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!

This is yet again proves that Honda Type R is what an extraordinary car. This is a straight line race. Honda Type R is faster than the Golf R around the Nurburgring, and it is FWD. Honda Type R is more than the sum of its parts. What is amazing is that Europeans while they were mocking American cars they are beaten by the Japanese on the handling. These days European cars good only for straight line performance. Also, since, they are beaten by Japanese cars around Nubrgring, they no longer want to mention its name anymore. Double Standard = European Standard (CE)
düzde herkes hızlı gençler, maçası sıkan virajda trackta gelsin, daha 2 gün önce girdik piste o çok sevdiğiniz golf le 3 tur dönemeden, arıza verip çekiciyle eve döndüler, kadına etec, erkeğe vtec gençler, öyle vagdan aldığınız 3-5 kuruş rüşvetle bize challenge yapmayın, ağır bozarız sizi, burası izmit, this language is izmitçe, anlıyon da ince ince ???
Automatic vs manual is stupid race
320 horsepower yeah right VW
Probably, the ugliest hot hatch car we can buy now!
Dsg vs manual, only ever one outcome in a drag with similar bhp.
German engineering 🤟🏾
Always humiliates the civic

Perhaps buying a Car that looks like it crashed through a Fast and Furious set doesn’t make it quicker.
Dude that's not a fair race, put the differential of cost into the civic and see what happens lol better it would be closer than that. Now if it was type R vs WV gti? No that's a fair race you wombats!
Golf r 320cv nas rodas. Civic Type R 320cv no motor
This honnda type r is the worst ever type r ever built
Does the Golf R come with a spare waterpump?
FWD is junk. There's a reason why nobody is interested in any motorsport that involves FWD. Anything interesting is RWD or AWD, always has been always will be. Physics doesn't change.
Mobil Jepang selalu jadi tai kalo lawan mobil eropa😂
Continuo a querer o civic...
40k for a Golf. Pay more for just posing, I would buy Japanese reliability everyday over German poor quality and rip off dealers.
Those two are the fastest new small hot hatches in the USA. All the faster ones such as A45S and RS3 are only available as sedans in the US.
Not fear the civic is manual and the gofl is automatic
I'm an owner of Honda Civic fk7. The only things I like from german cars are: the infotainment, the soundproof from road and wind noises, the quality of the interiors and the sound when doors close. When it comes to handle the road and the visits to services Honda wins hands down and I think this are the major filters when someone wants to buy a car. And also the budget and yes, Honda still wins also this point.
@Sorin Tudor the problem is that there are far too few good engineers and IT specialists in japan. Japan has a very large shortage of skilled workers and hardly any foreigner wants to work in a Japanese company because the Japanese are very different culturally.
@junkiex33 I have a big hope in the japan creativity and engineering
@Sorin Tudor toyota has no EV. And the honda e is a Crap overpriced car, that nobody wants here in germany and Europe. You will See my friend. The japanese are in very very big trouble.
@junkiex33 japanese cars and ev?! 🤣 have you ever heard about toyota? Or Honda E, new HR-V, CR-V? You are talking about what, audi e-tron which costs more than the houses where we live in?!
@Sorin Tudor you will See what i mean when honda will not be relevant in the EV Market in the next years. The japananese car Companys are so far behind the germans and tesla, even koreans.
Golf R vs Supra A90 3.0l.. Will be an amazing comparation!
The Golf R is a road car that some people take on a track, the Type R is a road legal track car... not sure I can make it any more simple than that.
Pls upload a 2021 honda accord review
Comparing apples and bananas, 🤔
Never mess with german autos.😎 VW
Yeah .. campare 2wd with 4wd .... what will you expect to happen when they are both same power but one uses 4 wheels to put power on ?
I’m sorry but the new golf looks absolutely disgusting worse than the civic, which is saying something cause that civic is just hideous!!!!
All stock Golf Rs have got around 340 Bhp on dyno. Honda Type Rs have less than 320 BHp around 300 bhp.It is that different between them. bgclip.info/run/mn9tpaasxYKnrYo/video bgclip.info/run/dqNpnYDdzZusqGU/video bgclip.info/run/pZ9vepiqw6XQ1nY/video
the civic aint a drag car. its designed to go round corners like its on rails
civic was in confort mode ? or was a grandma driving ? result are not real it's evident bullshit test glof 200 kg more for juste 20 Nm more difference is too big to be true if 2 are stock and if drivers are equivalent
We have had both the VW and TypeR. We loved both but if we had to pick it would be the Honda every time. It is just so awesome on the twisties and has the big car feel. Not so much with the VW. The VW is fast no doubt but it does feel like a cramped car whereas the TypeR has a good race car feel. Without seeing the video I knew that the TyreR was always going to be well left behind in a standing start but when the type R gets going it is just so fun to drive.
Hahahahaha wow, you're really clueless.
Daaammmnnnn 39000 and 32000 English pounds. My 2.0T Camaro costed 18000 pounds brand new and can keep up with the same performance numbers 😎
Yeah but you still own a base model Camaro that can't compete with either of these. hahahahahahaha there's a reason why people don't want american cars......
How mutch germains pay you for this vídeos??? Lets tell all The treu come on sucker brexits doing all for money
How has a manual car soft limiter Lmao
Great stuff! I am very disappointed in the Honda..l guess Honda is a track car, but what's good a track car on the public road?
yeah,straigth lane,but in nurburgring civic do 7,43 and golf 8 r 7,51 :D
Civic sucks with manual transmission
@Marcin G Renault fan to xD
@EduS2K that is how a conversation with jdm psychofan looks xD
@Marcin G I repeat, the megane has double its price in improvements to be able to lower the time, in fact the megane is newer than the civic, surely the next civic will lower the time without having to cost double
@EduS2K it is inch to inch same as a megane that You can grab out of Renault showroom
4WD ... FWD... this is fu*k off!! On the Track is the Golf rubbish!!!
Honda used to be innovative but that all went out the window in the early 2000's, 90s Honda was amazing.
This is true. They don't make anything that appeals to me anymore, sadly neither do many off the Japanese brands. They all peaked in the 90's, regards interesting & desirable cars. Come to think of it the 80's & 90's is my preferred era of cars.
GOLF R 4×4 4×2 ?? GTI vs TYPE R. 4×2 4×2 ?
Hybrid car vs hybrid car pls!
honda:where is my laptop?!
Golf R will always be king
dont care what anyone says I would take a Type-R over a Golf any day of the week. The Type-R was built for one purpose and thats to be a track monster. Also who tf wants to deal with maintaining a VW and their ridiculous maintenance costs
dislike are from kevin honda fanboy 😂
Given both are going to be street driven i’d say this is a massive win for the Golf R. Its the better street car. Also its moving like it has a stage 1 APR tune
I think one of these 2 car companies is lying about there HP numbers...or maybe both
Volkswagen- again.......
limiter at 2:38 Sound really professional xD
yep if the person would slam the gears right it would be another thing... but i guess its all about promotion ...
That golf is damn fast
I said it before and ill say it again. Drag racing an awd with dsg takes alot of the fun away. All you have to do is smash the gas pedal.. no driving skill is needed.
Was für ein Schwachsinnsvideo!!! Der Type R zersägt den Golf R in jeder Hinsicht. Allein schon von den Daten sollte das klar sein! Woher ich das weiß? Ich habe mit den Type R jeden, aber auch jeden Golf R damit gepulvert! Schönes Fakevideo!!!! Verpis.. euch carwow!!!!! Was ist das überhaupt? Hören sich an wie verkack.. Schwu.....!!!!
The Golf is so ugly now. The wheels are cheap and nasty looking. Even though its quick, it looks so boring!!
That Golf is faster than I thought
After watcth this video, I don't like Honda Anymore
Bye bye!!
Unless you want to look like a psychedelic 19 year old hooligan the golf is the only choice
Riced
The civic horn is so silly and funny 😂😂😂
VW says we can't mess with this fwd then we make awd hahahhahaha...
This is not a class meter.... U prooo... Awd is complete another class as fwd u can't compare this shit u are awd compare with ue class and I'm sure ure the last one kasparle
I cry foul on the brake test. The Type R was behind at the line, so had a massive advantage. These brake tests are always rubbish. Why don't you just measure the stopping distance using the timing gear?
Amateur drivers both
And now don't say the golf drivers this this this and this u champs
Carwow make the test sgain with the new Honda Civic TypeR with 400hp when he is come out pls
Thats the new golf vs old civic? Well...let us wait for the new Type R and we will race again.
Driving Straight ahead is easy, nürburgring laptime says all... type r with 7.43 and the golf 7.50 kick ass..
Love the golf, but I have my money on the type R because Honda is known to be reliable as hell
Since 2004 I had three Hondas: first Accord 5 I sold it at 258,000km; second Accord 7 I sold it at 212,000km, and since 2016 I own Civic 9 UK assembly, diesel engine(!!!) - ZERO problems, just maintenance and fuel - this is the most reliable car (and not only!) brand, even currently, knowing what "luxury" mass confection Euro-production has become, making cars brutally precisely engineered to endure up exactly to the warranty period and after a few months you start to face heavy and expensive problems, and you become the first friend with Mr.Smith from the service, and constantly break your nerves!! No, thank you very much! I made my choice.
@13432 2dkti3 Having driven several hondas well beyond 130,000 miles with ZERO issues; yes they are, and its a very well known fact
LOL not really
No more vws for me. I hv a 21 ctr blue
Wow this is funny
Honestly I’ll rather have a Type R. Looks more mean
Golf R is a torque type, Civic TYPE R is a rotary type, which is a natural result.
I'll still stick with the Type R!
Matt, you are hilar! 😂
There’s no way the Golf R is only 320hp. That’s crazy how hard it can pull on the Type R.
This R almost had A45s run for the money. Type R has no chance!!
XDDD un automatico vs un manual, aqui depende mucho de como lo haga el conductor con el manual en ste caso TYPE R
The Honda driver is absolute crab, he let the motor coup several times because he shifts to late. This is not a comparison but stupids breaking butiful cars neck.
Still prefer Type R. It's that Honda spirit and fun, and excellent handling. It's not even that it's the fastest thing, I've always loved Honda's for their potential and spirit. You know not to underestimate one even if you can best it and you tip your hat to it when you see it do its thing. If I could put it the best way Honda has people's respect. The golf is just a decent car that's faster but I get no excitement or spirit out of driving a VW. I happily own a 2021 CTR and I've been a fan of the Type r since I was 8 playing Granturismo. I never like Honda cause I thought they were invincible its just something about them.
Civic R is so sexy like most of japanese girls I preferer by far the civic R because Japanese 's technology rocks
I think the Golf has a DSG gearbox, is 4 wheel driver, and has launch control.... So.... Useless comparison this.
The better for Honda type R 👍🏻 very nice
0:33 thats like a prize of a tesla model 3
Civics catalytic converter is clogged
The VW will be paying visits back to the dealership with all kinds of issues where as the Honda looks HOT and will be as reliable as the Universe.
only golf r drivers give a shit about straight line speed...a hot hatch for people that don't like driving.
all wheel drive vs a two wheel drive damn he gave you a good one in rolling race
Why is the other guy so salty lmao
Type r is $39k usd
Next CTR should be AWD. I think that new Golf R has over 400HP on dyno.
Shiettt golf destroyet
Golf R vs AMG A45s.
Honda fanboys: THIS VIDEO IS FAKE, HONDA CAR BEST CAR
Yes the golf is faster, but there is one thing that motor journalists never touch on. In 10 years time that Honda engine and gearbox will still be sweet as a nut.
Das Auto🚗
directly from brazil🇧🇷
why have you shown a3/s3 shifter?
Carwow guuuuurrrrrllllll xxxx
That is really humiliating to Honda lovers. What a shame :(
By rhe way honda would never lose on normal circumtances, much better handling, braking turning etc, an much sexier
Launch controll + 4awd against normal car haha, i would be ashamed if it i was vw, imagine if honda was with lacunch control 4awd,
How much does VW pay you to make a FAKE video?
