What's Faster In A Straight Line: Jaguar F-Type R Or Audi RS6?
After pitting them head-to-head over the course of a lap, the guys at Cars.co.za decided to see which of these two AWD V8 heavyweights is faster in a straight line. The result is one seriously close race!
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

I don’t really care which one wins — the F-Type is still one of my dream cars. OK, maybe I care a little…but it won’t change my mind!
Good news F-Type owners, you are safe from tailgaters!
rs6 with 1K euro in remap, exhaust, and new intake does 700+ hp
Price for my region
I would not consider you safe in the Jag… Looks like you can be tailgated till about 100mph, and in the states there is no where to go 100+.
Yaaay for V8!
Jag f type>>>>>>>>>>>Audi wagon.
They should do a race to see which one breaks down first XD
Audi for sure. One of the most unreliable cars on the road
Yes, now do it with the RS6+… I was surprised by the outcome of this tbh.
It feels good to be right
A wagon vs a coupe and only this little margin pfff this Jag is a joke if you compare weight with performance the RS6 is ahead by a mile.

It lost. The Jag has slightly less power but is also nearly 1/3 of a ton lighter.
Who does the guy in the Jag remind me of. I know its someone :(
Nissan GT Academy winner
Looking at choosing between these cars next year, so loving the tests - think the Audi would have won both if they used Audi’s launch control
the f type doesn’t have launch control
