PREVIEW: Volkswagen I.D. R Vs McLaren 720S | Top Gear: Series 28 ─ Top Gear

Here's a preview of Chris Harris testing the mind-bending, physics-altering, kidney-busting Volkswagen I.D. R - the new prototype racer from VW that set the hillclimb record at Goodwood - and the Nürburgring EV lap record - last summer.

And to demonstrate just how fast it is, Harris races it against the (not slow) McLaren 720s.

Watch the full film this Sunday at 8pm on BBC Two.
