Audi RS6 v S6 Dragparison: Is the RS6 worth $60,000 extra? Drag race & sound tests!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 тра 2024
- Acceleration tests, exhaust sound, plus drag races. Paul Maric puts the 2021 Audi RS6 up against the 2021 Audi S6 to see which is louder and quicker. This is a series we call the CarExpert Dragparison! It's a comparison at the drag strip.
Let us know if you like it and what else you'd like to see. But, until then, watch the all-new Audi RS6 drag race against the Audi S6, see how well the carbon ceramic brakes on the RS6 hold up in our brake test and finally see which of these two cars sounds louder.
Performance figures:
2021 AUDI RS6:
0-100km/h (0-62mph): 3.6s
1/4 mile: 11.7s @ 193.3km/h

I appreciate the timestamps and lack of intro
Love your vids dude
😏😂😂😂😂
Never been a fan of the estate version of cars but man that RS6 is always looking 🔥🔥🔥🔥
It’s a beasty looking car 😁
I saw one on the weekend at the local shops, just like this one in red. It looks insane in person - the combo of low ride heigh & those massive rims give it huge presence!
They definitely look much better in person :-D
Ive said this before, and I’ll say it again - this is Carwow AUS. Take inspo from Mat Watson but embrace the aussiness!
😄
I’m sure Mat would be very proud, but we are yet to see a stick of truth!
Same clothes as Mat Watson too, we just need the stick of truth
This is better than Carwow
This is way better, carwow drivers are sleeping alot 😂
Our uk version of the s6 only comes with a 3.0 v6 diesel
With the artificial sounds too
Hassanain Khan damn right man!!
Fake exhaust tips too they are filled in!!
Joel Briscoe better off getting a 2015 rs6 then a 2020 s6 lol any day
Sorry for you
finally someone who put the RS6 into neutral and reved it properly!!!amazing job!everybody else seems to not figure it out by now:))
This seems like a quality channel, immediately subscribed!
Fantastic review, great side by side performance comparisons, this is what I'm here for 🔥🏆
Thanks mate!
Loving the format. Adding real world 'Comfort Mode' results makes it even better! Also, who doesn't love a mean estate.
Thanks mate!
Great comparison guys. Really stepping up the game.
Well done, Paul! Best Dragparison to date!
Thanks mate! Appreciate it.
That is what you call a car review! Awesome work!
OK- this is the best car comparison ever!... You actually launch like normal people without brake torquing to compare. You are the only one to do this... Automatically subscribed. Thank you for such an excellent video.
I am surprised by how good this video is, absolutely great comparison.
Paul is the Aussie version of Matt Watson.
PS. I'd take the S6 and put the $60k savings on something else. I'm guessing the S6 is a more relaxed, comfortable drive overall.
I agree, but I prefer his methods with the brake test, Matt Watson always does it based on how quick of a reaction the other cars have but at least Paul tracks both cars 100-0 times and distance
@Geoff: Thanks!
@Dayton: Thanks - yeah we use a VBox in both cars because it's almost impossible to nail the brakes at the exact same time in both cars.
@@TechHead03 Oh boi you are so wrong.
The RS6 is insanely good at alrounding everything. Especially if you got for the adaptive suspension.
Quality show, SUBSCRIBED!🔥
Great video glad you enjoy making these. I'm staying tuned for the a45s vs rs3
Thanks! We're still locked at home unfortunately, so we haven't been able to get the videos out that we would have liked to.
@@CarExpertAus understandable of course 👍🏼 cheers
13.0L/100km for a 600hp car, is quite nice
I'm definitely not complaining :-D
My 2013 series 7 bmw with 3.0 diesel was burning more, that is awesome
This is brilliant. I'm a sucker for vbox and dragy stats. Subscribed.
That RS6 is a beast! Excuse me while I go change my undies! Seriously if I could trade-in my family for the RS6 I would be down to the Audi dealer in a second.
😅
@@onehorsepower TT is nothing compared to an RS6 on the looks department
Would still be 3rd behind Merc and Bmw.
@@vikinnorway6725 not bad for an avant catching up neck to neck on those 2, not to mention going against 2 competition car. Audi actually downplayed it with the Rs6 on performance only releasing avant which should have always been
@@vikinnorway6725 the rs6 is much better than both. It weights 200kgs more with less power and more technology and comfort and better design and better price. It's just 0,1 sec slower.
Awesome review, keep the good work going!
Thanks a ton!
Rs6 still looks dope
Hell yes :-D
I subbed because you are very good at this. Well done
Awesome test
Thank you!
Great test!!! One of rhe best!
Excellent. Cheers from Brazil!
😁
Great review 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers!
Great video Paul. 🚗 💥 💨
Thank you!
Awesome vid. No BS. Subbed.
Very necessary test comparison 👌
Just subbed, really liking the comparison vids! I have an Audi TTS so would love there to be a comparison between that and the TT or TTRS
Thanks for the sub! We will see what we can line up :-D
Dreamy video. Can’t wait for the RS6 Performance!
You and me both!
I'd love an RS version of the S6 sedan
Ive always wondered why they only offer the RS6 in this ugly shape
@@mrcuboid it's not really ugly. Its just that, I would've love to have a sedan version of it
@@mrcuboid the shape is one of the best things about it
"i wish i could swear" hahahha I love this guy!!
Well done sir!!
I have a C8 2020 S6. The price difference for me just didn't seem justified. Now I have an APR Stage 1 tune and some mods, so I'm curious how I'd run against an RS6. I do love the wagon though. How we haven't readily adopted them in America is beyond me.
Gran vídeo!!!!👏👏👏
The weight saving in the brakes is impressive given the caliper size on the RS6 looks to be much bigger. Must be mostly in the disc.
Agreed! It's all in the composition - the standard brakes a steel. This is a carbon composite, which when used on all four wheels saves a stack of weight.
It's time to bring the Aussie version of Yianni into the drag race.
🤣
Great comparison. Looking forward to what Audi does with the RS6 Performance. Perhaps Urus power figures?
Me too - it'll be an absolute rocket ship!
You deserve millions of subs!!! Great 😊 channel!
I will say in a 2020 X3M.... I can run 3.3 0to60mph & do the 1/4 mile in 11.6 & still hop a curb if I need to. Can’t do that in a station wagon 😎😎😎😎😎
Makes me a little more satisfied with the performance of my cheap little MK7.5 Golf R. With just an ECU tune I’m getting 4.1 seconds 0-100 and it’s bloody fun to drive. Can’t afford one of these Audis, so it’ll have to do 😝
Very nice! They're very quick those things. They sound great too.
You must be the life of the party with a Golf
great review/dragparison -- anything that avoids being in an SUV gets my vote!! 🏎🏎🏎🍺
Thanks, and you're right!
Does it not start timing only when it detects motion so it would negate the stop/start?
Great dam video approved by me and the stigg
Cool review
Why not have all 3 though?
I wanna know what’s the difference between the a6 and s6 2022
Definitely Matt W of Australia. Excellent comparison once again 👍
Thanks 👍
How about doing a sports exhaust,intake and proper stage2 tune on that S6, and try again?
Good comparaison
our OZ matt watson love it
Thanks, @Mark. Me too, @Tom!
I think he's better than Mat imo
Andrew Denisyuk specifically if he starts to review supercars
he isnt even close lol!
$60K extra to gain one second in 0-100 and 1/4 mile times.
I’ll take the s6 and the $60K (and try to forget how much better the RS looks, feels and sounds).
Yea not worth 60k more different if it was 20k fuk that
@@Feral2k4 spend $2k on the S6 and it will go 0 to 100 in 3.55 seconds. It will save you $58k
I’m a simple man. I see a no nonsense car channel. I subscribe.
In germany we have the s6 with a 3.0 tdi with 350HP. It is interesting for people who drive many kilometers per year. But the rs6 Stars a beast; especially the design of this one is awesome.
I really enjoy the comparision of accelerations in different modes. Any chance you can get your hands on 992 Carrera S and/or 992 Turbo S?
Yes 😁
So is there avant s4 with 2.9TFSI engine?
I’ve seen the A6 55 tfsi of the same year hit 4.68 0-60 in good conditions.. I have the prestige 20’ with the factory 21” on p-zeroes. Shockingly fast for a what it is from a dig with launch control. Also seen the stock S6 hit sub 4.0 in good conditions as well.
do they aussie cars get the OPF? otto particle filter? someone know? I have a RS6 on order in US and can't wait to hear it without OPF .. unless that was already without it ;-)
Can u do a video on the gt63s
So Love, Revived My Love For the RS6
Love that RS wagon 👍🏽
Me too!
CarExpert I’m with you, wagons over an SUV every day of the week!
Great video again Paul. If you are the "Aussie Mat Watson" like suggested by other comments, we need to save thousands on new vehicles like he promotes! Or tens of thousands so we can buy an RS6! 🤣
Ha ha, thanks.
nope not even close.
Nice Audis. Now I'll go and choose an Stelvio QV :)
Please do the S4 and RS4!!
This dude is good, first time i’ve seen him
Thats sick how you can override the limiter by switching to N. Noone else caught that good job!
It's a bit pointless though! I just wish it would rev at idle.
You can also get an early generation S4 3.0T supercharged for a fraction of the price, and with some minor bolt on parts, you will also see 11 seconds quarter mile.😆
Could you do a review of the Audi RSQ3 thanks
We will try and get our hands on one.
Do the golf r plz
So Paul, How does the noise of the S6 and RS6 compare to the last Aussie favourite, the VF2 Commodore SSV Redine?
Quieter with a deeper growl
At idle definitely quieter! Once moving though the RS6 makes a fair racket!
Pray this is the beginning of the downfall of SUVs, Wagons are just so much better!
🙏
Umm Paul you can swear! We’re all grown ups!🤪🤣 I couldn’t get over how much the RS6 bonnet looked like my Skoda Superb 206 wagon’s bonnet...& the more red I drank the more it looked the same!🍷🍷🍷🍷😂 I’d still love that RS6 in my garage. Pity I’ve sold my kids kidneys 3 times already.😆
Ha ha, very funny comment!
Love it, Paul. Also, why can’t you swear...? Haha
Some people don't like it :-D
Mariću, imaš li verziju/TEST, na Hrvatkom jeziku?
Try holding the ESC button for 3-5 seconds to fully switch off the stability control and get a better launch control!
It wouldn't make a difference. In the ESR mode traction control is disabled and stability control only intervenes when the steering opposes the direction of the car.
Thank you for converting kwh to horse power.
No problems - thanks for watching!
I couldn't watch the video cus you keep hitting the cars omg :)
Great video! Not worth the extra 60k in my humble opinion. RS6 is crazy quick, but 60 thousand is a LOT
Great comparison! Thx Paul. Both look great in the red colour. The S6 is more of a 'sleeper', with the difference in the real world between them is negligible (unless you're at the drag strip every weekend). One question, how is the ride comfort difference between the two? I looked at an RS4, but way too hard on Sydney roads (even in "Comfort" mode). I have a C7 S6 with the 4.0L TTV8. Toying whether it's worth the "upgrade" from my S6 to a current gen S6/S7. RS6 way out of my price range.
How did you go? Still have the V8 S6 or did you upgrade to the new S6? I just bought the new S6 upgrading from the A6 Biturbo TDI, which I still love. great Torque and great economy.
@michael9678727 I ended up with one of my dream cars; a 2015 Audi S8. Same 4.0T engine as in the RS6, just detuned (because nothing's allowed to beat an RS6!). Beautiful car. A big beast though. The S6 is little more fun to drive in the bends & in the city, but in a straight line on a motorway or in the country, the S8 is phenomenal!!
@@stephenhunt6673 congratulations the S8 is beautiful and insanely quick!
Pozdrav sa Balkana!
Loved it. I wish i can afford it...RS6. Beast.
Me too!
Australia now has euro style plates?
About 10 years now 😁
@@Tommmmmmmmmmmm Yeah, wider with the blue strip on the left, like we have in Europe
They’re an option. We have about 50 different styles in the state where these cars are registered, including Euro and JDM.
Nice cars, but these times are slow. The S6 doesn't stand a chance against against an S5, especially with a 40 minute tune? The RS6 times are within striking distance of any 2011-2018 3.0T with a dual pulley setup?
Please consider getting a Dragy so we can see the DA, temp and altitude, because that can affect times a lot.
That rs6 looks 🔥
So damn good!
EU RS6: 600 PS
EU S6: 350 PS 3.0 TDI BiTurbo.
EU S6 C6: 435 HP 5.2 V10 FSI
EU S6 C7: 450 HP 4.0 V8 TFSI
EU S6 C8: 350 HP 3.0 V6 TDI
...
EU S6 C9: 330 HP 2.0 R4 TSI
EU S6 C10: 300 HP 1.0 R3 HYBRID
EU S6 C11 E: 0 real HP electric trash😭
No GPF? They both sound great, we only get the diesel here in the UK. Even the RS6 here in the uk sounds muted
Try the Abt version once....
E63s amg with 5 years older is the dad!!🤝
I wish they made a sedan version of the RS6, the front end of that combined with the rear of the S6 would be awesome. Not that I could afford one...
Doesn’t Australian Audi get the dynamic indicators?
Yes, we do! If you're talking about the section with brake testing, the dynamic indicators don't activate when the emergency stop signal is active.
Please do several runs for most accurate times. Since everyone is comparing this to Car Wow: Mat's time with the RS6 is 11.3 sec for 1/4mile.
Not today...ua-cam.com/video/RjdXVyENkRA/v-deo.html
That S6 has the RS4 engine by the looks of it. I would have thought it was quicker! Love that RS6....
The most beautiful SW in the world imo.
60k is alot of money though.
Agreed!
So moral of the story is that if you can't afford an RS6, get a used low-miles previous generation (C7) S6 with the 4L V8TT, throw some RS6 turbos on it with a tune, and have yourself RS6-like straight-line performance and exhaust notes for way less than a brand new S6 with the overly-complicated V6+electric supercharger.
True!
Oh please, an M5 comp would destroy it
Now i want a RSQ8
He just enjoys me so much
Well... I'd love to see the same comparison with a 2016-2018 s6 model.... 2019 and newer s6 they took the balls off and made it more luxury
You see so many Audis in grey tones that seeing one in red is absolutely delicious.
In Europe, s6,s7 have 347bhp tdi with fake plastic tailpipes 😖
The petrol is so much better 😁
Its because you are a bunch of tree huggers there in Europe
@@catchawakeup6411 No it's because our stupid politicians and governement are a bunch of green greedy tree huggers!! 😠😭
The reader will start measuring when the car moves not when u bang the throttle so when the stop start is on and u bang the throttle it starts then goes if u want to test it from the off stop start stop watch it from the second u bang the throttle
I’m highly disappointed in the S6 my 2012 A6 3.0t runs a 4.95-5.2 second 0-60 just goes to show superchargers are the best for red light racing.
