The guys from The Fast Lane Car really have outdone themselves this time. Pitting a 3-liter turbocharged BMW X1 against a supercharged Range Rover is too much, even for a Bimmer.
They had an old dispute to settle and Roman was supposed to bring the fastest SUV he could find to a showdown, to face whatever Nathan was bringing. Unfortunately, Nathan chose a supercharged Range Rover with 510 HP to the fight.

Roman on the other hand, didn't even bring a SUV. He brought a Crossover to the contest. A powerful one, none the less, but still no match for the Range. The 300 HP of the X1 proved quite fast finishing the 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) run in under 6 seconds but the Range did it half a second faster though.

Unfortunately for Roman, he had to ride a scooter back to their HQ, on the so-called walk of shame. However, we couldn't help but wonder, what would've happened if he picked a proper SUV to race the Rover. Let's say… the 555 HP BMW X5 M. We think he would've won. Poor guy!
