Battle Of The German Executive Cars: Sedan VS Wagon

The Mercedes-Benz AMG E63 S is the fastest production Mercedes from the E-Class range, yet, this model is a BRABUS rework, which aims to push its performance as well as its look.

Its opponent in the drag race is an ABT Audi RS6 Avant, the RS6 being a high-performance variant of the A6 range.

With these two cars being an upgrade of their original models, they are due to make for an exhilarating race.

At the 'Petrolhead Spring Event' in Germany, the two compete for first place in a 1/8th-mile race and as many people would assume, the BRABUS gets off to an impeccable head start in comparison to the 700 horsepower Audi RS6 Avant. Although the Audi boasts a Milltek exhaust and sounds aggressive, aggression and performance ooze from the AMG E63 as it shoots off the line.

For the entire race, the BRABUS Mercedes-AMG E63 S 4Matic+ manages to stay ahead and as a result, takes home the win.

Although the Audi manages to secure the win against its first opponent, a Mercedes-AMG GT63 S 4Matic+, it seems that the Brabus E-Class is just that bit better.

Later in the races, the Audi also outperforms another tough competitor, the Corvette C7 Z06.

Even though the Audi RS6 Avant takes home two wins from the Petrolhead Spring Event, it does not manage to beat the AMG E63.

It justifies the 'fastest E-Class model' title that the E63 holds, however and manages to fly away from the start line and have a pretty easy finish, proving that it is more than capable of taking the lead in many other drag races.

Overall, the ABT Audi RS6 Avant and the BRABUS Mercedes-AMG E63 S 4Matic+ make for an exciting race - although the purr from the Audi is irresistible before the race begins, its performance isn't so desirable; the AMG E63 S takes home its win fair and square.
