[0:03] Come on, Lambo.
[0:05] What will win in a drag race between a
[0:07] Lamborghini Huracan Puffamante with a
[0:09] 5.2 L V10 and some big heavy Chinese SUV
[0:14] with a 2 L turbocharged petrol engine?
[0:17] Well, we're going to find out by racing
[0:18] them over the standing quarter mile. I'm
[0:20] M Watson. You're watching Carw Wow.
[0:25] >> Here we go.
[0:27] 3 2 1
[0:34] >> It's close. Pretty close, actually.
[0:40] It's close, but I've got a better
[0:42] launch.
[0:49] I've got him. Well, even at higher
[0:51] speed, I'm already 180.
[0:57] Got him.
[1:02] >> That's close.
[1:03] >> He was a bit delayed on the line. I was
[1:05] lucky there. I was very lucky. I bet he
[1:07] can go quicker. Well, I had the perfect
[1:09] launch, but I think you might have been
[1:10] a bit delayed. Otherwise, it would have
[1:12] been a lot closer.
[1:13] >> Yeah, actually, I think I can do better.
[1:15] >> Well, I'll tell you what. We're going to
[1:16] do best three out of five. Anyway, but
[1:18] before we get into that, let's do
[1:20] another race first. I'm going to give
[1:22] you the stats on these cars really
[1:23] quick. So, this is a 5.2 L naturally
[1:25] aspirated V10. It's got 640 horsepower,
[1:28] 600 new m of torque, allwheel drive,
[1:30] dual clutch auto, and it weighs about
[1:31] 1.5 tons. That Zika has a 2 L
[1:33] turbocharged petrol engine, which acts
[1:35] as a generator to provide electricity
[1:37] for the three electric motors, which
[1:39] combined have 1,400 horsepower, 1,400
[1:42] new meters of torque. It is heavy
[1:43] though. It weighs in at 2.8 tons. Still,
[1:46] it's cheap. It's about 50 grand in
[1:48] China. Anyway, let's do a rolling race.
[1:50] Comfort mode. Kanan, we've got to go in
[1:52] our comfiest, most relaxed mode.
[1:54] >> So, you go in comfort mode. I'm going in
[1:56] strradda.
[1:57] >> Yeah, but this comfort mode reduces the
[1:59] power huh Matt?
[2:00] >> Well, that sounds like a you problem.
[2:02] Let's race. We're going to race over the
[2:04] half mile. Just get level with me. I'll
[2:05] get the speed up to 50. Cars are in
[2:07] automatic and I'll go 3 2 1 and then say
[2:10] go. 3 2 1 go.
[2:20] Come on, Lambo.
[2:23] Bye-bye.
[2:25] Bye-bye. Ah,
[2:31] Bye-bye.
[2:35] Absolutely hammered him.
[2:40] That is slow. You're up for the win. Oh,
[2:44] Kenan, you got absolutely destroyed.
[2:45] Your big heavy Chinese SUV is no match
[2:48] for this Italian lightweight. Yeah, but
[2:51] I would do much faster with the sport
[2:52] plus.
[2:53] >> Okay. Right. Well, we'll see about that
[2:55] because we are going to do the same race
[2:56] again, but I'm going to be in manual
[2:58] mode and I'm going to be in coarser.
[3:00] >> You can be in sport plus. Do whatever
[3:01] you need to do, my friend. I don't care.
[3:03] >> We'll see how much faster it is in sport
[3:05] plus cuz don't forget this car is now
[3:07] going to be quicker. And his he's got no
[3:11] gears to change. So, it just should be
[3:12] the same. Right. So, here we come. I'm
[3:14] going to go into second gear. 3 2 1 go.
[3:24] Come on. This is so close. Neck and
[3:26] neck. Absolutely at neck and neck
[3:28] acceleration.
[3:34] No, he's coming fast. He's coming fast.
[3:45] Oh, what's happening now? It's neck and
[3:47] neck. I flust the gear change. Wait a
[3:49] minute. 234. 236. Oh.
[3:59] Oh, I just got him on the line. I hit a
[4:01] limiter. I just got him on the line. I
[4:03] was so lucky. I fluffed a gear change
[4:06] and it was odd. Then it's almost like he
[4:08] backed off. What happened? Oh, I think I
[4:10] know. Hey, Kenan. I don't suppose your
[4:13] car has a speed limiter, does it? I'm
[4:15] not sure, but it says from the, you
[4:17] know, public information, it says it's
[4:19] limited to 230. I think I kind of hit
[4:21] some limiter at 237.
[4:23] >> If you hadn't hit that limiter, you
[4:25] would have won because I fluffed a gear
[4:26] change. So, that was a lucky victory for
[4:29] me. However, I'm not going to up
[4:31] next time. I'll meet you back on the
[4:33] start line. We'll see what's what.
[4:35] Right, Keenan. What we're going to do
[4:36] now is a rolling race from about 10
[4:38] miles an hour, first gear over the half
[4:40] mile. And I'm not going to mess up any
[4:42] gear changes. So, get ready. 3, two,
[4:46] one.
[4:52] >> I'm definitely faster in terms of uh
[4:55] power response.
[4:56] >> He's ahead of me. Can I reel him back
[4:58] in?
[5:03] Oh, the pickup. I was too low down in
[5:05] the rev range.
[5:06] >> The initial moment, the reaction from
[5:09] electric motor is really, really
[5:10] amazing.
[5:14] He's going to hit his limiter in a
[5:16] minute, but it's too little too late.
[5:17] I'm gaining now.
[5:26] >> Okay, I won. Woohoo.
[5:29] >> I was just too far down in my rev range,
[5:32] then in first gear, and he's shut off.
[5:34] Doesn't have that problem. Instant
[5:36] torque from his three electric motors.
[5:38] Blime me. 1,400 blumbing Newton meters.
[5:41] Blimey. Blimeiness. Now, if you want to
[5:42] compare these cars stats, here's a
[5:44] table. Just pause the video. Next
[5:47] challenge. I bet you're pleased with
[5:49] that, aren't you?
[5:49] >> Yeah. Yeah. Actually, from the response
[5:51] of this electric motor, it was really
[5:53] insane. I mean, instantaneous.
[5:55] >> I know. But don't forget, we're going to
[5:58] go to the drag race in a second, and
[5:59] I've already won one. You better be
[6:01] prepared. Before that, though, there's
[6:03] another challenge which I think might go
[6:05] in my favor. It's a brake test from 100
[6:07] miles an hour. You ready?
[6:09] >> Let's try.
[6:12] Yeah, I think it's really difficult for
[6:14] me to in a break test to to outperform
[6:16] you. It's almost not possible. That's a
[6:18] supercar math.
[6:19] >> Well, we shall see.
[6:23] That's 100 miles an hour. I get lovely,
[6:25] mate. Now, if you'd rather watch another
[6:26] drag race, the Chinese cars, click on
[6:28] the pop-up banner, scan the QR code.
[6:30] Here comes the clones now.
[6:43] Mate, you must have broken early for
[6:45] sure.
[6:46] >> Yeah, I think slightly earlier.
[6:48] >> Okay, I'll meet you back up there. Let's
[6:49] have another go. Let's do it fairly.
[6:50] Right, I hope that he did break too
[6:52] early because if he wins again, that's
[6:54] going to be humiliating for me. Right,
[6:56] the cones are coming up now. into it in
[6:58] 3 2 1
[7:16] this time is actually spot on.
[7:23] Was close up.
[7:28] Let's do the drag race. This is what
[7:29] it's all about everybody, the drag
[7:31] racing. So, if you're looking for a

[7:49] Okay, let's do this race. Remember, 1
[7:51] nil to me, best three out of five.
[7:53] >> Three, two, one.
[7:59] on the head.
[8:04] >> Oh yeah, I've got him.
[8:12] Yeah, I've got him. I'm slightly slower.
[8:21] Woohoo.
[8:28] Yeah, it totally dropped. He done. He
[8:31] diddly done. There's no way he's going
[8:33] to win the next race. No way. I hope.
[8:36] >> So, I think I'm slightly slower at the
[8:38] at the at the reaction. So, you have to
[8:40] really go 3 to one with the one to to
[8:43] press the acceleration pedal. Otherwise,
[8:45] it's slow for sure.
[8:47] >> Yeah, that's right. So, you need to be
[8:49] on it. I was on it and that's why you
[8:51] got beat, but I'm not sure you'll win
[8:53] anyway. This just seems too fast.
[8:55] >> Yeah, but obviously there is another
[8:57] button I haven't pushed. So that's
[8:59] called boost. So might be faster next
[9:02] time.
[9:02] >> Boost button. E. Well, he thinks it
[9:04] might be faster. We'll find out, won't
[9:06] we? Okay, Kenan. Well, you better hope
[9:08] that your boost button works this time
[9:10] because I've got two. I just need one
[9:13] more. And it's victory to the
[9:15] Lamborghini. And you can take that big
[9:17] heavy lump away from the drag strip.
[9:27] Come on, Lambo.
[9:33] No. Okay.
[9:41] No. No. No. No. No. No. No. Spald on
[9:43] acceleration.
[9:47] I'm reading him in a bit, but I don't
[9:49] think I'm going to get him.
[9:57] That is my best launch yet. I was just a
[10:00] bit delayed. He went before me, but that
[10:01] time was like banging. Oh my goodness.
[10:05] Oh my goodness. Boost worked there,
[10:07] Kenan. I think you went off a little bit
[10:10] earlier than me. I I I could have done
[10:12] better on my launch. The actual launch
[10:14] itself, the way it hooked and went up
[10:15] the runway was great, but my reaction
[10:17] was a bit delay compared to you. This is
[10:19] going to be so close. 2-1 to me. Keenan,
[10:22] you still need to win this one to stay
[10:23] in the game. No pressure.
[10:30] >> No. Again,
[10:40] just ahead of me on the launch. Good
[10:42] launch.
[10:53] I know if I get a better launch, I'll
[10:55] have him. I'm sure I'm getting him. I'm
[10:56] pulling him back in now.
[11:11] Man, it's my fault that there's a delay
[11:14] on this. You lift off the brake and
[11:16] there's a pause then it goes. So trying
[11:18] to time it right is quite tricky. If I
[11:21] time it right though, I don't know which
[11:22] one's going to win. Right. Good news for
[11:24] you, bad news for me. I was a bit behind
[11:26] on the launch means it's two to you, two
[11:29] to me. We're all square. Right, Kanan?
[11:32] This is it. Whichever car wins this race
[11:35] is the overall winner. If we can match
[11:37] the launches side by side, we will
[11:39] genuinely see which is the quickest.
[11:42] Good luck.
[11:44] 2.
[11:48] Closer.
[11:55] Come on.
[11:58] So close. Nice start.
[12:06] Acceleration
[12:14] really neck and neck.
[12:20] I'm just ahead. I'm just going to do it.
[12:26] >> Wow, that was so close. I think we
[12:28] launched it at the exact same time. It
[12:32] was amazing.
[12:33] >> Yeah, I think I last time I couldn't
[12:35] have done better. nor me. I think that's
[12:37] a fair result. These cars are so closely
[12:40] matched, but the Lamborghini just edged
[12:43] it out. Wow. So then, what exactly
[12:45] happened? Well, the Lamborghini just
[12:47] about beat the Zika, but both cars
[12:50] completed the standing quarter mile in
[12:52] 10.6 seconds.
[12:54] Listen, I hope you enjoyed the video. If
[12:55] you did, give it a like. And if you want
[12:57] to suggest some other drag races for us
[12:58] to do, let us know in the comments.
[13:00] Thanks for watching. We'll see you next
[13:02] time.
