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. The TTRS, shedding weight with a stripped interior and upgraded components, clocks in at low nine-second quarter-mile times, proving its mettle in the world of high-performance cars.
As the race unfolds, it becomes a battle of innovation and tradition, with the Lucid Air Sapphire showcasing the future of electric performance and the Audi TTRS representing the raw, petrol-powered adrenaline rush. Both cars impress with their unique strengths, from the Lucid's engineering precision to the Audi's drag racing prowess. In a thrilling showdown, these automotive marvels push the limits of speed and power, leaving enthusiasts on the edge of their seats as they witness the clash of these automotive giants.
