Drag! Ferrari 488 Pista vs. McLaren 720S vs. Lamborghini Aventador SV

By: CAR magazine

Yes, time for another CarWow drag race. This time, it’s rather an exotic one, with the Ferrari 488 Pista lining up against the McLaren 720S and the Lamborghini Aventador SV.

As a reminder, the 488 Pista’s turbocharged 3,9-litre V8 churns out 530 kW and 770 N.m, while the turbocharged 4,0-litre V8 in the 720S offers exactly the same peak outputs. Both have drive directed to the rear axle.

The Aventador SV, meanwhile, is a little different. It employs a naturally aspirated 6,5-litre V12 delivering 552 kW and 690 N.m to all four corners (the latter bringing a bit of a weight penalty).
