New Lambo Sterrato v Porsche 911 Dakar: DRAG RACE

It's time for 2 amazing off-roading to go head-to-head … On tarmac?!

We've lastly got our hands on the Lamborghini Huracan , and it's lining up for a drag race against the 911 Dakar!

So let's see how these two compare. Beginning with the , it's based upon the original Huracan, so it comes geared up with the exact same 5.2-litre naturally-aspirated V10, which in this circumstances can produce 610hp and 560Nm. Power is sent out to all four wheels by means of a 7-speed automatic gearbox, and it tips the scales at 1,470 kg (nevertheless, this is the dry weight – we believe the real weight is more detailed to 1,600 kg!).

But obviously, being an off-roading supercar, there are a couple of more modifications over the typical Huracan! It also includes a load of body cladding, off-roading tires, along with raised suspension.

Next up we have the . It's powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo flat-six which can put down 480hp and 570Nm. Power is sent out to all four wheels through an 8-speed PDK gearbox, and it weighs in at 1,605 kg. Similar to the , it's also fitted with appropriate off-roading tires.

So the Lambo has more power, but will that be enough to beat Porsche's amazing launch control system? There's just one method to discover for sure … LET'S RACE!

      @David yeah you are right but to be honest if you can afford the car a bit of paint shouldn’t be too much of a hassle

      @David most likely the carbon fibre and plastic bits would fall off first

      Close call because it looks like it all depends on surface they are and the car setup !
      V10 sounds much better though than that flat 6.. great job from Matt..

    It’s crazy that Lamborghini & Porsche are making off road versions of their super cars & more track focused versions of their SUVs.

      The SUV’s they make are way too big and heavy to go off-roading.

    I am looking forward to a Sterrato review (maybe in the mud) if Lamborghini will allow. And also like everyone has also mentioned; an off road drag race but not on the the track you use to test obviously. Wow! I really didn’t expect this after what was an awesome Saturday Drag Race! Looking forward to seeing what other crazy and unexpected drag races you have coming soon…

    Love rally/mixed surface stuff! Would be awesome to see dirt surface laps or drag races! Only have dirt tracks other than drag strips near me anyway lol (not that id ever have one of these, but maybe something 1/100th the price lol)

    That was once again a great, exciting, competent presentation of two dream cars. By the way, giving the 911 a turbo was a wonderful idea. Maybe Porsche will think about it. I’m really looking forward to the off-road comparison. A question for the team: How about a comparison test of classics from the 1960s, for example: VW Type 3, Alfa-Romeo Giulia, Renault 8, BMW 1500, Citroën Ami 6, Peugeot 404, Ford Capri/Taunus. Have a nice time everyone 🖖
