Uploaded 4 years ago by Top Gear

Video Summary

Here is the summary:
- The Audi e-tron GT RS boasts 590 horsepower, and over 600 horsepower in overboost.
- The cost is between £120,000 to £145,000, depending on the specific configuration.
- The car has a sensational design, with tight and clean lines and massive hips in the rear. There is no silly grille.
- It is the first Audi RS model without exhaust pipes.
- The interior is a conventional car design and beautiful with expensive-feeling materials. There are separate buttons for heater controls.
- All-electric car interiors chase Tesla with one massive screen, and it was good this was a traditional design.
- The test car had great-looking seats that didn't hold him in all the right places; the supports were too low down.
- Performance is absurd; the traction is immense because of the weight, and it fires you out of corners.
- It has nice grumbling noises, not like a big engine Audi RS.
- The steering is good for an Audi, and the car demolishes a wet circuit.
- It is a classic case of a big EV. Up to about 85%, these are shockingly fast and competent; when you push it a little further, you realize that it weighs about as much as a small planet.
- With ESP off, the car transitions intuitively, which has led to a sense of connection and confidence between his right foot and what the back of the car will do.
- Having a range of about 230 miles when fully charged, the range disappears quickly.
- Compared to the BMW M5 CS, the M5 offered more fun.
- Compared to the M5's interior, although the dashboard is confusing, the seats are sensational.
- It was a great starting point for the future of electric RS Audis.
- The BMW's suspension felt livelier.
- In conclusion, the Audi leaves him a bit surprised, whereas the BMW is so much that all you can say is that it is a silly monster.
