BMW X3 M40i vs Volvo XC60 Polestar vs Audi Q5e: DRAG RACE

It's time for an SUV drag race - but with a new school vs old school flavour! Representing the new, we have the Volvo XC60 Polestar and Audi Q5e! The Volvo is definitely the better of the two, with a 2-litre turbo engine that combines with an electric motor, it can put down 405hp and 675Nm of torque! As for the old school, we have the BMW X3 M40i! With its straight-six 3-litre turbo, it can produce 354hp and 500Nm of torque! So will the newer hybrids have what it takes to bring down the M40i? There's only one way to find out... LET'S RACE!

Matt before being overtaken
*"Everyone break"*

[samstraus]

That X3 is no joke also so fun to drive.

That BMW motor seems a little underrated. Solid performer

Yannie in his Urus vs the X6M, Cayenne Turbo Coupe and RSQ8!! 🙏

“This picks up so well “, we all know Matt, if it didn’t picked up well it must have been your twin driving the car

Just got the BMW X3 M40i and it is absolutely SPECTACULAR! It's like driving a sports car, but it's an SUV. Not to mention that it is absolutely gorgeous inside and out. It beats these overpriced electric vehicles in every way.

We want to see the X3 M40i more in drag races

Rolling race, Matt: everyone brake (before the Audi also overtakes me)

[paulmichael]

When matts loosing “guys I am calling it off now” 😂😂😂

[jordanbozukov]

Polestar was ahead most of the time in rolling race so he won 1 point but when bmw was ahead most of the time you gave it to Audi. What is this logic Matt??

[nollisveyron]

The new BMW M40i's are FLYING tho

I‘m just here to spread my love for BMW‘s B58 Engine 🥰

[abubakrbhyat]

The volvo did rather well considering its more of a luxury car and undoubtedly has more security features than the other two

[AhmadHassan-ukff]

Mat in every race:
"That was CLOSE"

[RomaneMaticaliseGordon]

I just love how every BMW in the lineup is just murdering the competition in terms of speed

[HH-uviw]

Even the cars are social distancing at the start line

[Zunimassa]

When they typed in "Carwow" and Carol Baskin popped up, that made me giggle a bit.
