Canada’s biggest supercar bust - 70 supercars, dozens of police

Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Porsches, and Corvettes suddenly found themselves surrounded by police and tow trucks on a Canadian highway. What’s peculiar is that many of the drivers claimed there was little proof of wrongdoing, yet several cars were still impounded and drivers had their licenses suspended.

Electric superchargers - how Audi is eliminating turbo lag

The Audi SQ7 is powered by a 4.0L sequential turbo diesel V8. It's good for about 435 horsepower and 660 lb-ft of torque, which is great, but the fun doesn't stop there. In order to eliminate unresponsive nature of turbocharged engines, Audi has fitted the car with an electric supercharger, the first in a production vehicle. This means adding an onboard 48V system that can handle the additional power requirements of the electric powered compressor (EPC), which at full throttle can produce 7 kW of power, enough to spin the compressor wheel up to 70,000 RPM in just a quarter of a second. Full details of how this system works in the video, as well as animations. Engineering Explained is a participant in the Amazon Influencer Program.

Electric vs iconic - Can a modified Tesla beat a Porsche GT3 RS

A modified Tesla Model 3 that won its class at Pikes Peak goes head to head with a 250000 dollar Porsche GT3 RS in a one lap showdown at Streets of Willow. The electric sedan retains its stock battery and motors but adds aero, cooling upgrades and weight reduction to handle sustained track abuse. With battery temperature limiting performance, the Tesla gets just a single hot lap to challenge the Porsche’s benchmark time. The GT3 RS sets a blistering 1:21.3 before the silent EV clocks in at 1:21.8. The result raises new questions about whether electric performance cars can truly rival traditional track focused machines.
