625hp BMW M5 v 620hp Audi R8 V10: DRAG RACE

Have a look at .de: @carwowDeutschland

Which is quickest in a drag race – a Competition, or an V10 Efficiency Spyder?

Well, it's time to find out, as Mat goes head-to-head with Daniel from the German YouTube channel!

So let's see how the 2 and trucks compare. Starting with the BMW, it's powered by a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 that provides 625hp and 750Nm of torque. Power is sent out to all 4 wheels by means of an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and the automobile suggestions the scales at 1,865 kg. When it concerns cost, a brand-new will set you back around ₤ 111,000.

Then together with it we have the R8. It's equipped with a 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V10 which can put down 620hp and 580Nm. Power is sent to all 4 wheels through a 7-speed double clutch automatic gearbox, and the and truck weighs in at 1,695 kg. This cars and truck is a fair bit more expensive than the BMW, with this specific design costing around ₤ 180,000!

So the BMW has somewhat more power, but will it edge it when they reach the quarter-mile? There's just one method to find out … LET'S RACE!

      ​@Krishit’s useless to add 911 turbo S because normal turbo smoked the M5cs already

    This drag race is very weird and this race amazed me about how the M5 is bloody quick car even it wins a break TEST considering it’s heavy weight it’s just “WOOW!”

      Whatever they did, they fucked up bad. The M5 and even the CS doesn’t stand a chance against the R8.

      ⁠​⁠@Elessar they hardly fucked up. 😂 You’re comparing a 4 door saloon to a 2 door super car, considering it’s .2 seconds off it over 1/4 mile isn’t too bad and left 😂

      @kole081 Except when my 992 Turbo S shows up. Actually I was pretty impressed with the Audi R8 – the M5 is exceptionally fast and I thought it would pull more of a gap.

      @Adam SExcept for when my Ferrari SF90 shows up. The 992 Turbo S is cool but I expect Porsche to be faster honestly.

      Especially it weighs 200kg more than the R8 and it has better breaks and a better launch

    3. Gabriel Balinski Avatar
      Gabriel Balinski

      ⁠well weight would actually give it a better launch itself

      @just a random person on the internet I mean we already know BMW massively understates their HP numbers. It’s a nice upside for the owners but not an apples to apples comparison against their competitors when comparing quoted HP numbers

    Carwow’s videos could reach new heights by including acceleration metrics like 100-200 km/h and 60-130 mph. These figures would add an exciting dimension to their content, enhancing the overall experience for enthusiasts and viewers alike.

    Anyone else think Carwow and Throttle House are by far the best car channels on YouTube? It’s not even close, feels like I’m watching Top Gear in it’s prime with both of these channels. You guys are amazing

      Yes, I did watch «throttle h.» and «hagerty», but carwow for me much better, watching it for years, Matt and Yanni the best! Lol
