Four of the hottest crossover SUVs you can buy are about to go head-to-head over the quarter-mile!
We’ve got Mat in the new MINI Countryman JCW, and he’s lining up against a BMW iX2, a VW T-Roc R, and an Audi SQ2!
So let’s see how these pocket rockets compare. Starting with the MINI, it’s powered by a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo petrol engine that can put down 300hp and 400Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and it weighs in at 1,735kg. If you’re looking to pick one up it’ll set you back just under £40,000.
Alongside it we have the all-electric iX2. It comes with dual motors that combine to produce 313hp and 494Nm. Power is sent to all four wheels, and it tips the scales at 2,020kg. Not only is it the heaviest car here, it’s also the most expensive, costing around £51,600.
The T-Roc R & SQ2 are built on the same platform, so as a result, their performance stats are pretty much identical. Both are powered by a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo, and both produce 300hp and 400Nm. Both are equipped with a 7-speed gearbox and four-wheel drive, although while the T-Roc weighs 1,575kg, the Audi is slightly lighter at 1,535kg. The Audi is also just over £1,000 cheaper than the VW, costing around £44,100.
So will it be an easy win for the all-electric BMW? Or will another car snatch it? There’s only one way to find out... LET’S RACE!

@@Oozaru997 In every day use you won't notice the performance difference between a T-Roc R and Golf R, but you mostly won't notice the headroom either. You will notice the worse handling, worse fuel economy, etc. These cars scream "can't drive" - anyone with £50k who wants more practicality than a Golf R (which is very marginal anyway), who can drive well enough to make use of the performance, would just buy a 330e Touring or something like that. Are these cars necessarily bad? No, I'm not really saying that, but they are absolutely worse, especially given the price premiums they come with.

I had the T-Roc thing as a hire car for the N24 a couple years ago, it was an R-Line model and was fucking brilliant. Very quick, handled great for such a weird shaped car, lovely interior with loads of useful tech, great sound system and honestly despite it's weird crossover style, it looks great. Handled German back roads back and forth from the track with ease as well.....it's also the first car I ever got a speeding ticket in though.

The BMW ix2 costs over $100,000 in Australia. The other 3 cost between $60,000-80,000 depending on the model range. It’s crazy how ridiculous new car prices have gotten, are 2.0L turbocharged vehicles really worth that much nowadays, you’d think you have a large 500hp V8 under the bonnet.

Meh, they're crossovers, when is launch control of any use whatsoever at any point outside of a Carwow video anyway? Edit: That basically applies to launch control on most things, since it's useful on drag strips.
