Drag race: Range Rover Sport SVR vs BTRC MAN Racing Truck

The Range Rover Sport SVR is one of those cars that’s hard to comprehend. It’s a true heavyweight at 2335kg, but will do 0-62mph in a frankly ridiculous 4.7sec. Subscribe now: http://smarturl.it/autocar

What’s even harder to believe is how uncompromising it is. It has all the attributes you expect from a Range Rover: the commanding driving position, a luxurious interior, practical cabin, brilliant ride, but the SVR turns performance up to 12.

With a supercharged 542bhp, 5.0-litre V8 engine and a raft of mechanical and dynamic changes to accompany the extra horsepower, it is an absolute beast.

So what other heavyweights can we line this up against to test its mettle?

With 1100bhp and 4100lb ft of torque, Dave Jenkins’ MAN TGX D26 five-tonne racing truck might just do the business.
