A hybrid car is never going to be a seriously fast car, the whole object is to conserve energy and therefore the car is not going to be able burn off a Nissan GT-R no matter how hard they tried. However, placing a car up against a lawn mower, surely the car is going to win, no way is the mower going to have enough acceleration to beat off a full size car. Even if it is a Toyota Prius, unless it has some extra power, may a state-of-the-art Garrett GT line of turbocharger or even some serious NOS Nitrous Oxide System.

Well the we cannot say that we are surprised at the outcome of the speed trail, but it was a woman driver, maybe she was still checking her make up in the rear view mirror when the race started! Of course, women do not really do that in stationary vehicles do they?
