The old Mitsubishi Eclipse coupe competed in a race with the Tesla Cybertruck superpickup. The Hoonigan team, which in addition to preparing cars for racing also runs its own blog, presented a new episode of its project This vs. That. In a new race in a straight line, bloggers pitted the brainchild of the late 90s – early 2000s, the Mitsubishi Eclipse coupe in a fairly tuned form, against the latest creation of Tesla in the form of a standard electric Cybertruck pickup, which was not even chosen for the race in the flagship and most powerful modification.
The three-ton Cybertruck has two electric motors that provide the pickup with all-wheel drive and a power of 600 horsepower. There are also more powerful Tesla options, but for a specific opponent, even this kind of output from electric motors is quite enough.
Because the 1999 Eclipse has a 2.0-liter turbo engine that produces 440 horsepower mated to a 5-speed manual transmission and all-wheel drive. But the Mitsubishi is twice as light – it weighs less than one and a half tons, which can still be called an advantage.
