    This is definitely a petrol vs electric drag race you weren’t expecting to see today!
    We’ve got Mark McCann in his Lamborghini Aventador SVJ, and he’s lining up against Mat in a Kia EV6!
    This is no normal EV6, though, it’s the EV6 GT! As a result, this EV is equipped with two electric motors that can produce an incredible 585hp and 740Nm of torque! It’s pretty heavy though, with its 77kWh battery pack helping it tip the scales at 2,125kg! However, it’s still relatively cheap, coming in at £63,000.
    As for the Lambo, well it’s a whole lot more expensive, costing around £380,000! Naturally, though, it’s packed full of power, with its 6.5-litre V12 good for 770hp and 720Nm. It’s much lighter than the Kia, too, coming in at 1,525kg.
    Think it’ll be a walkover for the Lambo? Well, perhaps Mat has a trick up his sleeve! There’s only one way to find out what it is, though… LET’S RACE!

    I just got my Kia ev6 gt last week…traded my 2018 Audi a4 for it and i must say im in love with the car the ride quality is amazing the interior and features are top notch i do not have any form of buyers regret at all! The only downside are the lines at the charge station then having to charge for 30 mins! But they gave me 3 years free charging. I guess the only downside to the car itself are the fact that the seats are manual and not electric I mean a 60k price tag you would think they would be but! I mean with everything else the car offers you definitely will not care about having to adjust the seat manually

      The trouble is with EV's when you put your foot down the range goes from 300 miles to 30 miles then you have to spend 30 minutes sat drinking a Costa fortune coffee waiting for the required charge to get home . (assuming the F**king chargers aren't occupied or F**ked up !!). Tried them and got rid in the UK we don't have the infrastructure (we can't even maintain Grid capacity at peak times FFS !! so how are we all going electric!!. Total bollocks !!. And as for this total Earthshot crap prize , it has cost more in private jet fuel and securtity than what the prize winners are getting. It's like putting a sticky plaster over a severed head !!.,

      @@colingregson8653 you do realize high end gas cars do not have good range either right? It's only been recently in the last few years that automakers have been forced due to laws and regulations to focus on fuel economy. most older cars do not have amazing fuel economy. EVs just need time as well for the battery technology to show the potential. Lucid is already giving us commercial cars with that ability and we've seen researching changing Tesla's battery pack to new technology they've been working on getting past 800 range. The reason why charging feels bad is because in the west companies aren't making enough. Compared to in Korea where the infrastructure is actually decent . GM has already said they're going to do something similar to Tesla and focus on building more charges over the next few years. New EVs will charge 0-80 in under 20 minutes.

    SVJ is just a masterpiece! Sounds insane and looks fantastic! What a car, there will not be cars like this anymore.

      @@mkadc1998 I am certain Aventador replacement will be incredible but it will be hybrid like SF90 but with a V12.

    What’s almost equally impressive as how well the Kia did against the SVJ, is considering it’s essentially the same performance as Audi’s flagship RS EV at half the price…and it’s a family SUV. Lookout Tesla.

    Seems that Lamborghini seems to struggle more with the 3 motor setup but then again that's a extra leg
