We’ve got our hands on the British Land Rover Defender OCTA, the German BMW X5M Competition, the Italian Ferrari Purosangue, and the Chinese Zeekr 8X Yaoying! You may not have heard of the Zeekr, but we think it could easily be a good match for the other cars in this line-up! So let’s check out the stats… The Ferrari is powered by a 6.5-litre naturally-aspirated V12 that pumps out 725hp and 716Nm. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed auto gearbox, and it weighs in at 2,033kg. It’s easily the most expensive car here, with the starting price coming in at £313,000. Then we have the BMW. There’s a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 under the bonnet, and this puts down 625hp and 750Nm. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed torque converter, and it tips the scales at 2,400kg. It’s a whole lot cheaper than the Ferrari, costing £137,330. In Britain’s corner, we have the Defender OCTA. You’ll find the same BMW engine under the bonnet as in the X5M, but here it produces 635hp and 800Nm. It has the same gearbox, it weighs in at 2,510kg, and it costs just under £150,000. Then, finally, we have the Zeekr. Under the bonnet, it only has a 2-litre turbo 4-cylinder, but it has a secret up its sleeve - 3 electric motors! When they all work in tandem, it puts down a colossal 1,400hp and 1,410Nm! However, it’s easily the heaviest here, at 2,820kg, but it’s incredibly cheap - it only costs around £54,000!! So will this all-new Chinese EV walk it? There’s only one way to find out for sure - LET’S RACE! BMW v Porsche v AMG: https://bit.ly/Carwow-Drag-0205

A 1400BHP SUV for £55K is Crazy.
Matt finding out random buttons is the funniest thing
Gotta say, that was 10/10 trolling by Mat.
Pause the video for stats is back everybody !!
A 10.6 second quarter mile, long range, luxury SUV for just 56K is off the world
That WTF when he saw Chinese car was Diabolical 😂😂😂😂😂
The Chinese keep showing us technologies doesn't have to be expensive
That defender had zero chances from the very beginning. Should've been an Urus or a Cayenne Turbo S instead.
10.6 sec for an SUV is crazy business 😳
Wooh.That button really unleashed all the 1400hp. But it was funny when matt discovered it haha.
An Italian, a German, and a Brit found out the final form of a Chinese
That Zeekr is possessed by a demon when he switched the modes
FYI - Zeeker’s parents is Geely, the parent company of Volvo, Polestar, Lotus, London EV Company (Black Cab), Proton (Malaysia), 50% equity holdings in SMART, 10% in Mercedes and 17% in Aston Martin !!!!!
On my way to zeekr dealer now
I knew it, the zeekr's behaviour was so strange untill Matt pressed the button😂🤣
I knew Chinese was holding back power since the first race mat lift off the pedal
Cutting Sam off at the end cracked me up so much 🤣
Good News is, This Rocket is coming to Australia.
LoL - "hey what is **THIS** little plastic button down here?" Page 25 of the Owner's Manual, in Chinese, says, "In honor of Confucius' Be Humble teaching, do not activate until the world is ready for Ferrari bankruptcy."
😂You can clearly see the Zeeker's suspension drop when Matt stops accelerating
