“What is the great debate in big money bracket racing?” Biondo asked, to which several drivers in the crowd shouted out "double entries." The Fling events have always had a policy in place that would not allow 'same driver/same car' to double enter. on Friday, racers and staff gathered in front of the Thunder Valley tower and viewers tuned in on and the Spring Fling Bracket Races Facebook page. In this drag race test from Canadian YouTuber Sam CarLegion, the K5 GT seems to be ever so slightly faster than the Hyundai counterpart.From the beginning of the week at the RAD Torque Fall Fling presented by Optima Batteries, promoter Peter Biondo and the Fling Team promised to deliver a "game-changing" announcement for select events in 2022.Īt 9 a.m. Car and Driver say they got 5.2 seconds and that the car desperately needs a better tire option. The 0 to 60 mph (96 kph) time changes depending on where you read it. When hooked up to the 8-speed wet DCT, you can expect about 24 mpg (9.8 liters per 100 km) in the city, which is decent for a mid-size of this power. The output is 290 hp and 311 lb-ft (422 Nm), and that sounds fantastic on paper. Now, this is a brand new unit, and it replaces the 2.0-liter on slightly sporty Korean models like these. The powertrain we're talking about is a 2.5-liter GDI Turbo inline-4. Obviously, if two cars share the same platform and engine, cost the same, but one of them is faster, you're going to think that's the cooler model.
But do tell us which is your favorite in the comments before watching the drag race. From the side, I prefer the Sonata more because of that classy roof that ends right at the back of the car. It's technically the fifth generation, but it's also a new nameplate for America that replaces the Optima. It's like looking at pair of Nike logos up there, so I kind of prefer the brooding face of the Kia. It's the 8th generation of the sedan, and it has headlight swooshes that follow the lines of the hood. These two have the same engine as well, so picking your favorite comes down to personal preference. The Hyundai is made in Alabama, while Kia has its factory in Georgia. Both the Kia K5 and the Hyundai Sonata are part of the same Korean giant and share a love for flamboyant headlight design.
Often, people can't really tell that two models are related, but in this case, it's pretty obvious. Carmakers often share platforms to save money.
