Which is faster - an Audi R8, or an all-electric Audi Dakar rally car? Well, we’re about to find out! But first, let’s look at the stats…
Starting with the rally car, it's got a carbon fibre body, along with two motors taken from a Formula e car! So it must be pretty powerful, right? Well, these cars have a limited power output, so it normally only produces 340hp! However, with the flick of a switch we’re able to increase the power output, so once we’re racing it’ll put down 680hp!!
It's also equipped with a small motor at the back to help regen power into the battery, so as a result, its weight is pretty similar to the e-tron GT - around 2,200kg.
It’s a good thing the rally car can increase its power output, as we know the R8 is equipped with something pretty special… a glorious 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V10! Powering all four wheels, the V10 can put down 620hp and 580Nm. It’s also a whole lot lighter than the rally car, weighing in at 1,560kg.
So, will it be an easy win for the rally car? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

That R8 looks so damn good....you can't argue with that
R8 sounded far better than Formula E sounds.
It is ironman's car what do you expect
Yess🥰
That was awesome. I always loved the crazy wacky machines they build for the Dakar rally. It’s literally like wacky races without the cheating.
I bet they should do Nissan Pickup vs Koenigsegg next.
Yeah, without the cheating! "(Presses a button to double horsepower) 😄
“At the moment it feels good at least” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Awww. Wacky Races! You took me back to my childhood! I loved the laughing dog. Forgot its English name. I watched it in Spanish. 😄

Man that Rs Q e-tron sounds like a balistic rocket, looks like one also. Awesome drag race guys. Good to see Mat race in the dakar car this time round.
En el interior tiene ke ser una locura el ruido
Sounds like a broken Dyson, what a god awful noise to listen to while you drive a brickhouse
@@bluemutt9964a broken Dyson beat a r8
The noise is absolutely unbearable and I'm not on that car! WOW! Thank you for sharing Mat, very interesting to see that monster in action.
Absolute. Maybe Nissan Pickup vs TVR GRIFFITH?
i was sad when the video ended and the noise stopped.
It's just a Swedish accent. You don't have to be rude.
I think when you're racing it you don't care about the noise you just enjoy the rush :)
That RS Q e-tron sounds like a fighter jet! Insane!
RS Q ETron sounded like Formula E Gen 3 car.
@@purwantiallan5089
More like a jet.
@@purwantiallan5089 it actually sounds like 2 gen3 cars mated to a dtm car
@@skylined5534 Sounds just like an ice racecar just without the engine noise. That whining noise comes from the gearbox
Its the straight cut gears
The most German conversation I've ever heard lmao
Matt "yeah but you could cheat..."
"I would like but I cannot" 😂
These races are won or lost by how much Matt can get away with jumping the start.
Was scrolling comments and surprised nobody mentioned hes always shooting the gun, every race.
@@scootermcgavin6733
I always manage to beat my other half in the sack race by prematurely shooting my gun.
"YOU'RE WINNER!"
@@scootermcgavin6733 thats why his gf hasnt married him yet
Cope
@@scootermcgavin6733 i second your comment
The combination of the DTM engine and the V10 sounds so good!
Remember that dtm engine beat bmw for longer time than one year 😂😂 Audi s5 dtm wasn't a joke
@@lonewolf1300 yep.
620hp and 580Nm of torque from a naturally-aspirated engine in the Audi R8 is absolutely insane!
9:12 nah bro it’s turbocharged
@@shfla7293 huh

“I’m basically Lewis Hamilton but with freckles” 😂
He is tho
Saying it to a RedBull sponsored co pilot too 😂😂
Luis Hamilton but in an Audi not a Mercedes 😂
I watched this on headphones, and i can say that i never ever want to be in a car that sounds like that 😱
Mat is working so hard to keep us entertained using Carwow videos! Thank you so much Mat for that!
Hardly...
What a suck up. You think he’s doing this for you? He’s doing it for the ££ 😂
Maybe CarWow should get the credits

These are the drag races we love!
I don't like too
Ehh
I don’t, I don’t like electric cars.. you already know why…..
No
@@XoticEditz. even though its underrated.
Love the colour of the r8, never seen one in red
We’re used to seeing these vehicles in context, it’s so cool to see them on a normal road next to a “normal” (super) car like the r8, and really get a sense of how insane, everything about them is, the looks, the sound, the performance, everything
Reporter: how many repeats you need to proof you're the winner?
Matt:yes
I love the sound of the R8 and the Huracan so classic!
That’s the iconic V10, the same in the Lamborghini huracan
@@deavinarulappu1099 yup!
@@deavinarulappu1099 yep. Miura P400 also equipped with V10.
@@XoticEditz. Lambo Miura also equipped with V10.
That Audi RS Q e-tron is one of the most coolest looking rally car I've ever seen! Shows us how clever German Audi engineers are!
then, I must be smarter than German engineers as I thought that's how PHEVs should be engineered at least ten years ago!
Eh, it’s something that I’ve been saying they should implement into cars years ago, using an ICE engine essentially just as a generator for the electric motors. But in reality this idea has been used for decades in locomotives and off road haul trucks. All diesel electric locomotives have been this way since the 1950s-60s
Still, even if Audi didn’t really come up with any new ideas here, it still does look pretty damn cool lol
@@dragon81heart this one is underrated.
Germans and clever, hahahha keep dreaming you little fanboy
@Vux why? Easy, range. That’s just one of the many benefits
Other benefits to that this type of design is that there are absolutely zero concerns of battery overheating, maximum power output, battery degradation, or extremely long charging times.
Pretty much eliminates every single one of the drawbacks and downside that affects every single EV, all while retaining pretty much all of the benefits that ICE vehicles have to offer.
That was amazing! This is now my favorite video of all your videos. Additionally, I like that helmet more than the previous ones.
The Dakar racer sounds like you’re’ inside a child’s RC car 😂
I think that cool Audi engineer gave his Audi R8 to this insane drag race!
He said "im basically lewis hamilton" right next to a driver wearing a redbull shirt 😅
Or Sebastian Vettel 2009.
I was laughing at this 😂😂
Love your drag races Matt
Great drag race Mat!
I like how relaxed and calm the R8 driver is
unlike some noisy lambo dude XD
So happy to see Emil with the insane Audi RS Q e-tron after a long time!
Pretty sure it's not "his".
@@Mister_5150 I'm sorry! Thank you!
Insanely ugly
This was a well done video, the co-driver in the video was very cool he’s seems very calm for a rally driver lol
Love the growth of this channel 🙌
I never expected Mat to drive that RS Q e-tron... You such a great driver!!!
The r8 quarter mile time has gone down from 10.7 to the 11 seconds
Because they made it RWD
@@Siamese_cat_ That's the awd version!
@@Mostdiscreet oh my bad, so it is!
That was kinda disappointing tbh. From 10.7 to 11.3, something seriously wrong with that r8 in this video
Awesome race, tks for sharing this 👍
awesome video matt
The noise that Dakar car makes - it’s what I expected electric cars to sound like when I was a kid 😊
Yea shite 🤣
@@jondrizzle4554 Exactly. Like fucking RC cars from my childhood, only a 100 times louder...
@@bajszosjozsef4850 i miss v8 and v12 engines
@@bajszosjozsef4850 electric vehicles suck.... I really don't care how fast they are
@@jondrizzle4554 I say the same thing lol
Absolutely entertaining stuff. 👌
This is the most thrilled I have ever been watching a car wow drag race. maybe its that sound , but i felt soo engaged
Yep. Do also about NSX Type R vs this Audi RS Etron GT.
It's absolutely the sound. I watched in headphones and felt like I was strapped to the roof 😂
That's the wackiest and some of the most insane I have ever seen! That electric gear-whine makes an awesome sound!
The Audi RS Q etron Dakar SUV is a sure a heck of a thing , it has so much disadvantage like power to weight ratio , no summer tyres , bad aerodynamics and drag coefficiency and a speed limiter, and still it beat a modern more power efficient supercar , it would be a beast if Audi made it road legal
Jesus... imagine that chassis but with an SUV or X6 type body over it for the road?!
A drag race is not the only criteria for being a beast
Look at how its steering is how difficult to control it.
the co driver is a boss!!
he was very chill and helpful
the sound of the r8 flyby is just f****** insane
Great video guys
This one was crazy guys, props for getting Audi to allow this
Wow, dude Matt I thought you did extremely well behind the wheel there. That thing looked SCARY to be going that fast in. That was nuts.
Epic race guys...the music at the end of the brake test was hilarious!! lol
Thank you Audi and Carwow I enjoy the Audi Videos 🔥🔥👍🏿
As an Alaskan* who appreciates the ultimate V10 engineering, and Group B rallying (at it's finest), I can absolutely confirm this is my favorite Carwow video ever made.
~ Thank you Carwow for making my favorite comparison ever.
I must admit, the philosophy and design of this setup would be awesome on the next RS4/RS6. Paired with the 3.0t and 4.0t respectively. It would be a good way to give them crazy power.
nah, that dtm engine is purely for recharging. they would eliminate that engine in a heartbeat if there is a slight chance one battery can last an entire leg. but imagine a toned down version of this mgu mated to transmission so its power can stack on the v6 or v8
What a drag race!!! Congratulations!!!
Fantastic episode.
Mat is such a crazy awesome car reviewer. But you know what's also crazy insane? The performance of that R8, man.
This was incredible to watch. So cool! I really love Audi cars!
When you have no taste...
@@sylvaind.6786 why he have no taste? Because he likes something you not? Pathetic.
@@sylvaind.6786 When you don't accept others opinions 🤦

When you sound nearly like you've been named after a brand of light bulb and like your own comments.
The way the RS Q e-tron pitched under braking 😂
Holy crap Matt! Nice video!!!
That audi r8 sounded good i always loved cars with V10s 😍
Man, the R8 sounds really good!!
This was a really entertaining vid Matt! Some bits were proper funny. Maybe its cos I'm a little high. good stuff 😅😅
Mat is the man, I love his personality, from someone who has social issues and can't mesh with people very well, I'm very jealous but happy for him. He's living the dream! Keep the good content coming Carwow and give that man a raise. I'm an American and I like him more than every other car show host.
I remember that time the audi r8 1/4M was 10.5 at the last videos it’s every time above the 11
Still waiting to see my 320i go against my neighbour’s C200. Please Matt
5:34 that sound of the v10
It's awsome how the 2.0 and 5.2 harmonize so well, during the launch phase 🤩.... Just like two singers!
Mat thank you so much for this insane video!
What a race & the Audi R8 still looks fantastic 👏
But against Ford GT40, R8 has no chance.
Oooh dakar version Audi sound electrically rocketing🚀!! Awesome video!! Keep them coming👌
Brilliant race🔥
Hey Matt love the videos, Id love to suggest doing a proper circuit in addition to the rolling starts,brake tests....a short one atleast to really set the benchmark on how good a car is overall 😀
Always push on the limits with carwow
this car is so hard to control , its ground clearance is unbelievable , at that speed it might flip over 🤣
Sounds like an RC car crossed with a dyson hoover 😂
So happy to see Mat driving the RS Q e-tron rally car!
This was a cool ass race!! ❤️❤️❤️
Audi R8: Vroom vroom
Audi RS Q e-tron: *cry baby alien sound intensifies*
That was awesome, really enjoyed it!
The R8 looks absolutely stunning at high speed.
Especially at 330kph.
@@purwantiallan5089 right on!
Looks exactly the same as when it’s at low speed
@@jacobb2805
There's always one.
@@jacobb2805 it moves with grace
I've never seen Matt so scared, that thing must be a beast to drive.
Excellent video
That was like watching Car Wow whilst sat on the washing machine on spin cycle.
Thanks Mat. I hope the helmet protected your ears. Had a blast watching it dsepite the weird noise.
WOW the RS Q e-tron sounds like a spaceship 🚀! 🤣😃 Great Race ! 😃
What a hell that race 1 vs. 1 but still enjoying and fun to all! Goodluck!
Super enjoyed this drag race. I liked the dakar rally car on road. It's just big and magnificent to look at.
This rally car should be road legal
It will be fun taking it to school 🤣🤣
As it's W16 will roar loud
God bless the Audi R8. One of the greatest cars of all time.
Great video, as usual, but please show us the speedo all the time. It would make the experience so much better!
The cross eye is improving
That electric Audi sounds like something awful is about to happen. 😳 It just sounds crazy.
My money is on the R8 for obvious reasons. It's stunning looks and awesome sound.
Your money is gone
@@michelbruns Technically it won the challenge. E won the Drag Race. R8 won the Rolling Race and Brake Test. So that would be a 2-1 victory for the R8
@@gamingmamba2584 first time watching a carwow video?
The drag race it was matters
Please do more drag races like these
Bravo mr rcq.etron (the electron mat lol )Cool race suprior clips keep on blowing !😃👍
The difference is, the RS e tron would also do an 11.2 sec quarter mile on dirt!
But why 4 minutes of talking? 😭😭😭😭
Woaaah... the nose dive on the brake test! That was epic! 😁👍
I'm beginning to absolutely love the combination of small combustion engines working in synergy with electric motors, it seems to be the best thing for the era of technology we're living in, and the performance advantages, as well as range increases are extremely valuable.
Wouldn't mind seeing a 2017 r8 v10+ vs 2022 r8 performance. Wondering if it got any slower since the 2017 ran 10.7 on Carwow multiple times 🤔
That's what I was thinking, it's probably just the driver though
@@theofficialbabatunde6378 Agreed, but I haven't seen the new one do better than a 10.9 on Carwow
@@TyFyy yeah that is weird, I know the best I've seen an r8 do is a 10.6 quarter mile at the world's greatest drag race 6
How about klasen r8 v10+ BiTurbo
E-Tinnitus
Mat, this was like a Mad Max episode! 😵💫😵💫😄
You were Mad Mat today!
Did you make coffee at the end of the race? It sounded like the kettle had definitely come to the boil 🤣
Let's w a moment to appreciate how much effort he puts into his contact to entertain::.❤️🤠
I took a moment to appreciate their calls to action to go to the carwow site :) although im not british and only british people can use it
Keep in mind with the electric vehicles you have full hp if you have over 70% charge in your batteries bellow that cars hp drops dramatically. With the combustion engine you have full hp until your have empty fuel tank .
that hasn't been true for many modern electric cars,... it's mostly a tesla thing
Thats not true lol
@@anthonyway oh well, I do own an EV,... and until about 10% battery capacity I can draw full power,... and that limitation is probably not even technical
Watson is Carwow, Carwow is Watson. May you both live long and prosper.
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!!!
The guys from Audi are so nice, i love them!
