High-performance family cars are available in a variety of shapes and sizes. Yes, crossovers dominate the market, but not everyone wants a high-riding vehicle. Those who don’t can opt for something like the BMW M3 Touring or the Audi RS4 Avant, which were pitted against each other in a recent drag racing video.
The BMW has a power advantage in this competition. The M3 features the automaker’s twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine. It produces 510 horsepower and 479 pound-feet (650 Newton-meters) of torque, which the automaker routes to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
