A stock Honda Civic 1.5T has no chance against a BMW 330i xDrive in a straight line, but this one was extensively modified and felt like settling the score with the Bavarian sedan.
The owner of the Civic had its output dialed up to 300 PS (296 hp / 221 kW) and 325 Nm (240 lb-ft) of torque, which a CVT carries to two wheels.
The BMW also received a mild tune – by 20 horsepower for a total of 275 PS (271 hp / 202 kW). It is worth noting that its torque is now far ahead at 407 Nm (300 lb-ft), though.
Differences do not end here, as the Japanese car is 264 kg (582 lbs) lighter than its German rival, while the latter has the benefit of the four-wheel drive. In the end, we do not have any clear favorites in this race. Do you? Watch the video and see if your bet was on the right one!
