BMW i7 v Porsche Taycan Turbo S v Mercedes AMG EQS: DRAG RACE

How does this sound: the most effective electrical German saloon and trucks readily available in the UK – in a drag race!

Mat's behind the wheel of the 53. With 658hp and 950Nm of torque it's certainly adept – however it's heavy though, weighing nearly 2600kg. And it's the most costly vehicle here, costing more than ₤ 161,000.

Next up we have Yianni in the Turbo S. It has 761hp – almost 100hp more than the – and 1050Nm of torque. It's lighter too – at 'only' 2300kg. Oh, and it costs ₤ 142,000.

Finally, we have the BMW 50. It has 544hp, 745Nm of torque and weighs 2600kg. It's the most affordable vehicle here however, costing ₤ 110,000.

So what do you believe? Easy win for the Porsche? Could the EQS nab it or could even the BMW sneak up for the win? Only one way to learn – LET'S RACE!

      @Luca a.k.a. Slazer 760? Wow. Thats on par with even NASCAR Stock Cars from 2010s. Gen 5 and 6 NASCAR cars can have 840.

    This has to be one of carwow’s best all E-drag race videos yet. I saw the Lucid Air in your shorts recently, surely a Lucid vs Plaid drag race is on the cards. Thank you for a lovely Saturday Drag Race! 🙏

      @PrInzzx.  electric cars will go down as one of the worst trends ever. Theres no proper way to recycle the batteries as of now, so they do as much, if not more, harm to the eco system. Touch screens in cars are unnecessary and dangerous. And it will be a matter of time when cars will be like phones. You need to pay more for a subscription service or upgrades to the infotainment system. If you dont upgrade, the company will make sure the old OS is laggy and slow. They’re not as good handling and breaking either. People just see the 0 to 60 times and let that be the clear deciding factor in to why evs are the best. Fossil fuel will run out eventually, tho. So there’s that.

    One of the funniest episodes ever! Between the 20 different races, Matt just taunting Sam w/ the gapping run on sentence, the push up contest, & Yanni’s potty break…by far the best episode 😂😂😂

      That’s because like Yianni said “they were only half press-ups”. Oh and Sam used to be an MMA fighter so he should be able to do it easy

    If these three started their own show I think they will do really good. They have comedy, talent, and a professional driver. They complement each other’s talent.
