In a clash of automotive titans, carwow staged a showdown between the rugged Hummer H2 and the plucky Suzuki Jimny. The Hummer, a behemoth with a 6.2L V8 engine churning out 398 horsepower, faced off against the pint-sized Jimny, armed with a modest 1.5L 4-cylinder engine delivering 101 horsepower. With the Jimny costing a mere £22,000 compared to the Hummer's hefty £45,000 price tag, the stage was set for a classic David versus Goliath battle on the drag strip.

As the race unfolded, the Jimny defied expectations by surging ahead at the start, leaving the Hummer in its dust. However, the Hummer's raw power eventually kicked in, allowing it to overtake the Jimny and clinch victory in the standing quarter-mile race. Despite its lower price and engine size, the Jimny put up a commendable fight, showcasing its agility and spirited performance on the track.

In a subsequent rolling race from second gear at 30 mph to the half-mile mark, both vehicles struggled to reach high speeds, highlighting the Hummer's surprising lack of advantage over the Jimny in this unconventional showdown. The brake test that followed revealed a stark difference in stopping distances, with the Jimny outperforming the Hummer by halving the distance required to come to a halt from 60 mph. This unexpected outcome underscored the Jimny's efficiency and nimbleness, proving that sometimes, size isn't everything in the world of automotive performance.
