.............................................................
In the mood for a hot hatch drag race? Of course you are!
The Honda Civic Type R is one of the most popular hot hatches on the planet. From either the front or the back, it’s instantly recognisable as a Type R! Once you take a closer look, you’ll find a 2-litre 4 cylinder turbocharged petrol engine under the bonnet, which will deliver 320hp and 400Nm.
So looks and performance are all good - but what chance does it stand against the new Golf R over the quarter-mile? Just like the Type R, the Golf is powered by a 2-litre 4 cylinder turbocharged petrol to deliver 320hp. However, the Golf R can deliver slightly more torque, coming in at 420Nm. But that’s not all! While the Type R is just FWD and a manual, the VW has AWD as well as launch control!
Does the Honda stand a chance? You’ll have to keep watching to find out!

  • "dual clutch 7 speed... all wheel drive..." race is over. zero chance.

    @fattymcgee123@fattymcgee1233 жыл бұрын

    • AWD does almost the whole thing. Without it you just struggle like seen in the video. I hate it, I also have to deal with it. Driving loss would be an issue over 100 kph, but that wings on the Civic may result in a quite high air resistance. The Civic never had a chance. The same cars (in terms of power and air resistance, not in weight and drive loss) - one with AWD, one with FWD - will end in almost the same time for 0 to 200 kph. But the Drag Race will end sooner. Yeah... and that dual clutch 7 speed (DQ381)... it's a nice gearbox. I've got in my Cupra, but I don't think it's really fast. But faster than a stick shifter...

    • Agreed. This is pointless. Drag rsce doesn't prove anything. How abt a lap arnd the track.

      @pummyy@pummyy3 жыл бұрын

    • Absolutely true....more gears usually means quicker shifts. 320 hp 7 speed car vs 320 hp 9 speed...I’d put my money on the 9 speed

      @Charmer4856@Charmer48563 жыл бұрын

    • @@Charmer4856 But...you will have to shift more. Or it doesn't make a big difference, because the higher gears don't effect the lower speed acceleration and there are literally two or three overdrives. That is the case with the 9G Tronic (Mercedes). Nowadays chances are low that all 8, 9 or 10 gears were used for maximum performance. With the DQ381 it means, you are in 5th gear at the end of the drag strip. It is possible that a manual transmission would be in 4 th gear. I'm too lazy to compare the gear ratios of both cars...

      @exoroxx@exoroxx3 жыл бұрын

    • @@robertmcdonald9762 Yeah, it wouldn't make much difference, though it shouldn't be ignored. But every German car manufacturer (with petrol cars I've driven) uses only six of their seven, eight or nine gears for (limited) maximum speed (~250-260 kph). Every higher gear is an 'overdrive' to save fuel and to reduce noice. A six speed manual transmission could do the same - just without an overdrive, so it's not really eco friendly and noice reducing. Like I said... I don't know what is the case with the Civic Type R. My last car with six speed manual transmission (from VAG) had a totally useless 6th gear for maximum performance. Maybe Honda drives a different way and (almost) redlines the car in 6th car, so they are not much different. But... the gear shifts will take much more time, even with some clever electronic innovations and if you torture the clutch. Around 300 ms at least for each gear change... I thing the bigger point is the traction at the start. It's just horrible and it costs a lot of time.

    • youre gonna start feeling real stupid when you keep skipping you favorite songs on those stupid buttons as you make a turn. Also good luck changing the climate settings in the dark. Also I hope you arent planning on keeping it for too long cuz all my VW cars had a failed DSG after 60k miles. You americans have access to so many more cool cars than us europeans for way cheaper and you get the dogshit VWs. We dont get the Elantra N for example, really cool car. For the overpriced golf you could have gotten a kia stinger, a much better car and a much better transmission, a real automatic which is not only more comfortable as a daily, it also isnt a time bomb.

  • That golf r has got way more than 320 hp. A 12.3 second 1/4 mile means it probably puts 350 to the wheels which is over 400 at the crank. The Mercedes-AMG A45 is rated at 421 hp at the crank and put in a 12.2 second 1/4 mile, so that’s the kind of power we are talking about. The golf r mk8 is way underrated!

    • Just so Americans understand. These are forced induction engines. Power is variable and depends more on the capacity to deal with heat. They can give a higher HP number but then some idiot discovers the car can't sustain the official power figure for long time. So they give a lower power figure. And btw Civic overheats also despite being pompously called a track car. These are turbo engines and power comes at the expense of endurance.

Then and only then is it making just 320hp.

    • The mk7 also has that, I could take advantage of it when I had my mk7 gti in a roll race by starting off the race with a downshift or upshift and getting the full boost right away instead of having a small delay. I’m sure you probably know or have felt how some automatic turbocharged cars sometimes don’t hit the full boost target in-gear until the upshift and then it will be able to hit full boost and pull harder. Party the gear ratio and more load, but some turbocharged automatic cars have the anti-lag in between gear shifts and it helps big time. Though you can get better times with the longer gears in the manual mk7 gti vs the dsg. Can’t wait to test drive the manual Mk8 golf r, I hope the gearing is longer to take advantage of the power as the manual Mk7 R has short ratios.

    • Yes, basically much of the time loss in the type R is not because of the slower shifts, it's because each time throttle is lifted boost drops to 0 and it literally takes 1 -1,5 second to ramp up target boost. That's how factory map works in every new car because of emissions. I had a DSG car before and staying on boost is what made it quicker than more powerful cars.

The Golf R has the best performance #'s considering its weight, engine size and power. 12.3 in the 1/4 is just as fast as M2/M4. Too bad the Golf still looks boxy and can't hold its own at the track (I hate those new wheels too). The CTR looks only slightly better :-( I would not buy either one, but if I had no choice but to pick one, I would get the Golf R because it is just way faster, and I would upgrade the suspension or at least add bigger sway bars to make it more exciting to drive and go faster into the turns.

  • 6:29 "I think you got 100 more horsepower" that's the truth. We all know the CTR is underrated by 30hp. Doing the math, power to weight, if CTR is 320 then Golf R is 360... but that's if they were tied in the roll race. So, 380hp. Add in the 30hp underrating of the CTR, 410hp. We haven't even factored in that there is more drivetrain loss since it's all wheel drive! So, east 420hp. That's 100 hp more than claimed/rated people! Massively underrated!

With a £7,000 difference in price, the Honda engine can be pushed north of 400 hp and all will be even. And the enjoyment of a perfect manual shifter can’t be communicated in numbers. Honda does many things right (excluding exterior design).
