Porsche 918 Spyder Drag Races A Rallycross Car

Carwow’s got a new drag race for us and this time it’s between a Porsche 918 hypercar against a Red Bull WRX Rallycross car.

The Porsche boasts a 4.6-litre naturally-aspirated V8, paired with two electric motors, delivering a combined 887hp and 1,280Nm of torque! Weighing in at 1,674kg, this modern-day Porsche icon now demands seven figures plus if you want to own one.

On the other side, we have the WRX rallycross car, based on a Peugeot 208 rally car, featuring a 2-litre turbocharged engine generating 620hp. All that power is distributed to the four wheels.

While the WRX will likely sprint off the line, the question remains: can it outrun the 918 over the quarter-mile? Watch the video to find out!
