how is this compared to PS4 "wipeout"?

They appear similar at first glance but are really two totally different types of experiences. Redout is MUCH faster at higher speed classes, with absolutely insane track designs and an enormous amount of content (when you include the DLC). Redout also has floatier handling than Wipeout and prioritizes track memorization, since the handling isn't so responsive that you can easily correct mistakes. Redout also has no true weapons, only a couple of powerups that can drain enemy boost and such.

Wipeout is a much slower game, with shorter, tighter tracks that are far less inventive in terms of layout and features. They feel more grounded in a real-life future though and require lots of technical execution to navigate without crashing. Also, Wipeout is heavily weapon-based and is much more about its ship vs ship combat in addition to racing.

I've played a lot of both games and greatly prefer Redout due to its much wilder tracks, vehicle handling, greater sense of speed and superior soundtrack. Wipeout is still good but honestly I'd probably never go back to it after playing Redout.

There's something I miss when I play Redout. Not sure if it is Wipeouts handling or the more narrow technical tracks. Not sure, but still a very good game regardless.

I played both and prefer Wipeout HD Collection on PS4 to Redout on PC.
