Performance
The nanoFlowcell QUANTINO's top speed and acceleration are quite impressive, and its launch is relatively good. The QUANTINO also has a high nitro efficiency rating of 6/9/12.
Unfortunately, the nanoFlowcell QUANTINO's launch, top speed, and acceleration are inferior to those of the Mazda RX-8, a similar Class D elite car. While the QUANTINO's 6/9/12 nitro efficiency rating is considerably better than the RX-8's 8/13/18, its drifting ability is far worse. Most notably, the RX-8 has a higher top speed than the QUANTINO when both cars are upgraded, kitted and tuned for maximum speed. For these reasons, the QUANTINO is often overlooked in favor of the RX-8.
