As mentioned in the video, the footage is sped up for artistic purposes (ie, not many people would sit through an 8 minute clip) but top speed was 150 kph.
The engine response was amazing. Some erratic driving is seen due to massive potholes (craters are a more accurate description). I'm afraid our road network has seen better days.-

as i indicated in my comment, this video is not a letdown by any means
