For a car to go fast whats more important?
Just to understand better - A hummer is packed with around 300hp and g35 with around the same hp. Of course the weight and body structure plays a big role.BUT What i wanna know is that Does the level of HP really play a big role for a car to go fast? Explain please . . .
Hummer H2 engine hp specs : Available Engines:
325-hp, 6.0-liter V-8
Final gear ratio: 4.10
fuel capacity: 32 gal
curb wieght: 6400 lbs
G35 specs:
Available Engines:
280-hp, 3.5-liter V-6
298-hp, 3.5-liter V-6
final gear ratio : 3.54
fuel capacity : 20 gal
curb weight : 3,524
What to do with this info??
Lets break it down -
H2 Hummer has about 27 more hp than the G35 - these are 2006 specs.
The gear ratios means how many turns the axle makes from one turn of the drive shaft - so the Hummer with 4.10 gears will have the quicker traction.
But the biggest factor is the wieght - The Hummer weighs almost twice as much as the G35, so in other words the 27 hp is not going to matter to a hill of beans. The Hummer would have to have about 600+ hp to keep up with the G35. Not to mention the Hummer with a full take of gas will be carrying about 72 more lbs in fuel. Fuel weighs about 6lbs per gallon *.
In other words if the 2 autos drag raced it would be no contest.
