Maruti Vitara Brezza VS Ford EcoSport In A CLASSIC Drag Race - Surprise Winner!

Maruti Vitara Brezza and Ford EcoSport are among the two most popular sub-4-meter SUVs in the Indian market. Earlier, Maruti Vitara Brezza was only offered with a diesel powertrain, but after the introduction of the new BS6 emission norms, the automaker decided to offer the updated model of the car with only a 1.5-litre petrol engine. The new model of the SUV is doing quite well in terms of overall sales, but many buyers around the country still want the diesel version. On the other hand, Ford EcoSport is another enthusiast SUV. Moreover, Ford EcoSport started the sub-4-meter SUV segment. It might be the most dated SUV in its segment, but it still attracts a lot of enthusiast around the country. Here’s a drag race video between the Ford EcoSport diesel and Maruti Vitara Brezza diesel.

The video has been uploaded by a YouTube channel named as Dream Cars. The Youtuber has done two attempts of the race to get the actual results. In the first round, one can see Maruti Brezza gaining a clear head start and effortlessly wins the race. In the second round, the race battle was quite interesting.
