Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport vs Porsche Panamera Turbo S vs Pescarolo LMP1 vs Renault GP30 F1: from 0 to 300 km/h

The acceleration times of a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport, a Lotus-Renault F1, Porsche Panamera and Pescarolo LMP1, compared.

Is it worth comparing the acceleration of race cars against supercars? It’s quite subjective. Although it may seem that the Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport dominates the world, the reality is very different when we pit it against competition cars with cutting-edge technology.

In the losers’ defence, factors such as weight, traction and aerodynamics come into play, optimised for the road but not for a track. The Veyron was not built to compete against a Formula 1 car or at Le Mans, nor was the Porsche Panamera, which feels somewhat out of place in this test given the huge gap with the others.

In short, this is a video we could file away in the box of curiosities, but it is worth seeing what happened in the showdown between these four giants, from 0 to 300 km/h.
