The Opel Kadett E, which was produced from 1984 to 1991, holds a special place in Opel’s history as it marked the transition from the Kadett nameplate to the Astra. It featured a modern and aerodynamic design, with smooth lines, flush-fitting glass, and integrated bumpers. The Kadett E also introduced innovative features and design elements.

While the Kadett E came with a range of gasoline and diesel engines, none of them offered the performance showcased in the video. The Kadett from the video has been heavily modified, featuring a turbocharged engine that generates close to 900 horsepower. The power is sent to the front wheels, resulting in constant struggles for traction.

In the video, the modified Kadett races against two fast cars. The first race is against a stock Dodge Challenger, which proves to be no match for the Kadett. The second race is against a tuned McLaren 720S with 1,200 horsepower, and the results are very close.

In the final section of the video, the Kadett completes a half-mile run and reaches a top speed of 185.02 miles per hour (297.76 kilometers per hour). This impressive performance allowed the Kadett to win the award for the fastest front-wheel-drive car at the Race1000 event where the video was recorded.
