In this exhilarating episode from the carwow channel, we witness a clash of automotive titans as the ferocious Dodge Challenger Superstock, the mighty BMW M3 Touring Competition, and the audacious Brabus Smart #One Family electric car go head-to-head in a no-holds-barred drag race. The Dodge Challenger, with its monstrous 820 horsepower 6.2L Supercharged V8 engine, is a force to be reckoned with. This beast of a machine is purpose-built for drag racing, boasting a rear-wheel drive setup and an 8-speed automatic gearbox with launch control. Weighing in at a hefty 2 tons and with a price tag of £120,000, this Challenger is a rare and formidable sight on UK roads.

But don't underestimate the BMW M3 Touring Competition. With its turbocharged 3.0L straight-six engine churning out 510 horsepower, this all-wheel drive beast is ready to take on the Challenger. Sam, the driver of the M3, decides to unleash the full power of the rear wheels by decoupling the front axle, leaving him to wrestle with the raw power and manage the unruly beast. Priced at £86,570 and weighing 1865 kg, the M3 is a force to be reckoned with.

And then we have the wildcard, the Brabus Smart #One Family electric car. This little pocket rocket may seem out of place among the heavyweights, but with electric motors on both axles, it boasts all-wheel drive capabilities. With 428 horsepower and a torque of 584 Nm, this pint-sized powerhouse weighs in at 1.9 tons and costs £44,000. While it may lack the brute force of its rivals, its four-wheel drive setup gives it an advantage in traction.

The race is on, and the Challenger roars off the line, leaving the others in its wake. But the M3, with its rear-wheel drive prowess, fights back, and for a moment, it seems like it might just edge ahead. However, the Challenger's sheer power and weight eventually prove too much for the M3 to handle. As for the Smart #One, it puts up a valiant fight, but ultimately falls short against its more powerful adversaries.

In the end, the Dodge Challenger emerges victorious, showcasing its dominance in the straight-line drag race. However, the BMW M3 and the Brabus Smart #One put up a commendable fight, proving that power isn't everything. It's a thrilling showdown that leaves us eagerly anticipating the next battle between these automotive giants.
