Скачать или смотреть Expedition versus Sequoia

Just an acceleration comparison between Ford and Toyota's 1st generation full sized SUVs. The Expedition has Ford's venerable 4.6 "triton" v8 and a 4 speed automatic. The Sequoia packs Toyota's 2uz-fe 4.7 litre v8 and a 4 speed automatic. The 4.6 Ford made 215 hp and 290 ft. Lbs of torque. The 2uz Toyota makes 240 hp and 315 ft. Lbs of torque. (To be fair, the 2001 Expedition 4.6 had a 15 hp bump to 230 hp and a 1 ft. Lb. bump to 291.) The Expedition pulled a 13.22 second 0-60 compared to the Sequoia's 8.45 second run. Both vehicles were filmed on flat stretches of road with the same two people in the vehicle, the Sequoia really is that much faster.

This short comparison came to light through a friendly argument that I had with a good friend (the owner of the 97 Expedition). He claimed his Expedition could out pace my Sequoia in an acceleration run. After first being mistaken that his Ford had the 5.4 litre v8, he proved mistaken on the acceleration of his SUV as well.
