When's that Bugatti Chiron supersport 300+ vs Koenigsegg Jesko absolut coming ??? Why don't u review Koenigsegg cars ?? Christian Koenigsegg is a fun guy he collabs with every RUclips car reviewers
Thank you so much for having me! What a thrill to drive such powerful cars! Even though the IONIQ was mightily impressive, the AMG GT was more of an adrenaline rush for me!
You did great! Did they help you with the settings of the car so you could get the max out of it? The result was quite suprrising considering your amazing launch on the second race. Matt probably put a limiter somewhere
if you put 650hp electric engine (and even ICe one with good gearshift ) on old tractor of 2 ton weight it would beat mercedes of 580hp too on 1/4miles
It literally does not and if you lot have actually watched any videos of this cr, you know that. It's actually pretty disgusting what this channel is turning into. After finally going on the right direction too. We're now bringing ramdom celebs who can't even brake properly to do tests?
@@SumUnicus quick car, not fast car. Mercedes GT is car made for tracks, not for some 1/4 mile drag race lmao you could get 50k ev cars faster than mercedes gt in drag race for years. And you dont even need ev cars for that, dodge hellcat for example is way cheaper and would smoke this mercedes in drag race. Your so brainroted its crazy
I am in love with that ioniq 5n since its been launched and clearly mat loves it also , he's been a child showing everyone how amazing this car is , and simulates an ice
That was really interesting. Could argue the merc has better tyres, but it lost the brake test. So either incostentcy or that hyundai doesn't put the power down properly
My thinking is Hyundai didn't optimize it for 0-100kmh, but for higher, like 80-160 kmh. It def feels like that though, launch at 80kmh feels just like launching at 0
@@MilodeVries The issue here is it gains speed just at the right time to get a good 1/4 mile time - earlier or later it loses out. That suggests overvolting like Tesla used to do and its not something that can usually be repeated continually. While the battery is new and full its fine but as it ages not so much. It will be interesting to see how they behave after the OTA updates start coming in.

What other new cars with 650hp are you finding for under 130k nzd? He didnt say it was a great car for the money he just said its a lot of power.@@lexman8678
I don’t get why so many are hating on the Hyundai. I’m petrol power all the way, and hate the thought of one day having to drive an EV, but this thing makes electric as fun as possible, and just beat a merc that costs a hundred grand more! A hundred grand! The level of performance for the price is what people seem to forget.
@@moldytexas First, an old-fashioned life that cannot adapt to the changes of the times. Second, an internal combustion engine car enthusiast. Third, the cheap image that Hyundai has had for a long time. The ICE car industry was led by Germany, followed closely by Japan. Korea was the latest entrant among the major existing ICE vehicle manufacturers and maintained a low price policy to enter the market. I believe that time will ultimately solve this. If Hyundai and Kia continue as they are now, they will gain people's recognition before long.
I can’t agree. If I had the money to easily afford the AMG here I’d do it every day of the week. That sound, that beautiful body and styling, not to mention that interior. Now if I only had enough money for the Ioniq, that’d been my car. Who goes “Phwoooaaahhhh” looking at the Ioniq?
@@EspenX on straightline maybe. AMGs were never meant to excel on tge straight line, but instead on the fun of skidding the rear wheels and on track. But with all the european brands suddenly focusing on straightline speed than anything else, they're slowly becoming the worst of both worlds as evs are undoubtedly the answer for straightline performance. Even Toyota is aware of this and decided not to prioritize straightline performance on their future gasoline sports cars but instead of the fun and the experience. But they do seem to be preparing a full blown performance ev like everyone else under the lexus name.
Dude launched better than anyone I've seen on this channel that's not Matt, or Yianni. Which is so surprising coming from someone so random like him. 😂❤ His reaction on being in a fast car. ❤️❤️
And it cost a fraction of the price, requires no trips to the gas station, and much fewer maintenance requirements. If it wasn’t for EVs, the Mercedes would be a fantastic vehicle. Now it’s just last year’s tech.
@@ChrisLeiter Sure. But them being prohibitively expensive keeps them off the road to a certain degree. Every business lease having supercar performance will be impactful
@@MiesvanderLippe you can get a model 3 performance for only a bit more than a civic type R (or the same cost in the US) 😂 but sure “prohibitive costs” and all that.

I LOVE when they show some real emotion in the races! People like Francis, Yianni and racing driver Same make it much more entertaining to watch!! Great video❤
The new 2025 M5 weighs 2700kg and is slower than it's previous model... it is heavier than a three row full electric Kia EV9 that comfortably hauls 7 adults... the Germans should drink less beers... Or should they drink more?
Because they made it a full grand tourer this time rather than a comfortable supercar like the previous model. Granted, 2100kg is still quite insane, it's heavier than a s500.
I can’t believe I’m gonna say this, goes against every fibre of my being , but that Hyundai would be the only electric car I would consider buying. There, I said it , I want to stick pins in my eyes.
i wasnt surprised there... if you have seen it on The Ring doing laps there, you'd Know that thing has some Serious brakes! these aint no plaid stoppers. LOL

Never thought I'd see Francis on this channel, but he's a brilliant guest. Would love to see him in some future videos, he's so excited by it all but remains extraordinarily polite, bless him 😅
@@Quattro_JoeIt's all perspective but I thinks it's gorgeous. It's so unique. It's not going to look better than a super car but it's nicer than 90% of vehicles you get for 40k
Idk it looks good for an EV and a hatchback. Sure if you compare it to supercars and hypercars it'll look ugly but it's not meant to be compared with them
@@Quattro_JoeIt's really all a matter of opinion... But if you want to get technical there's a lot of people who really enjoy the styling of the ioniq 5, especially because it has a lot of the retro gaming style integrated into the styling on the exterior and interior..
I really like the approach to EV's that Hyundai are doing. If it feels just the same as a manual then it doesn't matter if you are depressing a clutch or moving cogs around in a metal box of oil.
What a load of cobblers. I've driven one, same old issue, it's an EV and it is bloody boring. It also looks terrible in the flesh. £65k of plastic crap.
Actually the overall weight of the Ioniq 5N considering it's a EV is not that bad. AMG GT is engineered for a completely different undertaking. Nice comparison both are brilliant kits. Matt vs Tiff make it happen Carwow generation drag race. A once in a lifetime Event !
I don’t see why you would choose this over the new Model 3. It’s 800lbs heavier, slower in a straight line, 80 miles less range, and $20k more expensive. Sure the brakes are said to be better on the I5N, but you could spend $10k on 8-piston ceramics for the Model 3 and still be under the cost of the I5N.
Look at Misha who raced both of these on the nurburgring. The Ioniq 5 N was able to complete 2 laps with ZERO over heating issues or over heating brakes. When he tested the brand new Highland Model 3 Performance the brakes gave up and caught one fire/smoked after 1/4th of the first lap and then the car cut power by 50% by through the first lap because the motor/battery were over heating. Now the EU gets a different battery than NA. So maybe American ones will be better. But either way if you wanna do track driving or very aggressive road driving the Ioniq 5 is better. It's also more practical and more fun with the fake shifts, drifts modes, etc. But if you just wanna performance EV for daily driving the Model 3 is an amazing deal. It's also very much improved is great to drive according to people who have compared the N and 3@@josephquinto5812
@@josephquinto5812 You can spend $10k to solve the brake issue and spend another $10k to solve the battery overheating issue in Tesla Model 3 Performance. Even then, you are left with a lesser product without the warranty that has no extra bells and whistles like eShift, active sound, N pedal (one pedal driving around the track), 0.6g regen braking, 800v architecture, much faster charging, etc. Plus, I5N is a midsize CUV, and Model 3 is a compact sedan. So, if you want to get a Model 3 and modify it for the track use, why not just buy I5N?
@@bbokdoong Why are you buying a CUV for the track? Dropping $20k on the Model 3 would only solidly it as significantly better than the I5N lol. No amount of brain dead tik tok features will change the fact the I5N is 800lbs heavier than the Model 3
Beautiful video, loved it all the way! And I was hoping you'd swap cars at some point so we can see the results of that too. So much fun! Well done Francis!

It's because its gt is a sl in drag. Kind of ironic since a 2.2 ton car isn't what id call "sport light".

"What's this Witchcraft!?!"😂
And his face too😭
Lol Francis was having so much fun and I really liked how random and chaotic this video was
I can’t believe I’m gonna say this, goes against every fibre of my being , but that Hyundai would be the only electric car I would consider buying.
There, I said it , I want to stick pins in my eyes.
I do too, Hyundais are cool nowadays
@@Sebas_M_Kinomanna, Hyundai is still trash
True 🤝
@@adan7182 Well that's your opinion but I disagree
@@adan7182Your conscience knows it's not.
The one thing that got me worried was the amg losing the braking test
i wasnt surprised there... if you have seen it on The Ring doing laps there, you'd Know that thing has some Serious brakes! these aint no plaid stoppers. LOL
i think the person driving wasn't putting gas 100% down it was evident in the brake test. It's not 100% down
I don't think he put quite enough pressure on the brake pedal - I didn't hear his tires in the video so the AMG probably didn't went into ABS...
That is really weired. And even with less weight!
But there could be a problem with the driver.
*ICE vehicle wins* "Yea thats expected, EVs arent there yet, if they ever will be."
*BEV wins* "Definitely driver error on the ICE vehicle, or theres something wrong with the ICE."
Theres always excuses when the BEV wins, ALWAYS.
Keep getting new guests, awesome video ❤
NO WAY FRANCIS IS IN CARWOW! this peak internet right now!
Who is that guy?
i know, this is internet at its best, i love it.
@@matthevandaalen6289he’s a train spotter who is a really natural innocent guy that films himself enjoying trains whizzing past him. Simple as that really. His videos are a type of welcome break from the narcissistic type of self loving videos on TikTok etc and he has a big following.
Ugh
When is the review for the Ioniq5 n coming?

Not a fan of EV, but the Hyundai is the best one in terms of engineering philosophy and performance value

Hyundai just makes sense these days for me 🎉
What's not to like about Luke, the man gets more happiness from life than 99% of the population. What a champ.
hyundais are coming back! my 98 has never broken down and has been the most reliable car i’ve ever owned!!! go hyundai!
I love how he’s having hella fun ! Def bring new drivers like this
Been watching years, dont think ive ever commented but i have to say, you need to get this kid in a Rimmac or a spearling because he is comedy gold to watch 😂😂
I love these Saturday morning drag race videos as an adult, the way I loved Saturday morning cartoons as a kid! Have a great weekend Mat!
Great work Hyundai!
Next time try the "supersonic mode" in the Hyundai. When you change gears theres like a sonic boom thats so much fun 😂
LOL imagine paying 3 times the price for that Mercedes then a big family Hyundai beats you at the traffic light grand prix lol
And out brakes your AMG by more than a car length...
Nobody is buying this car for straight line performances.
They definitely are@@matteo964
@@matteo964 For what else then? You rarely see them on race tracks for example.
But you will find them downtown, racing form one traffic light to another trying to show off and make as much noise as possible.
It’s embarrassing and that’s why sports car fanboys are so insecure rn talking shit online, going crazy over electric cars. I love my Taycan but will never buy a Porsche again, too many dumbass people around these sports car brands most of them not even owners 😂🤣🤣
This is the most random collaboration of all time
Truly
Francis actually did a very good job and was great to see somebody genuinely happy and excited by every second behind the wheel. Would love to see him return
You can tell this kid is british from a different hemisphere
I'd say he's more like from a different "spectrum"
Thougt the same 😂😂😂😂
@@Daveyboy_RS3 you drive a Golf R, you lot are in your own spectrum🤣 worst drivers on the street right now
@@asifnoaman8978 Well I'd like to think I'm excluded from the pack of drivers you're alluding to. Worst drivers in terms of doing stupid shit, or losing control and smashing into things, or just simply not knowing how to do a proper heel toe downshift?
Not sure which you're referring to... I'd like to think that with AWD and a DSG gearbox, It's one of the easiest and least engaging cars out there, so.... Anyway my golf R days are behind me.
Looking for something new 👍🏻
@@Daveyboy_RS3 i'm glad you didnt cuss me out and you gave me a sensible and logical response. Good on you mate. What car are you thinking of buying next?
What a random guest 😂 but what a guest 👏🏻 we want more Francis
In the history of carwow, what a random guest.
What a nice chap, He's like a character out of the Fast Show😂
Why he looks like George Russel from Mercedes 💀💀💀
I was thinking, is this George's brother or cousin?
His brother from f2😂😂
because Toto
Temu George maybe 😵💫

Honestly, this has been the best episode in a minute 🔥 from guest to car selection!
Kia, Hyundai are killing it at the moment.
Fast, efficient, some nice designs, good range of cars.
Ong bro they been cooking lately

Never thought I'd see Francis on this channel, but he's a brilliant guest. Would love to see him in some future videos, he's so excited by it all but remains extraordinarily polite, bless him 😅
No, please no more of him.
Very good video.Can you please do s63 e-performance vs i7 M70 vs Audi S8
11:25 press that bosst buton in the n and say "too soon junior" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
ioniq 5 N for me all day, every day !!
Francis is just the best person and has the best personality you could ever imagine great to see him on here with you. 👏👏👏
great video, love Francis 😂 hope he comes back again
Idk I used to hate the look of the ioniq 5 but I appreciate the way it looks now
It’s a horrific looking car that will in no way age well.
@@Quattro_JoeIt's all perspective but I thinks it's gorgeous. It's so unique. It's not going to look better than a super car but it's nicer than 90% of vehicles you get for 40k
It looks horrible and aged very badly
Idk it looks good for an EV and a hatchback. Sure if you compare it to supercars and hypercars it'll look ugly but it's not meant to be compared with them
@@Quattro_JoeIt's really all a matter of opinion... But if you want to get technical there's a lot of people who really enjoy the styling of the ioniq 5, especially because it has a lot of the retro gaming style integrated into the styling on the exterior and interior..
I really like the approach to EV's that Hyundai are doing. If it feels just the same as a manual then it doesn't matter if you are depressing a clutch or moving cogs around in a metal box of oil.
What a load of cobblers. I've driven one, same old issue, it's an EV and it is bloody boring. It also looks terrible in the flesh. £65k of plastic crap.
IONIQ 5 N IS INSANEE
The only thing insane about that overhyped ev turd is the price and its not even that fast either
@@lexman8678 Ahhh the fossil tears... always amazing.

I didn't EVER think id see this collab but i damn well now know i needed it! Francis is a treasure
Actually the overall weight of the Ioniq 5N considering it's a EV is not that bad. AMG GT is engineered for a completely different undertaking. Nice comparison both are brilliant kits. Matt vs Tiff make it happen Carwow generation drag race. A once in a lifetime Event !
I don’t see why you would choose this over the new Model 3. It’s 800lbs heavier, slower in a straight line, 80 miles less range, and $20k more expensive. Sure the brakes are said to be better on the I5N, but you could spend $10k on 8-piston ceramics for the Model 3 and still be under the cost of the I5N.
Look at Misha who raced both of these on the nurburgring. The Ioniq 5 N was able to complete 2 laps with ZERO over heating issues or over heating brakes. When he tested the brand new Highland Model 3 Performance the brakes gave up and caught one fire/smoked after 1/4th of the first lap and then the car cut power by 50% by through the first lap because the motor/battery were over heating.
Now the EU gets a different battery than NA. So maybe American ones will be better. But either way if you wanna do track driving or very aggressive road driving the Ioniq 5 is better. It's also more practical and more fun with the fake shifts, drifts modes, etc.
But if you just wanna performance EV for daily driving the Model 3 is an amazing deal. It's also very much improved is great to drive according to people who have compared the N and 3@@josephquinto5812

@@josephquinto5812 You can spend $10k to solve the brake issue and spend another $10k to solve the battery overheating issue in Tesla Model 3 Performance. Even then, you are left with a lesser product without the warranty that has no extra bells and whistles like eShift, active sound, N pedal (one pedal driving around the track), 0.6g regen braking, 800v architecture, much faster charging, etc. Plus, I5N is a midsize CUV, and Model 3 is a compact sedan. So, if you want to get a Model 3 and modify it for the track use, why not just buy I5N?
@@bbokdoong
Why are you buying a CUV for the track? Dropping $20k on the Model 3 would only solidly it as significantly better than the I5N lol. No amount of brain dead tik tok features will change the fact the I5N is 800lbs heavier than the Model 3
He is such an authentic person and a bloody good drag racer!
Get him on more often Matt!
God no
Great video!
Drone shots would be nice too, especially for the final line view.
But I still loved it!
This was a proper joy seeing how much this fella enjoyed it, clearly his first drag race in anything that fast! More of these, please 😁
I mean, not at the accelerating but hyundai beated merc at the brake test is really impressive point to me. Hyundai's 0.6G regen is amazing😮
It is is even better than the Rimac every costing US$ 2.2 million, that can only achieve 0.4 G on regen braking...
That was awesome, the enthusiasm and excitement was a breath of fresh air.
Great new guest Matt he was definitely excited about challenging you and made it look like fun 🤙🏻
😂 Francis is amazing. More Francis please!
Beautiful video, loved it all the way! And I was hoping you'd swap cars at some point so we can see the results of that too. So much fun! Well done Francis!
