Untitled 81

What’s faster, a Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG tuned to deliver 850 hp or a C6-generation Corvette ZR1 also producing 850 hp?

Well the two recently went head-to-head at the Unlim 500+ drag races in Russia with the E63 AMG just coming out on top thanks predominantly to its 4Matic all-wheel drive system and fast shifting transmission.

It manages to complete the standing kilometre in a mere 19.795 seconds at 275 km/h while the Corvette ZR1 takes 20.946 seconds to reach the same mark at 266 km/h.
