- No budget limits, no restrictions: what's the greatest family car? Well Chris Harris thinks it's the new Audi RS6 Avant. A practical estate with nearly 600hp to get Little Johnny to football practice very, very quickly. Paddy McGuinness disagrees though, and proffers the Lamborghini Urus for consideration. A ludicrously fast SUV with perhaps the ultimate badge for playground bragging rights. Well, let's see what they've got to say then...

Right!
They don’t care - they have already collected your TV licence money - they could burn the tapes and still be up on the deal.
@@eliotmansfield Right on point dude 🔥
@@MMaster1908 no one cares about those 3 anymore. They were great at TopGear. Horrendous without it
Chris Harris is the only reason why I still watch this channel.
Exactly dude exactly
Facts....
It’s almost like we just want
Chris Harris on Cars
Or has that been a thing already
Innit.. it’s gone shit
They’re lucky to have Harris and the credibility he brings
@@Ober1kenobi He said in his podcast that he is going to start the youtube thing again didnt he...
That's the thing. Super SUVs are no more capable than estates. If you want an SUV,buy a G wagon or a Range Rover,not a fast 4X4 wannabe. And the urus costs 160,000 quid without options. You could buy an RS6 and save the money for a Cayman GT4 that you could drive on track days. Just think about it. And of course,unlike a Range Rover or a G wagon you get stuck in the muck in a Lamborghini.
But why would I ever want a Range rover or G Wagon? Lameeee
@@ryang7720 Because those are actually offroad capable and luxury vehicles. Urus is not offroad capable. It's just an elevated estate, elevation and design bring absolutely nothing while worsening control, stability and performance. It's useless.
I think people buy Urus’s not because they want an suv but because it means they can daily drive their Lambo without it being impractical around town.
@@mirkomarjanovic3234 your actually completely wrong, Lamborghini really did well with the off-road capabilities, it’s not a G Wagon or a Range, but the Urus handled sand dunes in Dubai, and the mud in Russia, and considering it’s a Lamborghini it’s so capable and has such an emotion to it. Why are people so cruel on the Urus, Lamborghini needed to make it because they needed to survive, they did a bloody good job at it
@@mirkomarjanovic3234 the Urus is as offroad capable as their owners require them to be. It's not like G Wagon and Range Rover owners are going serious rock hopping in their cars. If you are driving on muddy fields or the snow or countryside the Urus is plenty. I think the Urus is far more capable than any of their owners require. There are plenty of videos that prove that the Urus sister car the Cayenne is pretty capable offroad. Most won't see much offroad beyond a gravel road or the road to the ski fields but that doesn't mean they couldn't handle more.
One of these people knows cars. The other is driving a lambo SUV.

@UCCTpUwnqr7qykSR7sH-aAGQ Who do you mean ?
The real rival to the RS6 is the E63 AMG estate
It wouldn't make for as entertaining TV. They are trying to create conflict.
Maybe also Alpine B5 Touring. But maybe:-)
@@sambor wouldn’t that be an rs6 abt competitor then since the alpine is tuned?
@@skyyqs3742 maybe s6 abt since alpina is based on 550i, I believe..
Alpina (not Alpine, that is different company from France) B5 Toouring is based on the body of the 540i Touring with the engine from the 550i, that is tuned to produce 621 HP in the LCI versions. Pre-facelift version had 600 HP. And Alpina is considered a car manufacturer, not a tuner.
Sorry SUV fans, but "performance" and "high-riding" never always go together well. I'd take the RS6 all day long.
🤣 it’s the same thing. Same company, same engine and same performance. Do your research
You shouldn't say "sorry" to SUV fans.
@@germainwilson800 it's not "same performance"
The Touareg and Benteyga also share the platform with the Urus, yet the Touareg is slower and the Bentley faster. Also the RS6 does not share the Platform with the Urus, the RSQ8 does.
@@germainwilson800 I think you need to do your research
@@germainwilson800 The rs6 is an entirely different car. The drivetrain, gearbox, suspension, engine ratios etc of the rs6 is hugely different from the urus.
This should have done way before. But no problem it's never too late
Ram ram ram
DOT! FU.
Comparing two Audi’s
Yeah they should have just mentioned that the Urus is literally an Audi RSQ8, and that engine is the same one in both cars.
@@juliantaffa4089 wow, the lambo is a scam then
@Bob Ajob 67 percent of the time it works every time.
@@juliantaffa4089 Same engine but 40hp more in the Urus
Lambo instantly loses just for being an SUV, imagine how much better it would be, with all that engineering, if it was lower and lighter but otherwise had all the same features, like, maybe an estate car....
Imagine the Urus being based on the RS7 instead of the RSQ8
Lamborghini should've made a shooting brake version of the Estoque. That would have been awesome.
you gotta remember the urus was made for sales... if it was based on the rs6/7 it would instantly lose half of its US market. But within the VW group, in terms of engineering, the panamera turbo sport turismo and rs6 are on par with the urus
@@riptiide9285 the Panamera Turbo S easily outperforms both though
@@DefinitelyNotEmma I think the new Taycan cross turismo will be the quickest practical car in the world. It will be launched next week.
Seen one of these new RS6 and the presence it has it just looks like the ultimate weapon.....and its huge
The only reason to pick the Urus over the RS6 is because u have to compensate something :)
Or, you want to be extra safe and have visibility even with other tall cars around.
@@henrym5889 "Tasteless" - as judged by your taste - THE universal standard of taste.

@@henrym5889 What does that even mean?
Why shouldn't I attack the things I find stupid?
Why should I comment on things I have no interest or motivation to comment on?
If I want to attack a particular point of some philosopher that I find stupid or evil, does it make sense for someone to say "Wow, he has made thousands of other points in his books! Why did you choose to ignore them all and attack this one?!"
No, it does not. It is complete nonsense actually.
Bye.
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 He’s right, they’re bought my tasteless rich morons who have to be in the weirdest looking thing so they can show people they’re rich. What’s the point of the point of the urus? It’s a SUV that can’t go off-road, doesn’t have a serious cargo capacity advantage over the rs6, it looks worse than most things on the road, it drives worse than the rs6 because of the high center of gravity and it costs twice as much. It’s not even a real lambo, it has Audi v8.
@@exnihilonihilfit6316 It isn’t more safe as it has more Rollover risk and a higher centre of gravity meaning lots of injuries for passengers in a side crash.
That RS6 Avant is the pinnacle of the vehicle. If only they were not unattainable!
love the cinematic shots of the RS6
Chris Harris to the other dude: Do I not have to listen to you anymore?
Everyone else: SAME! Actually, how about never?
It's amazing how many cones that RS6 can carry around!
Trying to pretend the other parents would be in estate cars Paddy? Nah mate, they're all in SUVs, along with everyone else who's given up on life. Most SUVs are just minivans with a lift. Worst motoring trend in ages!
How did I not realise that before!
Because minivans are considered uncool, everyone needed something like a minivan, but was considered cool, which ended up being the SUV/crossover. However, all it did was make SUVs uncool, because it was the people that were uncool, not the cars.
Minivans have become much cooler in my mind!
Urus looks like a 3 years old kid designed it. Just look at the speedometer, it is like some of those cheap toddler teaching toys with large colorful numbers, shapes etc.
Love how the music is soo loud you forget the Audi has a rev limiter
Here is a RS6 with a New Software without a Softlimiter and its sounds amazing :)
czcams.com/video/fj5RXRlechw/video.html
Love the RS6 but how the hell is Paddy going to keep up with Chris in any car!
I would honestly watch Chris Harris road test a bloody shopping trolley!!! Yes the other 3 were good in there day but there has been a changing of the guard and I honestly think its for the better.
Correct.
"The SUVs in general are wrong." thank you Chris.
We’d all have the RS6 because Chris said it’s better! He actually knows how to drive and what he’s doing!
I wouldn’t trust the other one to tell me what the weather is!
I like how everybody talks about the E63s although the Alpina B5 Touring is a thing.
*sad BMW noises*
Alpinas are fast but tuned to be much more comfort oriented overall than the M/RS/AMG cars. Fast in a straight line, desirable road cars, but not track weapons.
@@Trendyflute neither the RS6 nor E63s T-Model are track cars though
@@Trendyflute Who the fuck buys an RS6 or E63 to go on a track lmao
@@ieditedmyname289 Alpina is an official partner of BMW
@@ieditedmyname289 They get the cars directly from BMW. Think of it as the M division, only more dignified.
“Ill take a second slower” thanks 😂
So basically what Chris is saying is if 'He' drove the Urus, he'd have matched the RS6's lap time 😆
just what I thought.
I'd look at anyone in a Lamborghini Urus and feel pretty confident they have more money than sense.
I would look at someone who makes a comment like that and feel pretty confident that they suffer from tall poppy syndrome.
Do you think they care what you feel? They made it to be able to afford the car, and you didn't.
You got clowns reviewing lambos these days .
I miss those old days
@Standout Punch ain't that a good thing !
@@mrtoppistonhead same here Clarkson Hammond May are the best .
I mean Lambos are for clowns lol
Because they're clown cars, especially compared to Ferraris
paddy insults Chris but he looks like SickBoy in Trainspotting T3
I watched that episode last night (the outdoor stage is awesome!!) and I love the Audi.
Calling a station wagon an "estate" is about the most British thing there is, well maybe after the hood a "bonnet" and the trunk a "boot" and the windshield a... Nevermind.
We call it a wagon in Oz, but the rest of the English speaking world outside of North American calls it a bonnet and a boot.
A bonnet is a female's hat and a boot is a shoe.
@@rhull3939 A hood is also something you put on your head, and a trunk is what trees and elephants have lol
In germany we call wagons/estates Kombis ^^
@@bunky8077 Very true. Haha.
You should Exchange the cars to see if the result is depending not only on the car but also on the pilot.
good dynamics you two keep it up
Him: yes folks!! Lamborghini has a suv!!
Me : yeah.... But where have you been??? Mars???
This show was much better when Clarkson May and Hammond trio used to do this.
“I will take the second slower, thanks”
😂 😂 😂
2021 rewatching these TOP GEAR 2020.
The magnificent of RS6 🔥
"the Urus might just be the most exciting SUV ever made!" LOOOOOOOL, Paddy! oh Paddy!
Chris Harris is the only reason to watch Top Gear these days. Oh and I’d have that RS6 over just about ANY car on sale today.
The cinematics are insane tho
Man oh man Top Gear still has the best production around... All the action shots are crazy good.
Also, chrs bby, pls no more those shoes, ya can't escape your age
If you think this is top notch production, just take a look at Jason Cammisa's stuff on Hagerty. They're a whole other level
They gave Chris those shoes just so the Urus would have *something* going for it. :p
God I wish the original trio were still there...
Yeah never thought I'd miss the previous version with mat
Fun fact: Both cars are from Audi
no audi own lamborghini but they dont make lamborghini
Both are volkswagen
Both are an automobile
@@domingofung well done
@GT Suryateja To be pedantic: MLB is a system to build platforms, not a platform per say. Elements can be assembled at different points and lengths to create different plaforms. A kind of Lego system where one pick parts and assemble them according to needs. That's how the group create platforms sized from the A4 to the Q8 using the same system. MLB was developped by Audi, but VW also uses it on the Touareg and the Phideon. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Group_MLB_platform
Lambo also made the platform lighter by replacing elements with carbon fiber. The engine is based on the Audi V8, and modified by Lambo to get 100hp more. I think the transmission is the same as the one in the RS6.
It's more a cousin than a twin of the Q8 at this point; a bit like the Audi 80/RS2 or the Q5/Macan pairs.
no mention of understeer or how much better drifting the E63 S Estate is
And it's cheaper, and it's faster. At least the previous pre facelift model is.
The new E63s looks wack . Pre facelift looked much better
@@tariqparker6043 it's a little too clean I'll always take the better driving car over looks though
Good to me.
Drifting is absolutely worthless. My dad had an E63s until it got totalled, not one drift done with it. Drifting is overrated for street cars, the Quattro AWD is definitely better, especially for winter conditions
Lamborghini: release the urus in 2018
Paddy in 2021: thats right lamborghini has an suv
Damn the RS6 Avant kicked the Urus's butt to the got damn curb. Me personally SUV's could be difficult sometimes due to some of them being either a little too high or way too high off the ground. However that can happen to any car not just SUV's. I have driven a couple of SUV's and sometimes I feel like I am about to hit something or someone even though I don't intentionally do that, it's just the ground clearance that is a little too high but I get used to it after a while.
If you hold the wheel at 10 and 2, you’re 1-0 down already.
4:29 "Urus, it sounds like an exit hole", Chris is now copying jokes from Jeremy?
Unfortunately it's scripted so not really his choice
@@user-py6jx2uy3d True
It is still quite true.
It actually does sound itchy.
@@AndorRadnai Yes , it sound like an simply V8.
I was waiting for it
"you're an accountant in your pink socks with your estate car" 😆😆😆
I take the lower center of gravity thank you very much!
Chris Harris, Henry Catchpole and one of Jack Rix/Matt Farah/Johnny Smith. There you go TopGear, i have rescued your brand and name.
You're welcome.
Excellent !😊👍🏁🏁🏁🏁
I was nearly not seen this. What a surprise, Mr Harris.
top gear without Richard Hammond , James May & Jeremy Clarkson, lost its reputation
It has literally been years, why are you still here you twat
@@1148bucknasty because he can't accept that Chris Harris does an amazing job
"You'd have to be an idiot..." Not to consider the E36s Estate.
Is that a new Mercedes model?
Looks too much like a Hearse at the back for me, good car though.
Not many of those coming new off the production lines these days.
You mean E63s?
A) would like to see the Audi Avant against an AMG estate... B) would like to see them switch cars to decide if it is the driver or the car.
Chris to the rescue! C7 RS6 Avant and X218 CLS63 Shooting Brake | czcams.com/video/Xm_RvrS67VU/video.html
Would never buy a car without seeing Chris reviewing it first 🙏🏼
I think that every top gear has been bad beacuse they always try to imitate jeremy, James, Richard style rather than finding their own style
I think that the more than 7 millions of subscribers tell you no you're wrog dude :-)
i'd take the Avant without hesitating
Niceee great video well done!
Someone give the editor of this video a raise!
rs6 team ---------->
Imagine if Lamborghini did a super estate...
No reason to imagine, that would be reskined RS6, like with any car from VW group
They're already working on 2 more cars, a 2 door coupe and a 4 door sedan
@@misa664 Sadly they will still not do it, I don't think VW is going to sacrifice the Lamborghini brand to make all sorts of cars, they only did an SUV because the damand for SUVs is high right now.
That would be sick!
It might have the same engine as the Urus, and it will be much faster than both the Urus and the RS6
And make it a V12 please.
Let's be honest that if Chris had driven the Urus as well he probably would have either matched the rs6 time or come as close as possible.
That Uris is an Audi Q7 underneath. It's based on the same platform. All you get for an extra 100k+ is a faster engine and Lamborghini styling... which in this rare case is HIDEOUS!
It’s a more expensive version of RSQ8
I hope you will do this again with Ferrari's new SUV Prosangue in 2022.
The Ferrari against the Porsche Taycan cross turismo for the fastest practical car title.
I hope the ferrari suv is something that never gets made . Then I hope all the rest of these stupid suvs disappear to .
@@paulthomson9014 Most people I ask what they look for in a car say the most important thing to them is being nice and high off the ground because it makes them feel safe. While that is a dumb reason, manufacturers are beholden to peoples' desires, and these SUV's are raking in money for manufacturers like nothing else, so until people start wanting to be low to the ground they will keep making SUV's and there is unfortunately nothing we can do about it. One good thing about all this though is that just like the Cayenne is what allows Porsche to keep making the 911 without having to worry about finances, the Purosangue will likely allow Ferrari to have more money to develop proper supercars with.
@@CockatooDude fortunately though like every fashion craze this stupid suv craze will come to an end . Just be a case getting them all collected of driveways and streets and.garages . Destroying them as.quickly and efficiently as possible and moving on to some good looking cars again .
@@paulthomson9014 If anything it'll actually be pressure from environmental movements that makes cars smaller again, since producing an SUV requires more materials and therefore more mining.
I PREFER THE E63s ESTATE!!!!
As you should.
I wasn't sure if I should check this video out, but after I heard Chris' voice all was well.

RSQ8 over Urus 🤭
I hate the urus its flashy, ugly and for an expensive car it looks cheap
It looks like Civic has over done steroids, but it costs 160l.00 lol.
Suits that idiot who reviewd it
Ugly? That’s some good thing you’re smoking LOL 😂
So it's every Lamborghini after the Gallardo and Murcielago were discontinued
Recently saw one in my city. ...The driver was an utter psycho.
This is the best review with the urus aswell
Wonder how quick it was with chris driving🤔
Should of done an old fashion drag race 🏁
Urus is designed to be closer to an off roader than a track weapon, anything it has on the audi on, Lambo would crush the audi on a trail, any advantage it has on track is just a bonus
It shares so much stuff with the RS6 that it might as well be called a lifted RS6! Urus has no off-road advantage apart from a couple of inches of ground clearance. That's it!
Nobody is going offroad in their urus besides hitting the curbs at starbucks parking lots
@@aimxdy8680 lol i mean thats the case for 95% of all Wrangler, Bronco, and Cayenne owners too, but these cars were all designed to be pretty serious off-roaders.
@@-Diceman The urus can’t offroad, it has LOW PROFILE Summer tires, wranglers and broncos have High profile offroad proven tires, The urus isn’t body on frame, the unibody kills the offroad capability.

Much better looking 🤣
OMG got to love that northern english accent from Paddy ,) "... de ultimet fam'li ka yu sae..." :DDDD
Big fast blingy SUVs are just a big look at me kind of status sybol that are rarely driven fast and guzzle fuel even driving slowly, but dont forget the days when all SUVs were slow and clumsy and handled like a bouncy castle, and we begged for a fast one, now we have loads to chose from but still complain.
Now bring on the real wagon battle RS6 Avant vs. the current king E63S Estate
Did he just call an RS6 boring?!
Compared to a m5 or an e63s it is
@@gockelxxxxxl9584 It actually looks both on the exterior and in the interior WAY better than its rivals. Combine that with a superior four wheel drive system and you get the ultimate family car. And in case you want more power, you can simply throw a mapping on it and you gain around 200 extra hp. No reason to pick the other boring picks, at least in this category.
If it was between the M3, RS4 and the C63 S, i'd go for the M3 for insane driving and the C 63 for a truly sportier sensation. But, in the category mentioned above, the RS6 is the coolest choice by far.
@@GutsDovakjin the exterior of the RS6 is really nice but I like the m5 more. But I think Audis interior just sucks. They are just using too much touchscreens. And Quadro is nice but it only has an advantage in wet and snow. In normal conditions the E63S and M5 are just winning in straight line and both are better around corners than the RS6.
Shmeh... Not top gear without the old crew... I’ve heard it called bottom gear.
I like that 👍
Yes
