They increased the hp on the 2019 RS3. That is what should be compared to a M2C.

The other explanations are either the stock M2C has a much stronger top end despite with only a 10 PS advantage on paper or its been flashed with a CS or Stage 1 tune |

high 12s
If they did mid 10s, I'd overlook the numerous Audi faults and seriously consider an RS3

Sorry to say, not even close.. In this first video, the Rs3 schools the Tesla model 3 long range awd, which in an earlier version, schools the M2C in the second.

hmm..the M2C they are using is a manual which means it'll be slower off the line without launch control. The fact that we are talking rwd vs awd too plays a huge factor plus many more other details. Maybe they should of done a rolling race?

The AWD advantage is real for all of the street racers. The stop light drags are always fun in an AWD car. |

I'm pretty sure they generally trap low 12's stock but plenty of owners have broke 11 at sea level on 93 octane stock. It's not even debatable that it's in a different league than the M2C in a straight line as it can hang with the big dogs. Only problem for that car is when corners are introduced.

I was merely regurgitating Car and Driver test data who is notorious for achieving really good results as compared.to other journalists.
