The power-to-weight ratio is crucial, and that’s why bikes are considered superior regardless of how much power a car possesses. Although we do not endorse racing on public roads, this video demonstrates the real-world performance comparison between cars and bikes, rather than on a drag strip.
It highlights that regardless of the impressive power output of a car like this Lamborghini, which is reported to be 1200bhp at the wheels, what truly matters is the power-to-weight ratio. We cannot determine if it is a Gallardo or a Murcielago Lamborghini, but ultimately, the specific model is irrelevant.
While we may not be experts in mathematics, it’s clear that 300bhp in a bike weighing approximately 220kg surpasses the significance of 1200bhp in a car weighing around 1500kg. This comparison doesn’t even consider factors like mass inertia and rolling resistance, further emphasizing the advantage of bikes in terms of performance.
