Matt (from Car Wow) is in the Lotus Eletre R. This thing uses an electric motor on each axle to generate the equivalent of 903hp and 726 lb.-ft. of torque. At a curb weight of 5,850-pounds, this heavyweight can blow through the standing quarter mile in 10.3-seconds and accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 2.7-seconds. At a cost of $155K the Eletre R is a bit of a bargain when compared to the $300K Urus.
In the opposite lane is the stunning Lamborghini Urus. Under the hood is an all-aluminum (block and heads) twin turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine. No electric motors here; this beauty is full-on internal combustion mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. Tipping the scale at 4,986-pounds, the all-wheel drive Urus can produce 657hp and 627 lb.-ft. of torque. This Italian SUV can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3-seconds flat and turn the quarter mile in 11.2-seconds @ 122 mph.
It’s time to get these two pigs on the pavement and let them eat.
