An Mercedes-Benz X-Class Pickup (W 470) in drag race against a small one Abarth 500? This is exactly what you can see in the following video. The luxury truck based on Nissan Navara was a failure for Mercedes, the tuners have been romping on the loadmaster from Stuttgart since then. Many tuning companies have already remodeled the X-Class and even extremely complex 6 × 6 conversions is there. And there are also tuners who, in addition to the changes to the chassis or the optics, value the Performance and increase performance. And the vehicle has such a tuning from the new video from Daniel Abbot let yourself endure have. The basis is an X-Class of the X350d type, which sends 258 hp (190 kW) and 550 Newton meters of torque to all four wheels in series production. But the heavily tuned copy with lift kit, widebody kit, off-road tires, etc. has been upgraded to 324 hp (239 kW) and 730 Nm torque obtained.
Abarth 595 Competizione meets Mercedes X-Class
And on the other side is the tiny one Abarth Competizione 595 in series condition. In other words, the 1,4-liter turbo engine delivers 180 hp (132 kW) and 250 Nm torque. Compared to the tuned X-Class, this is barely more than half the performance, but this also applies to the weight. Because during the Abarth 1.165 kilograms weighs, it brings the X-Class at around 2.500 kilos. That is to say power to weight ratio is with 7,81 kg / kW (Mercedes) against 6,47 kg / kW (Abarth) not that far apart. Ultimately, the decisive factors are strength, weight, force distribution, traction and much more. Who wins? You can see that in the video.
