BMW, Mercedes Benz, and Lexus - Essay Example

M3 vs. C63 AMG vs. ISF Today I will evaluate three cars according to the following criteria: Horse Power, Handling and Safety. These cars are BMW, Mercedes Benz, and Lexus respectively. 1. Horse Power: Speed The M3 is the most famous sports car in the world, perhaps because it is fast and well-known since a long time. M3’s horse power was 258 in 1990, when average car’s horse power was 187. Today, its horse power is 414 which increased by 156 horse power since 1990. Its technology incredibly increased its speed.

When it accelerates, it takes 4.6 seconds to reach 100 miles per hour. The C63 AMG is the one that was recently launched. The car was produced to compete with M3 because there was no competition for M3 from Mercedes Benz. Its horse power is 450, being higher than M3. And also it can add 30 more horse power as an option. Moreover, the car is much lighter than the M3; its speed is much faster than M3. When it accelerates, it takes 4.4 seconds to reach 100 miles per hour. The ISF is also the one that was recently launched.

This car is also produced to compete with M3 and C63 AMG. Its horse power is 417 which is not a big difference between M3 but it is faster than M3 because it is the lightest among those cars. However, it cannot still beat the C63 AMG on the road. When it accelerates, it takes 4.5 seconds to reach 100 miles per hour. Overall, M3 and ISF are fast enough; however they still cannot still beat the C63 AMG. C63 AMG has the most powerful horse power. The C63 AMG, compared to the other two cars, is the fastest car. 2. Handling BMW is famous for the handling system.

Essentially, M3 is really good at handling. Based on the survey, most technicians say that the car has the most balanced basement. It is weight of the car which is evenly distributed to front, middle and back. BMW has also attached a computer system that measures the balance of the car so when the car is curving on the road; the computer system automatically distributes the weight to the side where it needs more weight or balance. On the drive test, which consists of a number of curving tracks, M3 completed the track in 6 minutes and 15 seconds.

C63 AMG is the fastest car among the three. So, many people expected that it would beat M3 on the drive test; however, it completed the road in 5 minutes and 48 seconds. This defined that the curving skill is not better than M3. The problem is that the engineer of Mercedes Benz focused on the straight line than curving skill of it. And also the balance of the car is not evenly distributed. The front part of the car is heavier than the back of the car. It enables the car to keep speeding on the curve.

ISF was also tested on the track. It completed the road in 5 minutes and 44 seconds which is faster than the C63 AMG but M3. The reason is that the balance of the car is evenly distributed but the computer system is not well developed for curving. Its weight of the car is lighter than the two. M3’s well developed computer system and evenly distributed construction are able for good handling on the curve. Its handling system is renowned all over the world.
