That is false. At the same speed, the SUV will have MUCH worse performance.
Porsche 911 Turbo braking distance, 70mph-0: 133ft
For most typical SUVs, that value is 160-well over 200ft. That's multiple car lengths of distance. Easily the difference between rear-ending someone and not.
- Retric 3y agoYou obviously didn’t read what I said. “a speeding Porsche has worse handling than a Tahoe driven reasonably“ On average the SUV and Porsche will not be driven at the same speeds therefore the actual stopping distances should not be calculated using that assumption.
- TylerE 3y agoYou obviously made up a bizarre tangent that isn't relevant to the original comment at all.
- Retric 3y agoIt’s directly related to the actual research and counters your original statement. Aka when reality disagrees with your intuition, reality wins. Plenty of BMW etc drivers made panicked stops before dying because they had gotten into a situation where their car and reflexes couldn’t save them from physics. No car can save people from stupid.
