  • A surprise guest is one way of describing the Volkswagen Golf R, which wasn't part of this year's edition of CAR Performance Shootout. Serving as another all-wheel drive hatch to the Toyota GR Corolla GR-Four Circuit, we decided to find out which comes out on top after completing a quarter mile.

    The DSG works better (faster) obviously, however, in the EU and 'Murica they have the manual Golf R which makes the results a bit closer than this suggests. Great content by the way.

    People say not fair, I mean all competitors are not fair to compete with golf r at this point. Civic type r(FWD), Acura integra type s (FWD), mustang GT(not fair for golf r, v8 RWD and still lost)…. Some with more hp but too heavy, some are in the same price range(you pay more you should win, right?) I mean what’s a fair comparison? If golf r is faster than almost all his competitors, then just admit it then, some people just like Toyota or Honda, they don’t care being slower or the ride quality then that’s their choice.

      I feel like the manual would still win by a hair. But I would be curious if they put the GRC into ‘expert mode’ which turns off most of the granny stuff and then used the imt option which helps with losing power during shifts.

      Nope… when the other manufacturers decide to step up their game and option their cars with a DSG then they can complain. I purchased my mark 7 and 7.5 with a DSG for a reason. I wanted to club these wanna bes. I’m willing to bet they raced that GR in econo mode. I didn’t hear launch mode.

    GR Corolla never really stood a chance even on paper, It's just a wish that most people wanted it to rival Golf R hoping it would give it a round for its money, GR Corolla is very nice and all but it can use a different gearbox and a little more kick in the power.

      Car throttle did a more diverse test golf r won both although the rolling race was much closer. They also did a track run and gr won by quite a bit. They also used both manual cars. There was also a older sti in the race which lost to both. It's really impressive from a corolla as Toyota hasn't done anything good with the name for a long time.

    I have updated the information by reviewing the source. Be careful, there is information on this fire platform about some Toyota Corolla GR models, with total loss of the vehicle. The warranty has been denied in both cases by the manufacturer Toyota and by the dealer, due to poor handling, they supposedly allege that the established warranty does not cover driving the vehicle above 85 Mph speed, the same speed that is defined in the Vehicle manual, be careful, be careful. I only report what I remember seeing on this same platform, if there is a difference in the data I report, look for it on your own, but I do remember the GR version well. Look for the video as: The Burned Toyota GR Scandal / #alcorte #noticias #news.
