At first I thought we'd be racing the turbo 4 stinger, but when I saw it was the V6, I knew it'd be a massacre.
There was never a chance for the Jetta, it's fwd and has 50 HP les than the next car
If that stinger was up against the Volkswagen golf R the golf r would have massacred that stinger.
@@mattsmith7379 actually stinger already beat it on this channel buddy lol u saw the video
@Catholic Firefighter stinger won rolls and 1 dig if I’m not mistaken golf r won a dig or two
Drop in a 368 bhp V6 AWD in the Jetta. Jetta wins dig & roll all day long !! 🤬
Should've used the stinger 2.5 instead
Stinger 2.5 would still win 😂
Not offered in Canada, only old 2.0T
@@moisesojeda1085 2.5 stinger is faster than wrx?
@@KobeMpthers 100%
@@bpearr8266 wow ok, how about the accord 2.0? Is the 2.5 stinger faster?
Definitely an odd twist throwing the Stinger in the mix, but I liked the matchup it was interesting to see!
Would you please make a race between WRX 2022 manual and SPT? Very interested to see which one is faster?
Dumping the clutch in the manual will get it a better launch but the SPT will overtake it because it has better transmission gearing due to the CVT.
@@SuzukiKid400 Not necessarily. The SPT transmission is heavy so the automatic version of the WRX is around 130lbs heavier. The manual WRX should keep pulling ahead just slightly. Given a decent manual driver, the manual will be faster than the CVT.
The manual 2022 WRX will be just slightly faster. The SPT version is about 130lbs heavier when comparing premium to premium. Given the added weight, the manual will be a tad faster. This has been talked about on some other videos I've seen.
@@Shortay1325
Yes it is heavier, but the shifting is faster. I have the GT and my son has the base manual. I drove both and have a feeling that the SPT is slightly faster. As a dad, I cannot ask my son for a race 🫣😅
I have both a SPT and a manual, the SPT is faster by about a second to 60 mph just because you smash the gas and go there’s no lag between shifts.
Got my 2019 Stinger GT(2) 20th Anniversary Edition almost 2.5 years ago (15,000km for $40k CDN) and it’s still a joy to drive and reliable with only basic maintenance done @135,000km now. Great bang for buck car, especially in Canada where the MSRP is the same as US.
Did Hyundai and Kia forget to adjust the currency exchange rates for Canada? 😂
@@SilverScarletSpider up in canada we are lucky to get the stinger and golf r (maybe other cars as well) for the same dollar amount as the US with no conversion 🤷♂
@@SilverScarletSpider honestly I think made a pretty big market error on the pricing in Canada. Back in 2018 you could get a GT for 44,500 CAD brand new which was a steal. Now it has gone up and starts at 52,000 CAD which is still a good value for what you get.
@@ryan2376 Good point. I wish that cars like the Honda Civic Si/Type R and Toyota Corolla were still priced this competitively as a value proposition as they have in the early 2000’s.
I wish they continued the stinger. Gas powered RWD biased sports sedan is my preferred at this stage in my life.
Would be a bit more fair of a race if you replaced the stinger with the Kia k5 gt or the Hyundai Elantra N. I think both still win but would have been a lot closer
I learned nothing in this video haha. Results were expected
Lol the stinger is like bringing a bazooka to a boxing match
Not really. From a roll the Stinger barely downshifted and pulled ahead.
@@SuzukiKid400 it’s the driver not the car. That Stinger v6 is a rocket
Love my stinger Scorpion don't care what people say
Indigo Blue Edition and Scorpion Edition have to be the nicest Stingers ever made.
Hope you never have to replace the starter.😱
Lmao still a Kia bro. J/k As long as YOU like it, that's all that should matter.
@@moochiezpitt let you know in 10 years
Love my 19 Kia Stinger Gt2 Jb4 map7 tuned 470whp 511tq until I get Lap3 tune for more power
We want to see manual vs Automatic-CVT WRX drag race.
Yeah, I’m sure there out there now, but I’d like to see more comparisons with manual vs automatic versions
That Jetta has 50 less hp and same torque/weight as the wrx and is still faster. Must be the cvt holding the wrx back.
Gotta remember vw hp numbers are always conservative. GTI and GLI usually put down pretty close to the rated HP at the tires.
If you could ever get the 2.5 Stinger to do a race with the GLI that would be cool. My friend had a 2.5 Stinger and we were gonna race but he traded it for a 4Runner before we got the chance. Edit: I just remembered my friends Stinger was a 2.0T with 255hp not the 2.5, which is another reason he got rid of it because they switched engines right after he bought it.
What an odd trade off 😂😂😂
@@GodsloveMuzik He’s more of a 4x4 Toyota kind of guy than a sports sedan guy, and he got the Stinger for an insane deal so he made a ton of money off of it to put towards a nice 4Runner. It also had a very noticeable trunk rattle that he kept trying to get fixed but it wouldn’t go away so it was at the dealership most of the time he had it.
@@BrownSofaGamer Makes better sense. I’m happy for him then. 4Runner is so old that it belongs in the archives or museum
Is 2.5 stinger faster than wrx?
@@KobeMpthers I’d guess it’s pretty close to the WRX in terms of performance.
A great match up would've been GLI vs Elantra N vs Subi! Anyway it was entertaining too! By the way no sound when watching through app but the website works
DCT EN Would take it, but it would be interesting with the 6MT.
The elantra would also suffer a catastrophic engine failure
@@mattsmith7379 oh yeah, one video out there and all the engines blow, typical troll😅
Elantra would’ve massacred them too.
You should test a Shelby GT500 against a BRZ and GTI next 😂🙃 I wonder what the results will be 🤔
It’s like bringing a Ak-47 to a knife fight
It's like when you brought the supra to the drag between the the stinger vs the Glof R.
a good line up will be, gli, elantra n, civic si, maybe a kia k5 gt, and elantra n line.
Well this is why I sold my 2018 WRX and bought a 2018 Stinger GT. No contest in both power, room and comfort.
Except the 2022 WRX is a completely different car and can be had with a manual…
@@SuzukiKid400 the manual in the Wrx is garbage I sold my 2022 Wrx after 6 months. They’re so slow and cheaply made. Kia stinger is better everywhere, even on a gravel road a stinger would annihilate a wrx or sti.
Would've been good to swap the Stinger GT for the Line or maybe a Veloster N
Do you think the 2.5 stinger would still be faster?
@@KobeMpthers no clue it's definitely heavier so it would probably be very close
Its weird seeing a CVT fake shift whenever it wants and staying pegged other times. Whats the point?
cvts are just so confused
Fake shifting is for fun. Staying pegged is for the best acceleration.
Stinger shouldn't have been here lol.
You need to get a Maxima in there. They are surprisingly quick even with a CVT. Especially on a roll.
Ehhh there slow
@@k5warrior115 I've seen sources rate the 0-60 from 5.8 to 6.5. so defiantly not slow
@@k5warrior115 *they're
@@bpearr8266 put a g37 instead of maxima the old 3.7 is still can keep up lilbit with stinger
@@kimvette1 people are way too used hard to cars being able to hit 0-60 in 3 seconds or less imo, I don’t want to be spoiled to the point where I think a mid 5 sec 0-60 is slow. Still plenty to have fun
Is the GLI tuned? Want to point out the fact that it has an aftermarket intake
stock. aftermarket intake does not add power
I believe they should make the GLI AWD, spins way to much for it do any damage like it should
Stinger doesn’t even compare with these 2. It’s a knock out of the park. Let’s see Stinger vs Z!!
Well we know one thing...that Stinger is the best looking out of all!
I’m confused what was unusual about the results. The fastest car smashed the other two, and then we got a close battle between the WRX and GLI with the Subaru probably winning the dig races because of its AWD. The DSG and lighter weight made up for the power difference. I thought from the title they were somehow going to beat the Stinger or something.
if the GLI had better tires it would've smoked the wrx tbh
Knew the Stinger would toast them, hands down... she's a Monsta that kicks it into serious Beastmode when she needs to! Handles like a dream, fun & fast af to drive.
I absolutely LOVE my Kia Stinger GT1 ~♡.♡~
Yeah, but its a Kia... LOL
@@meowmeow1232 Have you even Kia'd? I'm quite enamored with mine. Absolutely my favorite out of the many that I've driven.
@@jburrows24 I haven't! 😀
@@meowmeow1232 I respect that. Everyone has their preferreds, & I truly hope everyone feels the same feelings when they slide behind the wheel of theirs as I do with mine. *^.^*
@@meowmeow1232KIA has stepped up their game big-time. Don’t be a badge snob. The Stinger is respected and rightfully so.
I'd take the Kia all day.
That subaru has got to be the ugliest version ever
Subaru is terrible in every category. Especially performance and looks
The 2022 WRX is phenomenal in every respect. Top notch chassis and handling, great interior, comes with an M6, economic pricing, great features and has AWD with a manual handbrake. Great car and very VERY fun to drive as a daily.
The Stinger ATE them 😂😂
It better considering the GLI is 31k fully loaded and the stinger gt is 52 starting
@@cordellwanless5914 GLI is more like 34 loaded but your right
loaded at only 221whp?!
@@official_commanderhale965 this makes no sense. S model and Autobahn with black package get 228hp.
@@official_commanderhale965 it's just as quick as a mustang Ecoboost which has 70 more hp and costs more so?
Try using manual mode, put the gear lever into M & put it in S# with max settings & shift the WRX using the paddles, I feel if you did it that way you probably would’ve taken the Jetta in the first roll, that’s what I normally do when roll racing in a CVT (SPT) WRX, the CVT doesn’t do as good as a job as a DSG when it auto downshifts & gets going, what I would do is keep it locked in M (Manual mode) in 2nd or 3rd “gear” depending on what speed you want to roll from, then floor it & manually shift yourself with the paddle shifters, just a suggestion for the next race you use the SPT WRX. The good thing is about the CVT WRX is that it doesn’t auto upshift for you so it does take some driver involvement/skill.
Also please drag race the SPT against the manual WRX I’d love to see which one is quicker, my guess is Manual from a dig as you can launch it at much higher RPM, CVT is limited to 2500rpm to protect the transmission, but the CVT should beat the manual in a roll.
Wait really? Ive seem some videos from japan and australia. They have been getting better drag results from putting it in sport mode only, let the trans does its own thing, and no fake gear shift?
Manual faster in everyway
Why did you use the 3.3L stinger and not the more comparable 2.5L? Also that stinger starts at $51,000 here in the States… what’s next WRX vs a Lamborghini?
Can You please do a Veloster N vs Kona N vs Elantra N all stock please please.
A base 2022/23 6spd MT is the best bang for buck at the 30k range. Took mine out for 32k in total.
Good video but not really a fair fight with the Stinger in there.
I went to test drive a 2022 wrx recently. I was majorly disappointed. It did not feel sporty in the least bit. Way slower than I expected. It was a 6MT and I beat the car pretty hard to see what it could do. I was really bummed, because based on everything I have seen\heard, I expected to buy the car. If I was let down by the MT I cant even imagine how miserable the CVT must be.
the added weight over the model years has made it slow
we want a rice between Ct5-v v6 vs the stinger vs scat back 6.4
Great video but I would have preferred the stinger 2.5t AWD
Haven’t even see the video yet. But here to watch the GLI get massacred lol
Would like to see a stock q50 Rs added to that lineup , would be nice
The 2022 Jetta GLI was updated
When do you smash a standard to the floor. The wrx is faster if you 75% the pedal. By quite a bit
GLI w/awd would be amazing!
Am i the only one getting no sound? It's just this video
@@Eugen-E wack
Works perfectly for me 🧐
@@katemcm6875 that's weird as fuck it works now with no re upload and the other guy I answered too deleted his comment
No audio to not ear the soud of the WRX cvt....🤣
How is the stinger in the same class as the other two?
The New wrxs are so ugly lol but the interior looks dope though.
GO STINGER HAHA 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Kia stinger looks so aerodynamic.. Low CD definitely helps
not really a fair comparison to be honest. a turbo 4 stinger would have been best. Still impressive that it moves that 4,200lb monster so well...hope the brakes are good lol. All that being said, I think that wrx could take that stinger if you put a fraction of the cost difference into performance mods...in fact, A cobb ap, intake and jpipe will put you over 350 awhp on 93 easily...and weighing 700lbs less, I think the tables get turned. that new VB platform is begging for a beating with mods. First time in over 10 years where the WRX platform wasnt engine limited and instead was limited by the gearbox, diff, axels etc as those seem to be breaking on modded VBs before their engines are.
Wish you guys used a manual WRX
I think the 4 cylinder stinger is the better contender, the 6 is too much car for those two
So is the 2.5 stinger is faster than wrx?
I’d be interested to see how my Ecoboost mustangs stacks up against a stinger GT. Just had it at National Speed in Richmond VA, did FBO and 93 tune and made 351rwhp/422rwtq.
Ecoboost mustang with a tune you would most likely take it if the stinger was stock due to weight. Unless awd you would loose from dig more then likely. Stock for stock stinger wins all day. Stinger with a tune that's a different story fbo 93 tune can get you up to 420 plus and 0-60 in low fours even threes depending on grip and drivetrain of course
I have a stock stinger and the fastest car I’ve beat was a 2014 rs5 w an engine tune and exhaust so if you know where u r in comparison to that then there you go
Why is the 6 cyl stinger in vs 2 4 cyl turbo cars?🤦🏾♂️
Who uses a CVT WRX for a race 80% are sold as manuals and they are faster especially off the line
Sam did you use the WRX launch control? Si mode + brake + gas?
Quite frankly the steering wheel of the gli alone is better than the whole Subaru and Kia cars put together!
Why a twin turbo V6 Stinger? 🤷♂️
This pisses me off. Why won’t VW give us 4-motion on the GLI? Bullshjt!
With cvt vehicles on a roll it is best to get it in first sim gear then right when it gets to redline put it back in drive to keep it from fake shifting. The fake shifting makes a big difference compared to it staying at redline. Some cvt cars get to redline quicker if you double tap the accelerator
I would definitely take the Subaru over the Kia because of the Japanese build quality.
Wrx vs gli vs elantra N
"I'm not too far from the Stinger"... dude you couldn't even see the stinger in the videos after the launch. Obviously, the Stinger is in a totally different class than the GLI and WRX.
One of these things is not like the other 🤣
Where's the audio?
my 2018 subaru wrx was totaled by a stupid driver. so i bought a 2018 kia stinger gt2. the cars are miles apart in performance and quality. the stinger is wayyy faster, way nicer. they shouldn't be compared.
Need golf R, Elantra N, and GR Corolla vs the Wrx when possible.
Why is there no 2.5T Stinger in any video?
I know right, I wanna see 2.5 race any other car, but never seen any. I wanna see how fast is it
Jetta needs at least 20-30 more horses
So underpowered
knew these results soon as i read the title
why are we racing a CVT 4 cylinder against a kia stinger with a v6 lmaooo
The Golf R would have been a better matchup rather than using the Gli, as both the other cars are making similar power figures to the Golf and are also AWD.
The Mk8 Golf R (or 7.5 for that matter) would’ve blown the doors off the WRX and would probably give the Stinger a serious run. The GLI and WRX are comparable from a roll, but the GLI is always gonna be let down from a dig with FWD.
The GLI seemed faster on a roll. Second race it seemed to have started a little late by the looks of it. Even in the digs u could see it start to catch up to the WRX if it wasn’t spinning.
That Gli needs a driver upgrade because in the real world the Gli on roll races is quit a bit faster than the WRX
The white stinger rocks!!!
You were like 10 cars behind the stinger in drags
Stinger GT doesn't make sense in this match-up lol, but still fun to see the difference
Tuned civic Vs WRX
Nothing unusual
I think alot of you are forgetting how much heavier the stinger is compared to the other cars.
RIP Stinger (it's officially discontinued, production ends April 2023)
It’s not official
Great news
Too many grenades. They have their hands full with EN claims.
@@davevolz6138 The DCT software issue seems like a pain in the neck. Hoping mine will be alright since it was built more recently than the recall.
@@official_commanderhale965 Guess Stingers been good. Been hearing lots of EN motor issues and not great support from H/K
I wish you would attach times to your runs
Two observations:
1- Very disappointed in the GLI's electronic Limited Slip Differential. It clearly did a terrible job off the line, each time.
2- The GLI did a decent job holding its own against the WRX. Especially when you realize the WRX requires Premium fuel. But the GLI uses Regular.
Actually it doesn’t “require” 91. My owners manual says 87 octane minimum is sufficient.
Waste of time.
Please do Mustang 10 speed and golf r
Please Sam don't use the WRX anymore in races, it's just embarrassing what they did to it, it should be minimum 400hp by now, that's a family car now, not a performance car anymore, let's see later, but for now Subaru is death to me. But that been said I love all your videos.
What tires were on the GLI?
Probably the stock hankook kinergy gt which are junk eco tires. Kind of a joke those tires ever went on that car.
@@DJ.1001 Yes, I did get those with my GLI and they are not ideal
Sam what are you doing!!. Kia Stinger GT-line with 300 hp is what you needed for this. It’s unbalanced with a car that does 0-60 in under 4.6 sec like the stinger gt
Do you think the 2.5 stinger is faster than wrx?
Kia and Hyundai are the best value for money, hands down
Mazda 3 Turbo is another AWD auto option.
That gli looks like it's got some upgrades lol. Maybe intake and tune?
i don’t understand y the gt is in this
This race made no sense lol. Bring back a sonata N line that doesn’t have a trash driver to this race instead of the stinger.
Why use the V-6 Stinger? The 2.5T Stinger would be more suitable....if not fair
But is the 2.5 stinger is faster?
the Stinger is clearly too much for the other vehicles to handle.
Not sure why the v6 stinger is in this match up but the jetta is a joke compared to the wrx
Just cant get excited about automatics going fast.
The latest crop of Subaru's are some of the ugliest cars I've ever seen. Way too much rubbermaid cladding.
Why throw in a Stinger with so much more horsepower ?
The wrx was a lot more than 2 cars behind the stinger😂 maybe 2 18 wheelers
All the fun was between the GLI and WRX.
