Toyota GR Yaris vs Porsche 718 Cayman | DRAG RACE
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 авг 2021
- What’s faster in a drag race… a Toyota GR Yaris or a Porsche 718 Cayman?
The GR Yaris is Toyota's very sporty edition of the small family car. It's a little pocket rocket. The GR Yaris has a 1.6 litre 3-cylinder turbo-petrol, which generates 320 bhp - which is higher than the standard as this isn't an ordinary GR Yaris. It's been tuned by Evolve Automotive, and it's incredible how fast it is in a drag race!
This Porsche 718 Cayman is the entry-level 2.0-litre version. The four-cylinder engine produces 296 bhp and 380 Nm of torque. It's fully standard, so it'll be interesting to see how it performs against the Yaris in this unusual drag race pairing!
We run these two cars through four challenges: a standing quarter-mile, a rolling on mile top speed test, an ever-increasing braking test and finally, our favourite, the Moose Test.

(*edit - Scott says the Porsche is 340bhp, but this is the 2.0 litre, which has 296bhp. Apologies!)
I'd rather know about the modifications before the race
Ok thanks - how about the specs of each car? Would you like to know that before?
@@OVERDRIVE.studios don't copy Carwow RUclips channel concept mate, do something unique 🤦♂️
@@eternallife5070 🤡 never seen cw run a moose test, ever, or compare the yaris to a porsche.
If thats a standard Cayman it has 300hp right. If not ur title should say Cayman S since u said 340hp
Yaris faster than a Porsche, strange time indeed
Yaaay I'm so glad your comment is the 1st one to show in the bar without opening the comment section, literally give the results away and ruin the video, cheers 👌👍
@@timfagan816 I'm sorry mate not my intention to ruin it.
People said the same about the Golf GTi mk1. I’m no Porsche fan, but the truth is that straight line performance is way down many people’s priority list for a sports car.
@@trevorlanga3819 your all good pal, you have no control how RUclips organises the priority of the comments! Didn't realize the yaris was tuned anyway! Cheers mate! 🙂
I'd rather have the Porsche.
It would be nice if you introduced the hp/torque, displacement, transmission, drive train along with the weight of the vehicles, maybe prices too, it would be a good intro and contrast between the two contending cars!
There is no point, it's tuned vs stock.. so a misleading video right from the very start.
Thanks for inviting us down! Was good fun. Look forward to bringing some of our other cars along.
The driving on the 718 doesn't really do it any justice
Neither does the driving on the GR, you get a 13,5sec 1/4 without launching it with reckless abandon
@@rasch19785 Oddly enough, that’s also the 1/4 mile time of a Cayman as well. When driven properly, of course.
The porsche would win if it were a carwow video.
Not true, they love the GR over there
@@themagicmessiah372 Mat love porsche even more, i mean he own a porsche
@@nonameyet2205 He loves the GR Yaris, he said he wanted to buy one.
@@Jan-ny8hn he does own one?
@@ryanchen9010 Oh he does actually, lol. Missed that i guess. Proves the point tho.
I call bs on the 1/4 mile time. Multiple sites and magazines tested the Porsche at high 12s. Perhaps the Porsche owner told the driver not to rev it on the launch….
Probably the PDK version, Manual is a whole different story you lose alot of time shifting.
@@maarten8959 Still, 14.6 in a 718? My Fiat 500 Abarth is probably faster than that, that makes no sense.
@@maarten8959 I didn’t use pdk figures, I used manual transmission figures. I know how to compare apples to apples.
@@maarten8959 the thing is Yaris is manual also XD
@@hugolafhugolaf , depends on humidity and temperature.
14.6 seconds with 300bhp. Surely that's not right is it?
No it's not, this is a click bait video.
Thats right. What a load of shit this video.
Seen the GR do 12,7s, I got 13,5 from mine and I didnt abuse it as it was still on its break in kms
Been watching Driver61 for a long time didn’t know this channel existed! So would love to see track comparison vides from you in the future!!
I would love to be chosen but, I doubt it, I live in Australia. Still, watching at home is still awesome!
Me too😂
South Africa here so it's sadly a no for me also
It seemed interesting, I cannot find a way how you can ruin so many launches in a Porsche...Either the car's owner did not want to have his car tested to the limit or the driver does not know how to drive properly. The Porsche's time is ridiculously slow.
So you changed the exhaust and? Why would that give more power on a turbo charged engine?
More flow = more power, but not a lot
It's not a lot but it does provide more flow which resulted in an increase in horsepower. Plus the biggest reason for the change is to get the noise for the most part, the stock exhaust is pretty much silent.
Is the braking requirements just for light vehicles or for lorries as well?
Those jb4 boxes are coming on amazing. Best stage 1 fir the golf r keeping warranty
The Yaris is just special ... AWD, response, body stiffness ... I had a blast the day I had it.
That was the first time I started to sweat while driving (but you get used to it ... sweat control) fairly quickly!
13.3 for GR. The stock Aus model has done 13.1 on a road. IT should be around 12.7. Still fun video.
Please bear in mind these tests are done in changing conditions and track surface, track temperature, wind, air temperature, fuel level and tyres should always be taken into consideration.
@@OVERDRIVE.studios What about a stock Yaris vs this tuned one, can it be done? Or a Supra vs Yaris. Toyota is doing well.
@@Malc664 top gear has done supra vs yaris vs civic
@@Malc664 You should check out the one that Top Gear did a couple months ago. The GR Yaris just goes ballistic at acceleration beating the Supra by quite the margin (though it does get beaten when the speed increases since the difference in HP)
@@Malc664 Oh, that's a nice idea! Thank you!
Yaris won,ok keep the yaris,i ll go for the porsche.
The turn on the yaris with 4wd is amazing.. puts a smile on the face.. i was at a trackday at croft and one was keeping up with a 911 gt3 rs 😂.. it really is impressive. At croft was similar time round track as my single seater also.. slower in corners but on straight made up for it with 260 ish bhp…
Lol, he said the yaris was tuned at 320, againts a stock 718? 🤷🏾♂️
Good work guys. Straight to the point 👌
Car like Yaris Gr , golf R , type R ...ect has exposed the luxury car brand.
It shows don't have to spend so much money to get a fast & fun car.
I hope i get picked by this channel for the viewing. 😁
In the Netherlands, in this set up, the Yaris will cost you 60-65k euro. I mean, thats allot of money for a Yaris. Yes, its cool. Its nice. But over 60k euro for a yaris? Nah, thnx. Even the standard GR is 55k euro. Its insane.
got to fund that healthcare... :D
Looking forward to the GR 86.
We got a rwd base model 296 hp vs a tuned awd 320 hp. It makes sense when the Yaris win
So a manual stock rwd 296 hp sports car with a racing driver vs a manual tuned awd 320 hp hot hatch with an amateur driver... it seems fair, don't know why it'd be unfair 😕
A Porsche losing to a Yaris?? 🤯
just a heads up to some viewers, the porsche is actually the standard 296bhp version hence the results maybe not being surprising
You should add a reverse test, it would be counter intuitive and tnerefore fun
Great you will invite subscribers, most of us will never have the chance to drive cars like this
Yes, really looking forward to it soon!
The title should say that the Yaris is modified.
Was the GR Yaris untuned?
Tuned Toyota Yaris gr to 320hp vs stock Porsche Cayman with 296hp…. Well… how surprising.
Still get the porsche 😂
Very nice, but I prefer The Cayman!
Yes, some need to show themselves to others!
@@remiandrepedersen868 , envy...
What mods have been done to the Yaris?
Did you watch the video dumb dumb
Yaris is a rally cross style on a cheaper lightweight platform (transverse turbo front engine front diff and a small rear diff for the small grip left in the rear) while the Porsche is on a gt style platform probably more robust, different driving style and experience and different interior quality. The 1/4 times are also important and toyota did a good job with the help of Mäkinen. For rally coast fans Toyota is the way to go while for circuit track day and daily I would prefer the cayman although yaris is pretty good there too and cheaper to maintain
Porsche is 220hp/t vs yaris 200hp/t so the Porsche should feel a bit faster unless breaking traction and with better aerodynamics will help a bit at high speed
A 320hp yaris as imran says it is will be 250hp/t
Don't care how good the Toyota is I wauld definitely prefer to own the Porsche
*if you have money
@@talharoxen if I did I wauldent give it
@@bluerineimb1148 you really dont know what that gr yaris is
its a great car
world most powerful 3 cylinder engine
you cant take that porshe rallying
I know mate but I saw one & it's just a Yaris with body kit to look at has no presence attol looks no different then a polo or a Corsa the Porsche is a Porsche at the end of the day
@@talharoxen on the streets people give a fck about Porsche, not a Toyota..
That’s crazy a little three cylinder car
No surprise really as the 2 litre 718 is known to be doughy off the line due to the turbo being slow to spool up. It if had been launched with a heap of revs on board things may have been different to a degree, but I think the Yaris would still have pipped it. As a car to live with, I'd have the Porsche any day though.
Please Toyota. Give the GR Yaris to us in America!!!!
Great video! Good match up between these two different but awesome vehicles. The video started with a brief introduction, ran through the specs and straight to the race. Great cars, great comparison and great video!
Totally NOT a good match up!. It's a tuned vs stock comparison. Pointless.
@@jamesmay1322 It would be pointless if the Cayman was tuned as the GR Yaris was. The Cayman is an exotic and not in the same league as a Japan Domestic Market vehicle. I don't know if you have noticed but, JDM vehicles are mostly all tuned. Where as a Porsche needs no tune out of the factory.
Isn't it interesting that just 2 weeks later on the same strip the very same Cayman manages 13.3 seconds in the quarter mile, (a full 1.3 seconds faster), with the same driver. So it would have comfortably beat the Yaris by a full 1.1 seconds if it had been launched properly in this race. Conclusion: Either the driver was deliberately not driving the Cayman properly so as to not show up the Yaris, or he learned to launch the Cayman properly (there's no way conditions - which were almost identical on both days - would make a 1.3 second difference). Given he's an experienced race driver i'll leave you all to draw your own conclusion as to which it was. ruclips.net/video/06xUihCdty8/видео.html
3 cylinders in gr yaris just sound naff tbf just like a 1.0 fiesta or pug 3 cylinder 😳 shame I wasn't a 4 pot turbo 4x4 then it really would shift and sound like a pocket rocket should. 🤔
Worst launch of a boxster known to man, considering you got a completely different time against the aston
That was a surprise!... I'd still take the porsche!
can do GR YARIS vs Yaris Hybrid drag race
With extra horse power 50? It's slower quarter mile than standard. You may want to look at that !
The track seems rough and bouncy, maybe that's why
The count to start the race triggers my OCD. 5......4.....3....2..1GO!
Also is a 718 really 2s slower than a 981S? I thought it was meant to be almost identical, interesting that it's so hard to launch. Regardless, only one of these cars is on my shortlist for my next car and it's not the Porsche.
Lol, this race is bullshit. And even the rolling race lost the porsche! Never.....
@@AnteFuerst I feel like the Porsche in the video is perhaps not entirely working...still not sure why anyone would buy a Porsche with a 4-pot engine though.
@@AnteFuerst ''Never''. Haha, Porsche fangirls are so *salty* sometimes...
@@corpro5195 Yeah idiot, because they used wrong stats, that's why. The porsche have 300hp not 340.
Ormai provate sempre più spesso pere contro mele!
Vuoi fare con una 718 preparata anch'essa?
@@Giorobben Quella GR ha 320 cv,
Fact is...in the real world on the street where you don't have time to set up all kinds of launch control protocols, having purchased a GR Yaris, it can pretty much out drag anything off the line in any weather and any surface. It's an absolute pisser! And it goes around corners pretty well too...
Except old Evos and STIs 😅
You would get smoked by my RS3 🤣.
@@audirs3564 Not on Britain's narrow twisty roads, and especially the RS3 weighs 300-400kg more
765 LT 🆚 F1 Drag Race 🏁
Content wise, GR came with PS4S. Cayman got P Zero. That’s already different level of tires to begin with. The GR also got 200 kilos more than the Cayman. There’s no way cayman would beat the Yaris in general ‘test drive’ scenario like this. Also since the cars were prepped differently, I think I would love to hear more of driving experiences like controllability, car behaviors at the limit and so on. As a fan of Driver61 channel, I am really looking forward to see real track comparisons from you guys!
the weights are the other way round. Yaris 1200, 718 1400kg...
It's impressive you managed to run a 14.6 1/4 mile in a 718 Cayman. Impressive in that it must have taken *many* takes to go that slowly, barely faster than a 1999 Boxster with 200hp and a 5 speed manual gearbox. But whatever was necessary to show the Yaris beating the Porsche I guess. This whole test is ludicrously staged. There's *no way* a GR yaris is pulling football fields (that gap at 1:21 is at least 500ft) on a 718 from a roll, especially when just before we are shown the Porsche actually catching the Yaris towards the end of the 1/4 mile race.
Would be much more interesting with a none-tuned Yaris gtr 🙄
Is this a 718 Cayman or 718 Cayman S? Cos a non S car has 300 horsepower. The S has “345”. A bit confused….
Hi, we corrected this in the pinned comment. This Cayman is the 2.0 litre with 296 hp.
I thought of same too ... it's a 296hp vs a mod 320hp
Please someone teach him how to drive. It's even an automatic.
Ha ha this has to be a joke
The yaris is manual.....
great video. but the tests weren’t accurate. brake test was not done at the same time, 1/2 mile run did not start at the same time for both cars. nonetheless great video but i would recommend to do the tests more accurate
Please do a collab with Carwow!
Yee that would be great
Wow, this one really illustrates how much more super the supercars are. IIRC, the Ferrari and the McLaren were able to do the moose test closer to 70 or 80mph.
Nope. They can't. Also, cone spacing of the tests will influence speed possible. Successful 70mph moose test probably means cones really social distancing ...
Hi Ken, in our first videos, the Moose test was wider... there are two types with different dimensions. From now on, we'll always be using this tighter option.
GR Yaris ❤️
Race the Yaris GR against my Rs3 .
Not a Caymen S...or T...or GTS...
how do you mess up a drag race? just floor it...
A 718 on tops out at 140mph?? I have a hard time believing that.
I had my 2000 model Trans Am over 140 multiple times and it’s a pile of crap compared to that Porsche
A 718 transmission is not geared for top speed
@@lausjay Direct from Porsche's own website, top speed is way above 140 mph. Don't comment when you clearly know nothing about the 718 gearing.
@@Javaris-Jamar-Javarison-Lamar still, a 718 is not a car geared for maximum possible top speed, even an rx8 has a topspeed of 140+.
The Porsche is a lot quicker in terms of acceleration, though
@@Javaris-Jamar-Javarison-Lamar what you fail to understand is that i was not saying that the Porsche is slow or has a low topspeed, but the gearing is aimed towards acceleration, not towards maximum possible top speed
Ai. You did the Porsche a dirty one here.
Toyota and Porsche are both car brands, but they have different characteristics. Toyota is known for its reliability and affordability, while Porsche is known for its luxury and performance.
Should’ve put a Golf R in there…
If the Toyota had a better styling and was a bit more practical like let's say a Honda Civic hatch, I'd definitely get one
Then get a type r
Love to see toyota being a better car than the porsche
Not just a Toyota, but a “Yaris”. Well, not really, a GR Yaris which is a completely different car and has very little in common with a Yaris.
The took the most crap version of the 718 and compared it to the most racy model which has also been tuned on top of it. The fuck do you expect. Atleast take a Cayman s to match the horsepower
@@Tecsy25 ok and the toyota would have probably won there too
@@Tecsy25 Butthurt fanboy
Makes me want one even more
Which one?
@@OVERDRIVE.studios The Yaris. Such a pocket rocket!
how did the 718 lose the roll race when was running the Yaris in the 1/4? was the 718 in 6th gear for the roll race? whats the point of these videos if you're not actually gonna race?
incroyable mais vrai!
YARIS GR VS ABARTH PLEASE 💯
Waste of time with unprofessional drivers
I watched the video and left a like. But then I read the comments. And re-watched the video. And left with a dislike.
If the GR Yaris is tuned to 320 bhp, it's unfair to not call that out in the video's title. Or tune that Porsche up before the speed tests.
@Supersaf?
This was just 👎. Cars aren't leveled most test, going different speeds and Porsche needs big time driver mode
Wow that Porsche was disappointing. He should be way faster than those quarter mile times.
Yes, you're right. It should have gotten better starts, however, it was very difficult to get it right with the turbo.
Guy looks like Gamermuscle ;D
porsche "hard" to get of the line, who is this guy driving XD
🇯🇵 >🇩🇪 😂
Yeh, now stick a remap on the porsche and run it.
Check the Porsche hand brake, what is this?Is better you race whit bmw 330d.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Louder Carwow
Porsche would win if it had a proper driver
😂 don’t think so
The had to put a modified Toyota to beat the Porsche ! Makes me laugh every time . How about we start putting Porsche up against jet planes lol
Bullshit! 😉
It's a toyata against a porsche. Listen to that again. Big money VS purpose build weapon, the porsche never had a chance.
Nope
The Yaris beats the Porsche and for a fraction of the price. Gonna sell my Cayman S now.
320 hp in the yaris?? They are only supposed to have 260
It had been modified by a tuner.
@@OVERDRIVE.studios why do you put a tuned car against a non tuned car ? It’s happening more and more where people do reviews of a tuned car vs a standard Porsche . Are the regular models of these cars not up to the challenge of a standard Porsche ? Any car can be modified to beat another car . I just don’t understand the logic ?
@@philandviki Touched a nerve butthurt fanboy? This tuned GR Yaris is still cheaper than the Cayman, so its not exactly unfair
@@smilepermile8165 it’s a TOYota :) toy is right in the name :)
@@philandviki Says the ne@nderth@| who hasn't driven the Toyota Century V12 or Lexus LFA or Supra 🤣
3:34 They forgot to mention they made stg on the suspension. This GR looks lower than it should and we can see some yellow springs at this time. + Stop keep on repeating like others its wheelbase is short. 2560mm is average and bigger than the 718 i.e.
Otherwise you're doing a good job Driven, I wanted to start with that
The Yaris has MSS suspension on it.
No offense! But the 718 driver is very sleepy!!
What do Porsche owner's feel when a Yaris is a more capeable car - let alone being far more special?
Ha ha . Makes me laugh . They need to mod the Toyota to win . It can’t do it on its own . Yet another compliment to Porsche .
@@philandviki My Yaris is more special than a Ferrari 488 Pista
Everytime I hear Toyota GR i also hear Supra
Wow embarrassing for Porsche and their fan boys (me)

Driven a Yaris GR today what a car!
Great cars, horrendous drivers.
THIS!! what an embarrassment these two are. I'm sorry but that cayman is a quicker car for sure..
I don't think this Porsche car is an original Porsche.
What car wow used to be... Glad there's an alternative... Keep it up
They haven’t changed though? And they were always a car reviewing channel that did drag races a little later iirc. They still have some of the best drag races because of the sheer volume of videos and quality of cars on a regular basis.
@@kipzonderkop1994 it's not as raw as it used to be. There's about 30-40% of the run time just on advertising and nonesense.
