We’ve seen a lot of new Audi models, like the 2020 Audi RS6 Avant, RS7 Sportback and RS Q8, race each other as of late, but that’s only because most of these cars are still relatively new to certain markets.
The 2020 RS4 Avant came out in October of last year having undergone a few styling changes. Power comes from a twin turbo 2.9-liter V6 that’s mated to an 8-speed automatic and quattro all-wheel drive.
The RS4 Avant is thus capable of hitting 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 4.1 seconds, putting its 444 HP (450 PS) and 442 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque to good use.

As far as weight is concerned, the RS4 carries around some 1,790 kg (3,950 lbs), while the larger RS7 Sportback weighs 2,065 kg (4,552 lbs). Of course, the latter also has more power in order to deal with the extra mass.
Underneath the RS7’s hood lies a 4.0-liter twin turbocharged V8 producing 591 HP (600 PS) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. According to Audi, it will hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.6 seconds, so, on paper, it should outsprint the RS4.
The following video shows the two Audis race each other from a standstill and a rolling start, and perform a brake test. Moreover, the drivers executed each run (aside from the brake test) several times in order to make sure their results were as accurate as possible.
