Every single video gets a comment like this from someone not realising this is essentially the MAGAZINE'S youtube channel. The magazine has always been like this.
An M3 is not the same weight. And OEMs gravitate toward sales, sales that are driven by people wanting effortless speed, astronomical power and sublime comfort and composure (not to mention increased safety aspects).
Yep,there are so many videos of a track battles without any battle or lap times on TH-cam, that's just sad, idk what is the point of talking about how fast this car or how great it handles without any results,bc they talking like that about every new car I hope my English is understandable 😅
But why? It's a large 4x4. Not a track car. And making it good on track will likely make it poor on crappy pot-holed country roads where it'll be used in the real world.
@@WCHADWICK it's probably a combination of that and cars becoming more refined (ie more sound deadening) so you can't hear the sound that reduced in volume anyway
Here's the thing, you can quote laptimes and 0-60's all you like for performance SUV's but you'll never actually see one driving fast on the public road because they are just too big, too remote, and too heavy. Honestly, the handwheel tells you absolutely nothing about the level of grip available (watch this vid, even on a wide smooth track the Stig has about 3 goes at getting the nose into a turn) so you can i hope appreciate why on a typical public road, with bends, dips, on-comming traffic, mud and leaves on the road and god knows what else, no normal driver actually ever uses the performance because they have no idea about how hard they are, or are not, trying. The reason say an Elise is such a fast car, despite being really rather slow, is because you CAN actually use all of that performance, and you don't have to be carol vorderman to work out that 99% of 200 is more than 25% of 600........
Straight to the point. Never seen an SUV using half of his capabilities while driving down the curvy A7 from Milan to Genoa. Same drivers who overtook you in the straight line at 200++ begin to drive on the right lane and within limits till the tollgate
I've watched almost every single RS6 Performance video on TH-cam, but this presenter just irritated me so much that I almost switched this one off. Sorry, but the only way that I could continue was on 1.25x speed, so that he's talking at a pace suitable for an adult, otherwise it's like listening to a pre-school teacher in English class...
incredible to me that in 2024 a Top Gear presenter doesn't understand WHY that livery is on that car. Google Audi IMSA 90 quattro. LEARN some history before filming next time.
I understand. Clarkson Top Gear was broad appeal entertainment. New Top Gear has gone back to its roots of being completely about cars. It’s now and again a show for petrolheads like me so I’m happy, je suis désolé 😊.
Liking fast estates but not SUVs does NOT make you a hypocrite. SUVs are completely wasteful and a marketing shame. Don’t pander to those who say otherwise because they’re just wrong. Estates are basically as practical but weight 20% less. (The new M5 ruins this rule and sucks because of this)
I can hear the Stig's head, "Okay Goose, I feel the need for speed." Carbon fiber rims on a Range Rover are just a waste of money by stupid people... What's the point? It's like a pig in a tutu or an SVJ with offroad tiers. I'd take the Audi, but I'm biased as an S4 owner.
Naa. It's like Audi watched what Clarkson did to his S4 in the Grand Tour and without a trace of irony, had a meeting and went 'why didn't we zink of that?'
A bit of a pointless video really. 2 cars out of reach for most, doing something that’s out of reach for most, and not addressing anything of value in the process. I used to enjoy the TG vids as they had a bit of thought put into them. Not this one.
As impressive as it is for doing the big drifts etc, that is not what it’s going to be doing on the school run! It’s just such a waste of engineering. More fool the people that buy them!
Hey top gear there is only one persoon that can make word jokes in a car video... Thats clarkson. There is only one guy that can yob it around corners and that's Chris harris.... Stop this copycat behaviour and be yourself with an authentic test. Not this ... ❌
Practicality or performance? You can only choose one...
both in the RS6
Practicality, performance, capability, fun and head-turning beauty in the RS6.
Beauty and style.
RS6 ofc.
Audi RS6 all day long
Your editor accidentally put “track battle” in the title
Shit just pissed me off lol
In the Old Top Gear, boys would do painting competition sitting in the rear seat while being sent in the corners in these beauties.
This is Top Gear Magazine you numpty. And "old" Top Gear is 1977-2001
@@toastrytoaster nah now its 2002 till 2014 thats classic top gear man
Boring comment . Get a grip and move on.

What a ridiculous world we live in where a BMW M3 is the same weight as a Range Rover and people are complaining that 626hp isn't enough to be 'fast'
Yes I think Alpine realise less weight is more . Shame Lotus forgot that
An M3 is not the same weight. And OEMs gravitate toward sales, sales that are driven by people wanting effortless speed, astronomical power and sublime comfort and composure (not to mention increased safety aspects).
@@timetherington-judge8682 yes but my Alpine is more fun to drive and I don’t look like a crack dealer in an over weight car with a horrible grill
Did you mean m5
@ no
Carbon Wheels on a SUV is insane
8500€ one wheel if you need to replace one
@@n1ggo892when, not if
just look at a curb weird and the carbon cracks
Carbon wheels on any road or race car is insane, even slight damage will mean a replacement wheel.
I have watched the video but I must have fallen asleep at some point because I missed the “track battle”!
Yep,there are so many videos of a track battles without any battle or lap times on TH-cam, that's just sad, idk what is the point of talking about how fast this car or how great it handles without any results,bc they talking like that about every new car

This 6D dynamic suspension in the RRS SV with carbon ceramic brakes and carbon wheels is a crazy combo!😱
Lots of people probably don’t know about this but: The Range Rover Sport is actually one of the first SUV to be developed on the Nurburgring.
But why? It's a large 4x4. Not a track car. And making it good on track will likely make it poor on crappy pot-holed country roads where it'll be used in the real world.
@@benmilesbc nurburgring is exactly that - crappy pot-holed country road. Its a far cry from real racetracks.
@maximborodyuk3773 good point!
@@benmilesbc mate that car was designed to be an suv for track not like the defender which is BEAUTIFUL and is thinked for offroad
@@benmilesbcand even though it can still do offroad but it’s more thinked to perform well at track
"Track battle" with the stig available and no laptimes?
I have a rule, if it has the words “Sport” and “Utility” in the description, I’m not interested in the slightest.
Why?
The suv hate is ridiculous
@ that’s an opinion, much like mine.
You’re still interested enough to leave a comment to spread hate so…
And yet you have probably never driven/owned one.
@ wrong and wrong
Great video as always. I think piping in sound has to be one of the saddest evolutions in the automotive industry.
Another 'add to solve a problem that didn't exist 20 years ago'
It’s either that or no noise unfortunately - noise regulations…
@@WCHADWICK it's probably a combination of that and cars becoming more refined (ie more sound deadening) so you can't hear the sound that reduced in volume anyway

@@DiaperSNiFFER and your point is?
Definitely one of your best uploads yet!
His criticisms of the Range Rover are spot on. 👍
10:58 Some say that he is put into long term storage, which is why his suit has turned yellow. All we know is, he's called The Stig.
That SV is just epic , not keen on that RS6 though.
That RS6 GT looks awesome in nardo grey colour!.🎉❤
How does this test makes sense?
I thought the Stig was dead but no, here he is looking fresh 👌
You are incredible, don't stop creating content!
Why even put the RS6 in there? Taking up space for better 2024 cars that were left out
Ce n'est plus Top Gear, c'est devenu juste des présentation de voitures!😮💨, Clarckson, May et Hammond me manquent ❤
Boring comment. Move on
@V_Dubya j'ai déjà dévelopé, on ne sait plus qui c'est les présentateurs, il n'y a plus de défis...😮💨

@@AlfaSaab il s'agit du magazine Top Gear, pas de l'émission de télévision.
Ce sont deux choses différentes.
Land Rover got bored of everyone copying THE SUV so now theyre picking a fight with everything else
1:04 some say his new dad likes to stig it with the soccer moms in the back seat.
It's really sad that the TopGear series ended
LOVE THE WRAP!!!!! So many folks seem to tame and whipped as to not like the wrap. Shame on you. The Range Rover is a barge.
10:18 You sound like you’re hating on the range for reducing its unsprung mass. The same thing you’d praise a conventional sports car for.
Liking fast estates but not SUVs does NOT make you a hypocrite. SUVs are completely wasteful and a marketing shame. Don’t pander to those who say otherwise because they’re just wrong. Estates are basically as practical but weight 20% less. (The new M5 ruins this rule and sucks because of this)
Other than looks (subjective), why would someone opt to pay more for a RR Sport SV than an X5M?
Did you notice the chunks of metal dropping from the RR as it was cornering at around 7mins?
RS6 is so good. 🎉🎉
What a trainwreck of a review.
I love them both, but it's the Rover if forced to choose.
Surely the SV is very very fast FULL STOP and not just for an SUV.
Audi GT models.. a poor atempt to the successful receipt of BMW M CS models! 😁🤷♂️
I'm taking the range rover any day
Did I miss something not much of a comparison if you fail to do back to back lap times … ? Track battle ?????
Is the stig Ollie ?
Why did Audi just take the saloon A6 and make it a RS6 GT? That would make sense 🤔
Don't you dare scrap the Hilux 😡.
It’s the thunderbird man! lol 🤣
Ollie totally agree super estates are much better than sporty SUVs :)
Great video :)
There is literally.... nothing left for the working man.
That SV was on 3 wheels around the corner
9:52 Even if the car is heavy light weight rims get off weight from most essential rotating object in a car
I can hear the Stig's head, "Okay Goose, I feel the need for speed."

I'm only here for the Audi.
Bro fighting for his life at the back sit of Range Rover
Zero track battle. Click bait. No time set.
Like why are y'all even comparing. I convinced yall bored
That rs6 gt was tested and is actually 638hp and 876Nm😢
Why does Ollie walk so weird
It’s the cancer from reading comments like yours..
Sorry guys, but these reviews seem to be getting more desperate. The content is just what it used to be.
Intersting, but… a bit boring?
I got no interest in SUVs
*sees Range Rover Sport, Toyota Land Cruiser and Mitsubishi Outlander* Although…
fastest thing on the Audi is the exhaust
Why is he doing a Tiff Needell impression?
I would have any SUV over an estate car.
Bet you drive a Nissan Qashqai.
No never suv
@@pes6616 nope, Jaguar f-pace HSE. One of the best cars I have ever owned.
who won?
The normal RS6 is a gorgeous car, but this GT is just pornographic.
Naa. It's like Audi watched what Clarkson did to his S4 in the Grand Tour and without a trace of irony, had a meeting and went 'why didn't we zink of that?'
Bmw M5cs engine inside that range rover 😮😮😮😮😮
RS6 forever!! No doubt.
Sad they are still using the Stig .
Was great in the day for the real TG .............now just a bit sad
That walk tho
Ollie you look like Sean Hayes
I love the Audi livery
Save yourself some money and just buy an M3 touring 👍
Why?

The main reason to get an SUV is ground clearance and towing capacity. And yes, some people actually need both depending on their drives…
Range Rovers are mainly driven by women going to get their nails done after their morning yoga session with their poodles.
I dont like this presenter.. I'll past on this one
Isnt this the car ehich went fast and got into accident
