Voyah Passion S Recreates Iconic 360-Degree 'Tunnel Loop Stunt' Like Michael Schumacher (Watch Viral Video)
Voyah Passion S has successfully executed a 360-degree tunnel loop stunt in Wuhan, recreating Michael Schumacher's iconic Mercedes-Benz commercial. The unmodified electric vehicle utilized a 637 horsepower dual-motor setup and precise 130 km/h entry speed to complete the gravity-defying manoeuvre.
Dongfeng's premium electric vehicle brand Voyah has successfully executed a full 360-degree tunnel loop stunt using its upcoming Passion S electric functional utility vehicle. Recorded at a closed testing facility in Wuhan, the high-stakes manoeuvre serves as a direct modern tribute to a famous commercial filmed 16 years ago featuring racing legend Michael Schumacher and a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG.
As per a CarNewsChina report, the demonstration was performed entirely by an unmodified, standard production version of the vehicle carrying its full battery pack and smart driving suite, marking a notable milestone for heavy electric passenger platforms.

Engineering the Gravity-Defying Stunt
Executing a closed-loop rotation with a mid-to-large utility vehicle presents significantly greater physical challenges than lightweight supercars due to increased dimensions and heavy curb weight. To conquer gravity, the Passion S had to accelerate to a critical velocity of approximately 130 km/h and enter the curved tunnel wall at a precise steering angle of 16 degrees.
Maintaining precise momentum was vital throughout the sequence, as a minor drop in speed would cause the vehicle to lose traction and detach from the ceiling. The successful execution relied heavily on calculated centrifugal forces paired with instant torque delivery from the electric motors.
Powertrain Performance and Electric Efficiency
Powering the high-performance manoeuvre is a dual-motor four-wheel-drive layout generating a combined output of 475 kW, equivalent to 637 horsepower, alongside a peak torque of 765 Newton-metres. This configuration enables rapid, zero-delay acceleration essential for reaching the required entry threshold.

Furthermore, the vehicle's global 800V high-voltage silicon carbide platform achieves a high drive efficiency of 93.8%. Supported by an active grille for intelligent thermal regulation, the system maintained stable energy delivery without power attenuation through the climb and inverted phases of the loop.
