Audi RS5 vs Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe thanks to Fifth Gear

Tiff Needell is back and this time with one of the most anticipated tests since Mercedes unveiled one of its latest gems, the Mercedes C63 AMG Coupe, a beast built with the sole aim of going head to head with vehicles as attractive as the Audi RS5 or the BMW M3 E92

Well, the guys at Fifth Gear had no better idea than to pit the latest generation of the Audi RS5 against the Mercedes C63 AMG Coupé, a beast whose main reason for existence is its 6.3-litre V8 capable of delivering 451 horsepower, against the 4.2-litre FSI V8 that delivers 450 horsepower in the RS5.

Specifically, we are talking about vehicles capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds for the Audi or 4.4 seconds for the vehicle of Mercedes with a top speed electronically limited in both cases to 250 km/h, although it should be remembered that, on request, the RS5 can raise its top speed to 280 km/h
