My niece has the RSQ8.
Awesome car to drive and great exhaust note.

Even better when its time to give it back to her.
Just couldn't get used to the cockpit.

Oh look, another video in the rain...

Testing 0-60 and 1/4 in the rain is plain dumb.

All any of this proves is how that car performed on “that day” in those specific conditions. If you get wrapped up in thinking your the fastest SUV in every scenario, you are going to be very disappointed regardless what badge is on the back.

Carwow drag races are like 50% wet lol.

None of this matters when its wet. It just tests the different all wheel drive traction systems.

The only reason the Audi keeps it super close is because it has arguably a better AWD wet traction system.

Also, they should put the RSQ8 versus the faster X6MC. Since the X6MC is about .1s faster than the X5MC in most tests.

Finally, that rolling race was completely idiotic. The Audi was in manual mode in the power band at 4K RPM and the BMW was in Automatic mode in 3rd gear at 2K RPM. Wtf kind of head to head is this trash?
Agree 100%.

Drag races from a dig on wet pavement is idiotic. Even with AWD.
