You’ve probably heard the challenge to “drag your car out of the garage and race me!” and this was the real deal between a Mercedes Benz C63 AMG and a BMW Active Hybrid 5. Keep your guesses coming or read on to discover the winner of this drag race.
2009 Mercedes Benz AMG C63
The Mercedes C-class continues to impress with its timeless elegance and impressive performance. This 2009 model was in full-bolt-on condition, delivering maximum power from its 6.2-liter AMG engine. With a sport 7-speed transmission and a boastful V-8 engine, its performance in the drag race was unmatched. Despite not having great mileage, the Mercedes Benz AMG C63 is known for its efficient powertrain, high-tech cabin, and straight-line speed with nimble maneuvering.
2015 BMW Active Hybrid 5
This BMW featured a sleek sedan-styled body with rear-wheel drive and impressive performance, effective road handling, and the best fuel economy. However, its battery pack reduces the boot space, making it less practical for family travels. It had a 3-liter turbocharged, inline 6-cylinder engine mated with an electric motor producing 335HP and reaching 0 to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds, making it one of the most efficient engines.
Drag Race Safety
Drag races are undoubtedly a stunt, and for that, you need to be fully prepared for any unforeseen conditions. To ensure safety, this race was held in a closed environment with no pedestrians or normal drivers, and the drivers were equipped with safety gear. Both cars were also checked for their tires, batteries, and physical equipment beforehand.
Winners of Drag Race
The first attempt was won by the BMW Active Hybrid 5, while the next attempt was won by the Mercedes C-class AMG, ultimately ending the race in a friendly manner.
