions you would know that you have to open window to remove water on side windows to improve visibility. Mat and the guy in RS7 didn't open windows to remove water. At the beginning of the video of the video where they do sound checks on Mat's car you can't see through his window due to water.

Well. The only way to catch early “braker” in your brake test is to put a camera just before the line. Obviously the one that lights up first (brake light) brakes early.
Brilliant
Mat calls the police: Hi this is Mat from carwow. The police: So what exactly happened? Mat:
🤔
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Funniest comment I have ever read
2:39 almost a wheelie with a RS7 😂
2:41 that's a sweet lift kit on the RS7 :o
Damn that RS7 front lifted so much it looked like it was about to take off like a plane
The rs7's back is so good looking.
Yh overall a good looking car too
Okay Mat, if you're not gonna put the C8 RS6 against the C7.5, I'll drive from Qatar to UK with my own and give you a race. 😜

oh my god I never even noticed I will never look at Matt the same from now on thankyou random stranger

*Here is why the RS6 kicked down so slowly:* When you look at the tachometer you can see that 0.5 seconds before he kicked down the car went into 7th gear. And torque converters arent the best at changing up and then down so fast.
Torque converter doesnt change gears, valve body controls gears
Came to say that, that's why it got confused. Should've redone the race, they would've been dead even.
Up und down, naturlich.
Neither are DCTs, although AMTs may have an advantage here
@@satsumagt5284 i dont think there is any transmission that can upshift then downshift in a second, and you are right AMT will upshit then downshift faster than an DCT
Goes to show how good your secondary driver and Matt work together. They can launch at practically the same time now.
You need a cameraman filming the rear of the cars as they pass the line to show when each car brakes! Love your videos as always tho Matt!
Hey Matt I'm gonna need my Nokia back when you're done using it to film your cockpit
It was probably very dark so they either used shutter speed to expose or they created all that noise during editing
Yeah I selected 2160 for my screen resolution and quickly realised it was wasted on this video 🥴
Please introduce us to the faceless drag racer, he’s quite a character on the radio 😜
Definitely faceless, sat alone with a nappy over his head 🙄 😄
Took the words straight out of my mouth
He's called the faceless
Thought it was Joe Achilles
@@Sttuey its the stig
"its neck and neck" well it is basically the same car lol
Your RS6 configuration (black pack, brown interior, Sonoma green) is my ideal - so I definitely prefer it. Good choice Matt
I’d personally choose the rs7 I mean come on it has a pop up wing!
I dont like how the back half looks from the side
Same, it´s probably the best looking Audi right now, that fastback design is so stylish!
The reason for popup wings is bad engineering imo
@@reinaldo8787 what?

Thank u for the drag race. Can we now have the previous generation of the two cars (the C7s)
3:51 Matt's face when he sees RS7 pulling away...lol
Audi has two designers: One who created the front And one who created the back
Bmw has, the front of the M4/M3 are ugly, but the back is alright...
The 2 designers are both good, because both the front and back are gorgeous
Stfu bwm fanboy
holy audi snowflakes meeting here? its just a joke lmao
@@bobruh6883 ikr
When you do the car spec comparison, wish you would put it side by side so it’s much easier to compare
When the Wing on RS7 pops up things change xDD !
6:08 this part has me dead 😂
Mat in December; "Every gear change feels like an orgasm, aaah!" Then he roasts someone for going early? Come on Mat lol
Maybe he came too early
Waiting for Mat vs Yanni running race, bicycle race, soundcheck. Make this happen
Or bmw isetta vs peel trident vs peel p50 🤔
I agree,when carwow do running race🤔
Hi Matt, great video thanks. Just a thought, how about they make you a cover for the whole quater mile that way it will always be dry😅🤣
RS6 has the best colour combination for sure!!! It’s just so much brighter inside. I do love the grey on the rs7- just not to keen on the interior colours!
Love how the RS7 looks, that colour combo really compliments the car
it really doesn't
Mat’s face cam looking like something from 1984 👌🏽😂
Hi Matt, would it be possible to have a drag race between a Seat Leon Cupra 290ps dsg and a VW Golf R MK 7.5 dsg I know the Golf R would be quicker from a standstill because of four wheel drive but the Leon might be slightly quicker mid range acceleration because it’s a little bit lighter. Many Thanks Gary.
What happened whit the quality of your inside cams? I think in other past videos you had more quality image 🤔
The drag race everyone’s wanted
And in the perfect weather
No Joking 😆 of course on of the best drag races
My name is also Josh
no not really... nearly the same car. Same engine, same launch control, same 4 wheel drive system...
@@leonhennes3791 it’s the drag race every one wants because it’s a test to see if your extra money gives you better performance
Video summary: RS6 = RS7 but with a different body style.
RS6 = RS7 but more practical, less ostentatious (less tickets) and imo better looking. And cheaper too, its a no brainer for me.
RS7 = better looking RS6
@@FriendlyNeighbourhoodSpidey RS8 = better looking RS7
Proper summary : if matt was in the rs7 for the first race he would've been rerun so he could launch properly and win it, so in summary the rs7 won it all
@@AndreiAndrei-rt4po wait is there an RS version of the S8 in europe?
Great video!
Hey Mat.. I would recommend you to have the brake test on a count of 3 rather than with a line. That'd be great for your @BrakeTestability.

@@hyperpotion5416 I live an area of east Germany full of wealthy people, but even outside of here the RS6 and RS7 are normal cars you see often in the road. Aside from that "normal cars" is not a clear definition, for a billionaire, a 1.000.000€ supercar could be considered normal. For others some cheap cars from the 80s are normal.

Does the RS7 have winter tires on those winter rims? Or was it just spec’d with the base rims which double as winter rims if you choose the upgraded wheels?

I have a suggestion: for greater reliability, change cars in each test. In order to at least slightly reduce the difference in the individual factor
U should film from above with a drone when you guys do the brake test.

Just buy used cars. That's much more car for the money you spend plus you can research your preferred model beforehand and find out which one would be the least trouble.
Don’t feel left out. Buy one, have it stored , when you pop over to London to stay at Claridges, you can drive it then 👌😄

I can’t believe how much rear suspension squat there is with both of these. The nose of (especially) the RS7 really rises to the occasion when the hard acceleration starts.

Have been watching mat doing car reviews since his carbuyer days, always enjoyed all his reviews, which continued with carwow !! Sad to say though in recent times videos have becoming too samey and boring, how many drag races can one watch and still be interested?? Hope there are fewer drag races (or is it all about KZhead ads now) in future
Do an all generation RS6 race. Every car since the first C5 RS6 till the latest C8. The 1/4 won't be that interesting but the rolling race i bet will hand us some surprises.
The race we never wanted but are loving 💯
Apart from the drag race, we must appreciate the weather in the UK, i mean look at that sunset 🌅
