Questions and answers
Which SUV or crossover has the most power in the 1CARS catalog?
The Tesla Model X (2015–2026), with 760 kW (1,033 PS · 1,019 hp). Second is the Lotus Eletre with 700 kW.
How is this ranking compiled?
Each model appears once, with the highest power output of any of its versions in our catalog (or of a generation when no version has a figure). Power is given in kW first, then PS and hp.
Why is a model missing from the list?
A model is listed only when the 1CARS catalog has a confirmed figure for it. Models without an official figure stay out instead of getting an estimate, and the list grows as we add data. Concept cars, prototypes, one-offs and racing cars are not ranked; limited-run models are marked.
