If you want a luxurious family car that provides the type of performance you’d expect from a supercar, the Lamborghini Urus and Audi RS6 Avant are two of the finest options available.
Top Gear put the two against each other during the TV show’s 29th season that aired in late 2020. Driving the RS6 Avant was Chris Harris while Paddy McGuinness was piloting the Urus. The review has since been re-posted to YouTube.

To see which is better, the hosts set up a short handling course designed to simulate the drive from home to school. Harris managed to set a best time of 1:20.28 with the Audi, while McGuinness completed the course in 1:24.6 in the Lamborghini, although some of the discrepancy between the two could be chalked up to the driving skills of the pair.
As a matter of fact, The Stig drove both the Urus and RS6 Avant around the show’s test track during the same episode. He set a best time of 1:21.7 in the Lamborghini and a 1:21.9 in the Audi, proving just how well matched these two are.
If we had to choose between the two, we’d probably opt for the Audi because of its more restrained styling, cheaper price tag, and lower center of gravity. Which would you rather own?
