It’s time for an epic Audi vs Lamborghini showdown!

We’ve got Mat in his Audi R8 Spyder V10, and it’s facing off against a Lamborghini Huracan Evo! These cars are almost identical under the skin, but let’s see how they compare anyway.

Starting with the Audi, it’s powered by a 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V10 that can put down 620hp and 580Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, and it weighs in at 1,695kg. As new, this car would set you back around £167,000.

Then we have the Lambo. It’s powered by the same 5.2-litre V10 engine, but the power output has increased slightly, climbing to 640hp and 600Nm. It comes equipped with the same 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and the claimed dry weight is 1,422kg (so you can add around an extra 100kg for the proper weight). It’s a bit pricier than the Lambo, costing around £198,000.

So will the more powerful Lambo snatch it? Or will the Audi’s launch propel it to victory? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

    It's one thing when Mat loses - it's apparently another when he loses badly in his own car. Just imagine if Yianni had been driving the Lambo and trash-talking Mat 😬

  • The R8 was in "James May" setting as written on the gage cluster when it was zoomed in It was in "Capitain Slow" mode , that's why 😊

    The transition @11:23 of selling cars is perfect after he is pissed at the R8, great editing - I love R8’s and ill take it haha
  • Matt, if your tyre pressures are up high that can upset the launch calculations. Try launching it with 4psi less all round... Also make sure that the front and rear tyres (whatever psi you run) have the same difference percentage between front and back as the recommendation. Those millimeters front to back can make the difference between it's calculations of projected or actual wheelspin, and therefore think there's moore spin on one axle than there is.

    Matt drag racing any other car: "Car is slow." Matt racing his own car: "Alright, so we're going to need to repave the entire runway..."

    Can you imagine how ruthless Yiannie would have been had he been in the Lambo! Mat probably would have resigned in humility😂😂
