I'm really confused about torque. I understand that it is the rotational force, but like I can't wrap my mind across why a Lamborghini goes faster than a truck when a truck has more torque. My friends tried to explain it in a simple way, but I literally don't understand it. I can't wrap my head around it.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about. A Ford F-250 has
- 440 horsepower
- 925lb of torque
- max RPM 4200
- 0-60 mph of 6.9 seconds
- 7369 kg
A Lamborghini Aventador has
- 740 horsepower
- 507 lbs of torque
- max RPM 5500
- 0-60 mph of about 2.9 seconds
- 1690 kg
The truck has way more torque than the Lamborghini, so I'm wondering how the Lambo can go faster then the truck with more torque?
