Can I beat a V12 Ferrari in a Kia?

Change your vehicle with Carwow:

How's this for a drag race line-up you didn't anticipate to see today!

We've got our hands on a Ferrari Purosangue, and it's taking on … A Kia ?!

However this is no common Kia – it's the new Kia EV6 GT! The concern is, does it have a possibility versus a Ferrari? Let's check out the statistics …

Beginning with the Kia, it's powered by 2 electrical motors, and they combine to produce 641hp & 770Nm. It weighs in at 2,200 kg, and it's a lot less expensive than the Ferrari, costing just ₤ 60,000.

Up next is the Purosangue. It's powered by a 6.5-litre NA V12, and this develops 725hp and 716Nm. This power is sent to all 4 wheels through an 8-speed car, and it's a little lighter than the Kia, at 2,150 kg. As new, it costs around ₤ 313,000!

So what do you believe – can a Kia really beat a Ferrari ?! There's only one method to discover for sure … LET'S RACE!

Mat's choice on among these cars and trucks:

Thanks to @tomi-automobile for helping to establish this race!

      The performance of a car isn’t measured on 1/4 mile acceleration only. And this is KIA’s best performing car, while the Ferrari is just a luxury car, not a performance car; it takes the same role as a Rolls-Royce for example.

      They’re already blindedfolded decades ago to the fact that high speed rail/trains using electric motors instead of being powered with a thousand-cylinder superengine.

      They just caught offguard recently when someone decided to downsize it and replace the steel wheels with rubber.

    Electric cars with instant torque and no gear changes always have such an advantage. Rolling race was better though 😂 This was a fun day, I’ve sold that Purosangue now 😅😅😅😅

      Not really yall acting like it’s hard to make a fast EV in a straight line. Every manufacturer has already proven u can put 1000s of HP in one. Now a Kia gas engine or even hybrid vs a Ferrari would be impressive. That said the Ferrari still won 2/3 carwow test.
