VIDEO: GT-R vs Escalade Twin Turbo
If you happen to have a Cadillac Escalade and are sick and tired of being slower than a Nissan GT-R, Hennessey has your solution. Introducing the Twin Turbo Escalade making 1000 horsepower. At 6000 lbs, this Escalade still manages a 0-60 in 3.3 seconds and runs the quarter mile in 11.3@124. Check out the video:
Ok, sure... the Escalade here does beat the stock GT-R in a straight line, but there is much more to the GT-R than straight line performance and the Escalade match up here is more for fun than a serious competitor to the GT-R.
Here are the full specs on the Escalade Twin Turbo:
Power:
• 1008 bhp @ 5,900 rpm
• 967 lb-ft torque @ 3,700 rpm
Performance:
• 0 - 60 mph: 3.3 sec.
• 11.3 sec. @ 124 mph
Performance figures are based on the 2011 Cadillac Escalade running on 93 octane fuel. Other truck and SUV performance numbers may vary due to the size and weight of the vehicle.
