Ford Escape SE v Toyota RAV4 | DRAG RACE

Who doesn't love drag races! Ford and Toyota have tons of competing vehicles and the Ford Escape and the Toyota RAV4 go head to head in tons of scenarios, but not many people have set them up in a drag race before. Well I did and this the results were in a way unexpected. These are the specs of each car:
Ford Escape SE:
Engine: 1.5L Ecoboost i3
- 181 HP
- 190 lbft
Transmission: 8 Speed Automatic
Front Wheel Drive
Toyota RAV4
Engine: 2.5L NA i4
- 203 HP
- 184 lbft
Transmission: 8 Speed Automatic
Front Wheel Drive

If sport mode is all he thinks you can do, then he don't know Rav4 He needs to learn on how to drive the Rav4

[@JohnDiMartino]

RAV4 is also NA and the 2.5 has been an excellent engine,the ecoboost 1.5 is new in 3 cyl form but the previous 4 cylinder ecoboost 1.5,1.6, and 2.0 ecoboost engines were noted for coolant intrusion and for costing owners 8-10k just out of powertrain warranty for a new short block. Sorry but the Toyota is the better vehicle,and I’m a Ford fan.

[@toddberner9198]

Toyota are bullet proof against anything

[@goldengears1]

wish you would have used the escape's 2.0L 4cyl engine instead.

[@JohnDiMartino]

Wouldn’t matter it would still lose 240 hp vs 300 hp.

[@jacyedwards4452]

@@JohnDiMartino It actually should be very close.. same 0-60 time as the Prime

[@zhongxina2793]

​@@JohnDiMartinost line is 10 grand cheaper and with 200 dollar tuner it would be more than 300 easily

[@joshgutierrez7380]

Do y’all know how to brake torque?

[@kingkelly1281]

Can you do rav4 vs crv

[@billphil8235]

Was is the ford onand off the gas

[@greglopez8616]

What’s crazy my 21 Ford Escape SE could beat plenty of v8 he don’t even know how to launch

[@shaanidesi]

You should race it with edge ST

[@killmonger6972]

Rav 4 prime will smoke that edge st

[@anoop4243]

Why not with a Mach E crossover then😉? It'll smoke that Rav4 Prime

[@joeyg4924]

The Ford would most likely break down 😂

[@jacyedwards4452]

@@killmonger6972 I have an edge ST and can tell you that it will walk a prime completely stock. With a tune its not even a race. Early reviews have the edge at 6 seconds or so 0-60 but they seem to have tested with the 1000 mile break in boost limit. There are edges breaking into the 13s with no mods and sub 5.6 second 0-60.

[@iso2575]

bad comparison is not the 2.0 turbo engine exhaust

[@toddberner9198]

There's more low end torque on the ecoboost engine

[@prodkenny302]

me and my coworker reenacted this at a stoplight and for some reason his escape pulled off

[@storm-strike]

Well duh, this video was so inaccurate. He should have tested the ecoboost.

[@breaks2772]

Nice, better than the new ford escape, it is the 2010 Ford Escaoe 3.0 4WD Limited V6 engine.

[@jdoyle4811]

2010 V6 was 240 HP but the 2020 Ford Escape 2.0 4 cylinder packs 250 HP with 8 speed automatic transmission

[@zajdabneeg]

Better than the new rav4 prime 2013 rav4 limited awd v6. 270 hp. Them v6 days are gone but fun to drive

[@kelvinguevara6785]

If you do the test with the Rav4 when it came out with a 6-cylinder engine, not even the four-cylinder turbo could reach it.

[@GodsOfWar666]

Rav 4 is for soccer moms, so it will lose every time

[@GyroPyro121212]

The current RAV4 Prime (plug in hybrid) is faster than the V6 was and far more efficient. It will beat the Escape 2.0 from 0-60 and through the 1/4 mile by 0.3 seconds.

[@MikePowlas]

@@GodsOfWar666 We see you know nothing about Rav4's

Same thing would happen when you race a gas engine RAV4 against the Bronco Sport with the basline 3 cylinder engine.
