This latest video from Autocar sees cuddly Steve Sutcliffe head to the track to find out if Audi’s pocket rocket, the A1 quattro, has the chops to keep pace with the Nissan GT-R.

The A1 is propelled by the company’s delightful 2.0 TFSI engine, which develops 188 kW (256 hp) and 350 Nm of torque, while its Japanese rival uses a 3.8-litre twin-turbo V6 to produce 404 kW (542 hp) and 632 Nm and features the weight-saving Track Pack.

So, it should be a walk in the park for Godzilla, no?
