In this electrifying episode of Hoonigan, we witness a clash of automotive titans as the Lucid Air Sapphire faces off against the Audi TTRS, with none other than Doug DeMuro in the driver's seat. The Lucid Air Sapphire, a California-based EV marvel, flexes its muscle with an impressive 1234 horsepower and custom Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, designed to balance efficiency and performance on the road. This luxury beast doesn't just pack a punch in power but also offers a range of driving modes, from smooth and luxurious to track-ready aggression.
On the other end of the spectrum, we have the Audi TTRS, a true sleeper with a basic bottom-end build and a Precision 6870 turbo churning out 820 wheel horsepower. This modified machine, equipped with beadlock wheels, Wilwood brake kit, and Mickey Thompson radials, is a force to be reckoned with on the drag strip.
