Questions

Is the Audi RS4 Avant B9 or the Audi RS6 Avant Performance C8 faster?
The Audi RS6 Avant Performance C8. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 11.18 s to the Audi RS4 Avant B9's 11.80 s, a margin of 0.62 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 2.92 s against 3.35 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Audi RS4 Avant B9 0-60 time?
The Audi RS4 Avant B9 reaches 60 mph in 3.35 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 11.80 s at 116.5 mph.
What is the Audi RS6 Avant Performance C8 0-60 time?
The Audi RS6 Avant Performance C8 reaches 60 mph in 2.92 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 11.18 s at 123.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Audi RS4 Avant B9 trips the lights at 116.5 mph and the Audi RS6 Avant Performance C8 at 123.1 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 9 of 10 for the Audi RS4 Avant B9 and 9 of 11 for the Audi RS6 Avant Performance C8. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
