This match-up isn’t something we would usually care about, but with the growing interest in electric vehicle, we figured we would have to just get used to the idea. In this duel, an electric concept and an electric motorcycle went head to head at Thruxton race circuit. The Citroen Survolt and the Agni Z2 were handled by two professional female racers – Vanina Ickx and Jenny Tinmouth.The Survolt is powered by two electric motors with a combined power of 300bhp from 0 to 5,000rpm. It can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in under five seconds and can hit a top speed of 162mph. The Agni Z2 features an 65hp all-electric drivetrain and can hit a top speed of 130 mph.
"This was a fantastic experience – the first electric duel of its type. The lack of engine noise made it a very interesting challenge. Normally you have an idea where your opponent is by their sound, but with electric vehicles it’s so much quieter – a new racing dynamic. I had a lot of fun and I’m thrilled to have been part of this unique track event."
So, which of these electric opponents do you think came out on top? Check out the video to see for yourself!
