It's time for an electrical vs petrol drag race!

We have actually got our hands on the brand-new Efficiency, and it's going head-to-head versus the RS7 Efficiency. The Tesla expenses less than half the rate of the , however does it stand a chance over the quarter-mile? Let's take a closer look …

Starting with the Audi, it's powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that can produce 630hp and 850Nm of torque. This power is sent to all four wheels, and the vehicle weighs in at 2,065 kg. As brand-new, it costs upwards of ₤ 133,000!

Then we have the Tesla. It's powered by two electric motors, and they use four-wheel drive. Combined, they can deliver 460hp and 650Nm. It weighs in at 1,839 kg, and as new, it costs around ₤ 60,000.

So, does it stand a possibility? There's just one method to find out … LET'S RACE!

    Race Idea: Tesla M3P with 100% charge, Tesla M3 @100%, Tesla M3P at 75%, M3P @ 50% and M3P @25%. Interesting to see how much difference charge makes and at what point does a fully charged regular model 3 beat a M3P with depleted battery.

    You should get a tire company to sponsor the races. The acceleration and especially the braking, are so dependent on the tire. It makes a huge disparity with braking times. Regardless of the size of the brakes. Ceramic rotors certainly don’t help the braking time either. Just the pads, and mainly the tires
