This drag race would be great with the new i7 m70. Great video!

[@hankmoody7521]

Isn't the BMW i7 listed as "xDrive60"? It also should only have 536hp while having 544PS. At 745Nm of torque it's def at a disadvantage compared to the other two cars. The new i7 M70 is now also listed at BMW UK and with 1100Nm is able to start a bit more "agile" (3.7 vs 4.7sec 0-100kph)! Also totally agree with Mat, the BMW, while controversial, has certainly the most present on the road. Mercedes has comletely lost its way design-wise.

[@rg6982]

[@hankmoody7521]

The EQS is faster than i expected. I expected it to get beat by a mile vs the Taycan. Having driven the regular EQE and EQS they are really meant for comfort and not for speed

Right but on a dry road would be different story.

[@timmie426]

@@MaticTheProto no they do not feel slow. I only feel that they filtered out the direct response on the accelerator pedal in the regular versions, maybe for comfort?
