The Tesla Model 3<\/a> and Audi RS6 Avant are both family cars by definition, but that\u2019s pretty much the only thing the two cars have in common. One is an electric sedan with a design that plays it safe while the other is a V8-powered wagon with an aggressive look like no other long-roof car before it. Despite the major differences, some will be surprised to see the cars are pretty even in a good old-fashioned drag race.<\/p>\n

Carwow<\/em> lined them up for a clash of two worlds, pitting Palo Alto\u2019s EV against Ingolstadt\u2019s twin-turbo 4.0-liter beast. Thanks to dual electric motors in the case of the Model 3 Performance and Quattro for the RS6, both cars benefit from all-wheel drive. It\u2019s an important feature to have in a drag race as it helps put the power to the wheels off the line in a more effective way.<\/p>\n
