It's time for a Germany vs USA face-off!

We've got Mat in the incredible -AMG , and it's taking on the absolutely huge ! So, can German power take down American power? Let's have a look at the statistics.

The is powered by a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that produces 585hp and 850Nm of torque. Power is sent out to all 4 wheels via a 9-speed automatic transmission, and it pointers the scales at 2,550 kg. As new, it costs around ₤ 185,000.

Next up, we have the F-150 . It's packing a 5.2-litre supercharged V8 that develops 720hp and 868Nm. Power is sent out to all four wheels through a 10-speed vehicle, and it tips the scales at 2,699 kg. If you're seeking to purchase one in the UK, it'll cost around ₤ 168,000.

So will the extra weight prove to be the undoing of the F-150? There's only one method to find out … LET'S RACE!

Mat's deal of the day:.

American Automobile Drag Race:.

Thanks to everyone who assisted establish this race:.

      @carwaw and little Mat Watson you are such liars promoting German brands, almost any fool knows that it’s about the aerodynamic coefficient, the weight/HP ratio, the gearbox, the type of tire you put the power on the road and many other factors! For example in this case when you started at the same time it beat the Ford even at a disadvantage with offroad tires, and then you won with your faster reaction time. The conclusion Raptor R is faster and more agile at all times than G Wagon confirms Hagerty and many other specialists and this is how Carwaw loses its subscribers! 🧠🤏🤫🤭

    It’s probably all down tyres: after the first drag the off-road tyres of the raptor became too hot and got Les and less grip. Meanwhile the high performance road tyres of the AMG got more gip once they got some heat…
