Sometimes the big boys just aren’t ready to play and this short video showcases some true diesel performance. The Silverado is at 360 HP and 380 lb-ft of torque while the VW Toureg has 310 HP and 553 lb-ft of torque. In a tug-o-war its all about the torque, which that VW has tons of and at a low RPM. I asked my sister-in-law to predict the outcome of the video just based on what she knows about the VW and Chevy. Thats when I just sat back and watched as her mouth fell open in disbelief. Would you have predicted this outcome?
