Instant Classic Drag Battle: Lamborghini Versus CLS63 AMG

CLS63 vs Lamborghini Aventador

The recipe for a great video is a pretty simple one. Take two fast and exciting cars, point them the same direction, and then hit the loud pedal. The real secret here is getting two cars that seem very different and increasing the distance. It all adds up to an amazing video. To see how these ingredients come together, take a look at the video below that features a CLS63 AMG and a Lamborghini Aventador.

The Mercedes has seen a slight tune that brings its power up to 750, a touch more than the Lambo’s 700. Thanks to the hefty weight of the Mercedes, the power difference should be all but negated.

Also, this race is a full-length one-kilometer run.

As soon as the lights turn out, both cars rocket off the line. The Mercedes has a better reaction time, but the Lamborghini takes the lead in the 60-ft times. I won’t spoil the end for you guys, but I will tell you that at the ¼ mile, there is only .1 seconds between the two racers. So click that play button and watch the mayhem unfold.
