Default Which is faster?

Which is faster on the highway? 2019 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T or the 2019 Audi A3?

The A3 is about a full second quicker in the 1/4 mile then the sonata. Even from a roll I don’t see the sonata hanging with the A3.

Even better, one of the top of the line Genesis tried to stop light drag with me - he made big RWD tire smoke leaving the line, but I could barely see it in my rearview mirror lol (Stage II S3). That said, Hyundai is making good cars these days, and even pilfered one of the top Audi designers, and its really starting to show in the product.

Was it a Genesis G90? Nice car, but it was an unfair drag, should have been G90 vs A8

Is this some kind of trick question? I'm guessing they can both exceed the legal speed limit, sooooooooo. just joking. :P

Don't rely on the forum to make your decision, drive them both and decide for yourself. Your the one who has to live with the choice. If this is some kind of my car vs. your car thing, just go out there and "figure it out" within the legal limits of course.

lol..

I'm not sure what it was.. I wasn't racing the guy, just had done some tweaks and was trying out launch control at the light. When he heard the launch control kick in, he nailed it. Made some impressive tire smoke, but you know.... Quattro goes a long way. Gonna get some timed 0-60 and see what I get. I'd like a little smaller diameter tires to get better off the line gear ratio....
