Watch A Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric Drive Underneath The World's Largest Aircraft While It Takes Off - Jalopnik

A stunt video shows a Porsche Cayenne Turbo Electric positioned beneath Stratolaunch’s Roc during takeoff—using the aircraft’s unusual design with two fuselages and engines mounted on the outer sides. With no wind blast in the central section between fuselages, the car can sit there while the Roc accelerates and lifts off. The challenge wasn’t beating the plane, but matching its speed profile; the Roc’s six engines produce a combined 340,500 pounds of thrust and a takeoff speed of about 160 mph. Porsche says the SUV’s top speed is 162 mph, letting it reach that threshold quickly. Car and Driver data cited includes 0-60 mph in 2.1 seconds and a quarter-mile in 9.5 seconds at 146 mph. Long said he used minimal power initially, then Boost mode as speeds passed 100 mph to maintain position. The stunt is entertainment, not a purchase tip.
