Fastest Van DRAG RACE: Ford v VW v Peugeot

It’s time for an almighty VAN DRAG RACE!

We’ve got Mat in the all-new Ford Transit, and he’s about to face off against a VW Transporter and a Peugeot Expert!

So let’s see how the three compare. Starting with the Transit, it’s powered by a 2-litre 4-cylinder diesel engine that produces 170hp and 360Nm of torque. Power is sent to the front wheels via an 8-speed auto, and the Transit is both the heaviest and most expensive van here, coming in at 2,200kg and £32,000 respectively.

Alongside it, we have the Transporter. It’s also equipped with a 2-litre 4-cylinder diesel, although in this case, it puts down 204hp and 450Nm. It’s fitted with a 7-speed automatic gearbox that sends power to the front wheels, and it weighs in at 2,005kg. As new, it costs around £28,000.

Then finally we have the Peugeot. Once again it comes fitted with a 2-litre 4-cylinder diesel, and this produces 180hp and 400Nm. It’s equipped with a 6-speed automatic gearbox that powers the front wheels, and it weighs in at just 1,657kg. It’s also the cheapest van here, costing around £23,000.

So will the more powerful VW walk it? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

As a van driver myself, I can confirm these tests were very, very accurate!

FUN FACT: that VW transporter has the EXACT same engine AND gearbox as ANY Audi with the “40 TDI” engine AKA A4, A5, A6, A7, Q5 etc.😂

What a time to be alive.

Vans having as much or more power than the typical family sedan

And still weigh less than the new M5

It's crazy how you can put some leather seats in something like this, make the interior feel a little bit nicer, then suddenly, you get something like a Mercedes V Class and somehow people are happy to pay 75k+ for one

Finally, a drag race I will hopefully be able afford to one day😂

[machspeed]

Honestly, I absolutely love videos like this. They’re sometimes more fun to watch than the super car races. Funny how these vans are completing the quarter mile as quick as some of the muscle cars of the 70s lmao
