- We are back at the Zell am See frozen lake in Austria for another rad day of driving race cars. I get the pleasure of shredding the Dakar Stage Winning Audi RS Q e-tron race car, on ice… I love my job! Mattias Ekström, the driver who piloted Audi race car to the Dakar Stage win, is riding shotgun with me for a quick crash course on getting up to speed in a very new and very complex electric race car. Fun times ahead!

Audi taking this partnership serious asf and I like that....
I would to he has bounced around from one factory to another one
@@shaunreed8115 did you have a stroke?
@@shaunreed8115 yes. Block nailed this one.
Yeah, not anymore DamnIt
This vehicle sounds and looks like it performs so closely to my hobby grade RC cars..
yeah 4wd brushless
🤣
Eks is one of *those* drivers absolute living legend
What a adorable person is Mr. Ekstrom! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
👏
I didn't comment in the previous vid, but it is truly AWESOME and wonderful that Audi is willing to bring out the old historical cars for these kinds of displays... that takes a lot of pride in the machines and a great willingness to take the risks to do so! Cheers from BC Canada!
the audi/block relationship is amazing.. they are das hoonigans from another mother... "respectfully drive" this monster from our finest rally era to here hoon the hell out of this new gigantic RC truck.. and after watching the other videos, e tron might be the car for us with gas going towards 10$ a gallon..
There is not enough infrastructure for electric vehicle charging nor is the battery technology up to where it needs to be yet. The biggest problem with electric vehicles is that is takes way too much expenditure of energy to charge them. The average electric vehicle requires 30 kilowatt-hours to travel 100 miles - the same amount of electricity an average American home uses each day to run appliances, computers, lights and heating and air conditioning.
Then, there is the problem of what is generating the electricity to charge the vehicles. They use whatever is powering the grid, and since they use so much electricity to run, they are actually worse for the environment and more expensive to run than gas and diesel vehicles.
@@Easy_Skanking i agree with you. with the expetion of one thing.
my electric bill is 80 a month.
You are saying,. 80 bucks a month is more expensive than eight gallons of gas?
i get what you are getting at, just think you are confused a bit?
i i owned a vehicle. it would probably take me six months to drive 100 miles.
maybe once a month to go into town (six miles round trip)
I own an Audi e-tron 2022, and I highly recommend it. Amazing car. Great comfort, super high build quality. I live in Norway though, so charging infrastructure is great and cost of electricity is very cheap.
Id say "Die Hoonigans" (=The Hoonigans), because "Das Hoonigans" sounds more like "That Hoonigans".
@@supahmac Audi ETron 2022 still better than Audi LMP1.
“I will Hoon anything, anywhere, anytime”…
Ken Block 2022
KB Forever.
Ken: enters vehicle
Ken after 1 second: *full throttle sideways*
5:49 I love the contrast between driving incredible machines like this with so much skill, to where the driver is reduced to walking like 93 year old man afraid of falling.
It's like a life-size RC car
Not really. Rc stands for remote control. This is not, and there are electric as well as gas powered rc cars. No relevance there.
@@tyltyl1070 actually RC stands for research chemical and that's what you must be smoking to think that I actually give a s*** about your opinion lol!
@@tyltyl1070 Bet you're fun at parties.
But seriously chill out, it's a really common FIGURE OF SPEECH. Bit of a misnomer yes, but most figures of speech are.
@@tyltyl1070 And thus appears the troll…

@@adamdombrowski1949 Block's new RC car looks epic.
mattias seems like such a fun and gracious host. I really wanna see him in the hoonitron!
Did you hear that! 8,000KMs in 13 days. I absolutely LOVE Dakar! I really wish it got better coverage in the US. The race puts all other forms of racing to shame.
I think he misspoke... “The route will consist of around 4,000 km (2,500 mi) of special stages and 2,500 km (1,600 mi) - 3,000 km (1,900 mi) of liaisons.” Liaisons aren’t timed and are simply transfer stages, although they are still hard miles.
@@jonkiwi 8,404km total, and 4,129km of special stages (liasions 4,275km).
Thats easy, did 6000km in 5 days in 2015 trough russia though.
"Hah, you dont think thats cool?" Ken, "i think thats very cool". Hilarious, Ken chomping at the bit ready to shred that machine.
I enjoy Mathias' enthusiasm. Loved watching him come in and race World RX.
Thats a purebred hoon, in its natural environment. 10/10 love this.
It's like life size "RC Car" 🚗🚗😂 that rips and you can drive!!💯🤘🤘 gotta love it!!💯👍
Id definitely want some heavy duty hearing protection for a ride in this car, it’s those super high pitched squeals that do the most damage
As someone who *already* has a vulnerability to high-frequency sound, I agree.
Hell yeah, I would love to see Ken take it to a rally!!
I feel that Ken still has to peak. I really hope he in the future wipe the floor with the drivers in wrc. To me he is the ultimate all round driver out there right now.
Crazy that he’s in his 50s
He already peaked and he's not very good. You watch too much UA-cam.
@@stuwest5862 I’m sure you could do much better
@@stuwest5862 he's definitely the most entertaining out of all the drivers in wrc and makes the best content. Without him, I bet you a lot of Americans wouldn't even really care for wrc or gymkhana
@@badcornflakes6374 I agree.
Mattias is Awesome!!
😂😂 love Ken's humility on the Rally invite
Ken doesn't even feel it out just slides it right away😂
Great, thanks to share with us!
Absolutely impressive!! Awesome video !! Safe Travels!!
Great combo these two!
Legendary content!
Big thanks from Québec Canada 🇨🇦
That is a fun truck. Lots of crazy sounds.
Sounds like an RC car!
Super Video👏
That's a beautiful machine
I love how Mattias is so fun and excited and Ken Block is like Nervous/serious lol
Could you imagine if ken was the tester for the DMV 😂 "pull up here and roast them"
That is sick!!!
looks cool. very futuristic
Damn I miss Ken. He saw the vision. Audi has just won Dakar their third year out. Amazing result. Wish Ken would have gotten a Dakar drive one day.
Fun to see a RedBull driver seating next to a Monster drink driver in same car
So awesome
It has a built-in jack I love it
@ around 3:40 in 😂🤣 Ken's like COME ONNNNN ALREADY! I wanna drive this, like now!
What a great partnership.
Nos encantó el Audi RS eléctrico condusido por Ken block un genio 💝💓🇺🇾
Send it!!!!!! 🔥🔥
Love it, Ken say well let's quit talking ha ha, and let's drive, I think Ken just wants to have fun , even at 30 miles an hour or 160 miles an hour, rally will never be the same , I will follow Travis now but all these videos of Ken and Alex are priceless too me, and I was wandering what will Alex do now
When Ken said “it’s almost too easy” I felt that in my soul. My only fear of electric is that it will take some of the fun/challenge away
Oh it definitely will
Just the lack of sequential box shift sounds sucks. It kinda just sounds like it, without shifting...
sick!
LITERALLY SOUNDS LIKE A RC CAR
Sounds like a big rc car .😎
that’s the future😁
RIP KEN😢😢😢😢😢
Ken looks good !
I hope you got to do some skiing while there. I love that area.
I'm really impressed that the same car that competed in a desert at god-knows-temperature and later use it on ice with same configuration but 50-60°C (or more) difference in ambient temp. Nice, love that doesn't just look, but actually is resilient and performs really well ..
- That is my magic button :DD Just fell out of my chair laughing :DD
Epic 🤘😎
it looks like our small RC cars back in the days, but bigger. Scale 1:1
funny to see the guys hardly walking on the slippy ice, after going crazy
The guy trying to tell Ken about understeer. Haha. Funny. Ken's like , explain how to turn it on.
Red Bull and Monster locking horns 🤣🤣🤣
Mattias must have watched some gymkhana vids to come up with that challenge haha!
Into the future!
Looks and sounds like driving my rc car
3:34… The second that Ken, for the FIRST TIME EVER, gave up the driver seat with zero fight…
MIND BLOWN!!!
Looks and sound alike RC car 😀
Lets gooo ken
Ken driftking😍🤩
8000km in 13 days and then another full Dakar after that?!
I think i just developed a Tinnitus thinking about that. 😧
Hmm nice Car!
Sounds like the Jetsons flying car
It's like a giant RC car
What an absolute shame that this did not happen RIP 43
red bull and monster in the same carbon fiber cokpit waht is next hahahahaha love this :)
HA sounds just like my RC cars. What a cool vehicle!
not going to lie but it is as though honey i shrunk the kids comeback and feels...they being tiny sitting in a RC car!~ oh my what a time and how the future is going to be
The performance on the electric cars is phenomenal but it's just not the same without hearing the engine that humming whining of the electric just isn't the same
Ken needs one of these buggies for himself for Gymkhana and for the first ‘ICEKHANA’!!!!
ICEKHANA.... I like it.
Its like our RC Cars are big enough to drive now.
@ken block @audi hoonigan/audi logo with the rings behind/embracing the HOON in Hoonigan??? just a thought that would be super iconic...
i would be interestet in the aero of this thing. why are there the big channels behind the front wheels?
ePower!!!
Haha he was awesome
the good old Monster/Red Bull team-up
Great
Ultra firkin Rad!
I bet those batteries are hating that weather right now!!!
Audi needs to get this body licensed with Traxxas! I could see this body on a UDR.
There's a high pitch frequency that these cars make that I cant stand.
And when will this be available in 1/10 scale?!
It looks and sounds like my RC cars.
This car sounds just like a giant RC car
It sound just like a giant remote control car😄
Sounds a lot like a remote control car
Lets see Mattias in hoonies
I don't like how it sounds but everything else I like
whats the beat used for the beaty shots
You just hop in creep for a second then stomp it. I guess that's how the pros do it. 👍👍😀😀
Very cool , although it does not sound like an asphalt eating monster don’t be fooled it is 😈 thanks for the video
Lol sounds like a full-size R/C car
I am a great fan from India🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
What is the tire pressure level?
Cool to meet ya Mattias
Amazing ride Audi
With ya Ken when you said mindbogglingly technology
So you're out there in ice snow n slush
How's the heater work

@@bakedstreetyt
No
Does it look like it
The dispensary
Dispensed on a half baked shell
Can you tell
I can...
Sometimes life dispenses a poem n
We don't kow'm
This isn't one of those
Just a half baked clown on a shell
Can you tell
