    Watch The Mercedes-AMG A45S Demolish The BMW M135i and Ford Focus ST In A Drag Race

    Hot hatches (and hyper hatches) love a good drag race these days and although this is not a fair matchup by any means, it is still entertaining to see the huge performance differences.

    Without waffling on about the race lets just look at how they stack up. The Mercedes-AMG A45 S packs 416 hp (310 kW) from the legendary M139 turbo inline-four engine, sending power to all four wheels via a dual-clutch transmission. The BMW M135i xDrive also packs 2.0-lite inline-four with a turbo attached but delivers 302 hp (225 kW). In the yellow corner sits the Ford Focus ST and unlike the other two cars, it sends power to the front wheels only, with its turbo four packing 276 horsepower (206 kW).

    We know who will be the winner but push play and enjoy some hot hatch drag racing action.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
