carwow is turning into ‘vanwow’ for our next drag race! Mat is in a VW Transporter 6.1, and he’s going up against a Toyota Proace, a custom Ford Transit and a Mercedes Vito! All four of them have 4-cylinder engines, but it’s still everything to play for! Will the Toyota’s 180hp give it the edge? Or will the Transit triumph with its 405Nm torque? The VW has the most impressive claimed 0-60mph time of 7 secs, while the Merc has a 2.2-litre engine - larger than the other vans’ 2.0-litre units. Which will win? Join Mat and see!

Mat sounds like someone from a tavern in Game of Thrones
Sounds like Rhys Darby from jumanji movie 😀👍😀
He is method acting a van driver role apparently
He Sounds Like a Course Between🧔🏼Aitch🐝nnie and YORKSHIRE!!!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Great video. Too bad it's not as good as the BMW iDrive system.
Sounds like someone from Doncaster
I'm literally sitting in my work van, wearing a reflective vest, watching a man in a reflective vest drag race a work van. What is my life. . .
Fucking awesome mate, that's what it is!!!!
I just finished my shift, removed reflective west and started watching this :D
How exactly would you not be literally sitting?
As British as it gets mate 😂👌
A paradox, by the sounds of it.
The thing everyone likes about carwow is they do the drag races which nobody has asked, but everybody loves 😁👍
Hey, thanks!

The Mercedes in a cheap version, one of the cheapest here in test, did well with the wrong version and 50 HP less than the others.
The 119 CDI will kill them all 😂🔥
@@alizaitun6142actually the 116 cdi would have been also enough tongive them a hard time
Hardly a fair comparison
124 cdi and bye bye 😂 Mercedes easy win anyway
Me: haha nice accent
1min later: surely he won't do that for the entire video
At the end: oh feck
IKR 🥺
I lov it 😂👌
So annoying
It did begin to grate after a couple of minutes
@@markonovak8444 there's a very big world out there
Not fair! A 136hp Mercedes against a 180hp Toyota :(
So that’s why my FedEx packages are late
😂😂 one stage 4 and done :)))
Funny
😂😂
Which type of van do they use?
Lol.
For non UK viewers this accent was “interesting “
For UK viewers this accent was "interesting "
If by interesting you mean bloody annoying, then yes, it was very interesting.
Mat's accent reminds me of a comparison between steel and feather video
I‘m from Germany but i like his accent and its easy to understand😂
It was like a Chav mixed with Scottish accent
Wow, that Proace was pretty quick! Imagine what it could do if it was painted white!!
I can see it now - hogging the outside lane at 80mph+ and in the grime on the rear doors someone has scribed the immortal words.... "I wish my wife was as dirty as this van"
and its actually fun to drive compared to other vans. I got Peugeot Expert (which is literally same as Toyota, except front design) and you can take turns well
And the Peugeot did the best.
Nice.

Transit is always the worst van
They need to have the gas engines. The 3.5 boost in the transit is actually pretty quick for its size. And more HP plus more Torque
@@bajabarajas3467 will be very expensive to tax in the UK
For a while I thought my playback speed was 1.25 😂😂
ARKU HARRY agree, until I have to check my playback is 1.25 or not 😂. Matt spoke like he was rapping.
Same)))
ARKU HARRY I have a hard time understanding what he said
I love this channel cause they drag race every vehicle from the top end to everyday car. They treat every vehicle the way they deserved. Respect to you all
Only race I can watch without feeling poor.
they're still over 35.000 GBP
Yet, didn't change the fact that I can only afford walking.
who knew vans were so expensice?!
@Fire Heart oh , I assumed they weren't that expensive.
I still feel poor
Finally! This is what we really want!
You're welcome 😉
@@carwow thanks 🤣
@@jackvanepps7301 yup
@@carwow plz we need pickup off road race
That's how an english person with a good mood sounds like ?
Not the drag race we asked for but surely a welcomed one.
Albanian King ajde shqipe
They made one with a Sprinter VW crafter etc so this ain’t their first time
Definetly was, and needed, so funny
Dont always get what you want
The most wanted drag race in the history of carwow
We aim to please!
@@carwow try pickup off road race
Nice this van drag race 😉 but here I just noticed that you took the mercedes Vito with the lowest power category, you should have taken those around 200 hp to have a fairer race👍
119’would of been better
He apologized about that in the outro
"Riight ewerybody. Its Maa Waason hay from kaa wa."
Edit: omg lads. I deen't espekt sa maany laikes
Johnson 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I Think He Was Hungover
I've never laughed so hard at a comment 😂

Video: Which van is the fastest?
Comments: All about Matts accent 😂
His accent was the fastest
Relax the van was the fastest
A man with a Ferrari or Lamborghini can steal your girlfriend. But one if these vans in white could too.
While this is great I want to see the ultimate family sedan drag race - Mazda 6 vs Accord vs Camry - Passat vs Hyundai Sonata You get the jist of it.
Were in England not US
No one buys those cars they're horrible little plastic shitboxes
Merc amg e63s
We don't have the new accord or the new sonata here in the UK, sedans aren't that popular here, it's mostly hatchbacks on the road
@@prits5976 like your fiat 500 which was launched on 1975 😂😂😂
no one:
Car wow: We need to do a van drag test.
everyone: This is exactly what we needed to see.
Damn, I thought you were going to drag the Top Gear Transit with the XJ220 engine.
That thing was the best
You should do more of these “non car” races there so much more interesting
Agreed..the outcome is always unexpected
Do one with lorries 👌
You dont know the difference between they're and there so you're not allowed to have an opinion mate
@@Datoda Who hurt you? 👀
Should do with *Fighter Jets* too! Eurofighter vs F16? For the old folks like me? 🙋
So that Ford is all show and no go?
*TIME FOR TRANSIT RAPTOR SVT*
Like all Fords then
Should have used the 205 Bhp msrt
Should have had the new MS-RT R185...the spec to match the body kit.
No, time for Transit with Rivian drivetrain - that one will cover 1/4 mile in, what, 12 seconds?
Cham JDM like every Ford ever
Please do an updated version of this. Please Mat read this and DO ANOTHER ONE, it was brilliant!
The most accenty I have heard Matt
T K what accent was it? from where?

Just a reminder that you can get a 3liter diesel and awd in a Vito
Yes and a V6 petrol and the year 2024 also available as an EV.
No you cannot. W447 has only inline-4 engines. V300 model has the "same" inline-4 engine with two turbochargers.

Wow, this time I was really struggling to understand Mat. The British accent is pretty difficult to understand to germans 🤣

I have the same Problem
@@alexascs2679 well I'm from Germany obviously. What do you mean? I don't think I got it... 🤔
For anybody really. Except Britishees maybe.
@@alexascs2679 Based on the Oxford dictionary, the word "Germans" indicates that the person come from Germany. You might wanna brush up on your English, Majority.
1:35 - "405 of them newton meters" :)
Haukur Þórsson I was rolling when he said that
I was so confused when that Vito was sooo slow, but that outro cleared everything up xD It's fine Mat :)
Because it’s The 1.6 109cdi 💔😂
Am sure that the 119 will kill them all .
Who thinks they should show the speed that they are going after crossing the line
Yes drag race stats are alway time & terminal speed.
Always said that, Car Wow doesn't how 1/4 drag races work.
Pretty sure they are just making fun of drag racing...
Probably about 57mph
Matt hit the accents spot on, even missed out a few words in a sentence like a true northerner
Haha, he really didn't but that was part of the charm/humour I suppose!
no he didn't funny tho
You must be from the south. He didn't lol.
150bhp Automatic versus 170 bhp manual. Empty van versus seats in the back, wtf?
Thought he'd never lose the accent. Thank god he did
Actually he didn't 😂🤦🏽♂️
Matt sounds like he has a lot on mind. He's not there. 😂😂
I don't care which one îs the fastest. I have driven the same Vito for the last 3 years of working as an Amazon driver. I was gentle, i was rough, i was damn right trying to break it.
Oil, brakes and filters. Other than that this baracuda needed nothing. It still drives like new after 187.000km, it's punchy for a van(maxes out at 224kmh with no wind and level road) and for a diesel, it sounds great because of that blow off valve(2.2l 163hp engine).
Oh, and the sound system inside the cabin is out of this world for a van.
Just love it
0:53 He says "Bloomin heck! Ecky Thump! Eeh bah gum! Eeh bah bloomin gum!" It's Yorkshire slang
George Rammah you guys need to work on your slang it sounds like straight jibber jabber
Shut it tha knows naff all leave the accent to us true yorkshireman don't be jealous bout it
George Rammah - the slang may be from Northern England there but he's from the Midlands; his accent his West Midlands.
Hilarious if you keep playing it over and over 🤣🤣
Am lost in that mashup of the english language...Thanks for confusing me. i need to visit England and learn
I thought Mat had a jaw injury that he's speaking that way😂
I have the VW transporter T6.1. 199ps standard but I have the Pendle map (249 bhp). Imagine how rapid that is!!
My parents got a t5.1 remapped to 215 bhp I used to ask why have we got a van it’s slow but now I think it’s well fast after that vid
This is the episode where we ask: "what exactly happened here?!?!?!"...man, that accent requires subtitles for me
If you watch this 10 times you will get what he is saying. 20 times you will be speaking with the same accent.
@@1ewi5 🤣✌️
@@1ewi5 lol
What happened to his accent! He went full throttle on his British accent holy cow I didn’t understand a thing from this video. JESUS😂
I came to the comments section to find this exact comment before I went thru the trouble to type it.
Man's I did not understand a goddamn word 🤣🤣. I think Matt was drunk
It's the beautiful Northern English accent 😂
muhammad Akar same i swear 😂😂😂
Yeah, absolutely horrible. Could understand a word here and there, but it kind of made the whole video unwatchable. Haha.
Dont call Jesus brother. Jesus Peace be upon him was a prophet. He is not God. Dont use his name for just fun. Respect all of our prophets. Salam
1:20 the transit sounds awesome
It's fake tho
@@slooriginal1727 ik
£44,000 on a transit?! Hahahahaha someone will actually spend that.
You can probably get a used BMW M2 for that price :))
Found one on Mobile.de for 43,000€ and 20000km
And it's slow
@The Stig's English cousin That's the thing, it looks like it should to 7.1 seconds to 60 but it's slooow
du-te ma a lot less than that for a used m2 lol
You should do it again with the Vito 119 CDI and Mercedes should have been more careful with its workers
I drive 115 CDI manual its so so fast
Had to turn this one off his voice was doing my head in, and I’m from Birmingham as well 😩
This is the first time in Carwow history where I can’t understand some words that Matt is saying because of the thick accent
He sounds like a person from peaky blinders 😂
no
Thats a birmingham accent...
Brett Lee something very different from where matts from ennit
Man last week the VW amarok beat the best competitors, this week the VW van beating everybody. I'm telling you modern vws are little performance cars even when they're efficient and dependable.
Love the Merc van driver
This thing is slOoOoOoOooooOOoOOooOOw~
Spoiler: The van won.
Omg mannn. Ruined it 😅😅😅😅
Mercedes is from the start ~35 hp shorter!
When you're so bored you start to drag race work vans
And do a Yorkshire accent because your that bored
RUclips: How many adverts would you like?
CarWow: Yes
Dont be a tight arse and just go RUclips premium!
I had one ad, at the end, if you don’t like supporting businesses, use a Adblock or yt premium
Kyle Budd I’m very happy supporting businesses. I just thought it was a bit greedy to have a double ad at the beginning, followed by 3 in the middle.
Carwow: Van Race
Me, a simple man: YES
Mat’s totally high on weed😂😂
Mercedes is slow in here but i can tell you, if he have only 120hp from 2,2l engine he will live veeeeery long time
Mate, I don't know regarding engine, but that Vito will fail you in electronics(in an artistic variety of ways) before 60.000 miles. You don't want to buy that thing new.
Mine had problems with the electric immobiliser, and it's windows need to be cajoled and begged to go up or down.
Mercedes didn't acknowledge there was a problem with the immobiliser, saying that they had never encountered issues.
I rang a specialist to fix it, and he guessed that I had a vito and its age from the conversation long before I told him what van I had.
What's more, he reprogrammed it and replaced it with a vw part for less than the price of towing my immobile van to the nearest merc dealership. So unhelpful and I own one of their cars. So I'm a regular loyal customer. Not so sure I'd get another one.
Not fair race. Vito 114 is 3050kg only 136hp.
Get Vito 119 with 187bhp or at least Vito 116 with 163hp for fair drag.
4:23 "The manual ford took 18.4s" top of the screen: "Mercedes Vito" :D
Lol I loved the accent. I'm useless with accents ... 🤣 Yeah the van man needs a slap for sending the wrong can with the wrong engine ... Lol
Thats not fair! Apart from the engine displacement, the Mercedes Vito has the least power and it is the heaviest, it is no wonder that it is slower than the others, if you had taken the 170 PS version or the 204 PS version, this race looked very different, but no Mercedes has to lose! 👏🏻🤦🏻♂️🙄
lol that shows how even outside the F1 world,everyone is against Mercedes
I was a van driver for 17 years but i never sounded like a twat.
Until now.....
Probably drive like one , most do
@@CalasTyphon488 uncommon misconception 😃
Sure you did.
Just looked like one 😏
Where was our sound check?.. and I see VW are lying about thier figures still. 🤣🤣
As soon as the video started with Mat in his high visibility jacket and that accent I was dead
Santa Close why was you dead
Jamie Baker means he found it funny :)
Jamie Baker cuz it's a pisser mate
Is that Welsh accent? Or liverpool?
Same here
3:30 absolute legend honestly
😂😂 his northern accent 😂, mat looked like he had been on the cheep pies 🥧 too walking like he had 💩 himself.
😅 😊, when he broke into his own accent , I was surprised none of the vans went missing 😅😂😂😂
Love how there is still a bit of Birmingham in the northern accent 😂
yea i was gonna say lol. his accent is different today
You can take the man out of Brum, but you can't take the Brum out of the man.
4:23 that Mercedes is so fast. It finished twice in the same race.
How so
@@turkishstig8489 It took me a while but the writing for the Ford says "Mercedes Vito..."
Disappointing that he didn't call it a trani van when he was going through specs 🤣🤣
4:22 "MERCEDES VITO" yeah right😂😂😂
Imagine if this was the first video someone was watching from the channel. They’d be so confused lol😂
2:45 2JZ VAN JUST KICKED IN
0:53 is that English? I have zero clue what was said
Lmao look at the sub titles
@martin i It's worse than a Glaswegian accent!
It seem like the French Brittany accent
Dutch
Mat! What are you on about?! I can't understand a WORD you're sayin!! 😂🤣
OK TOYOTA 👌👍💪💪
Citroen dispatch*
@@karlhannon2006 yep, it's actually a Citroën/Peugeot van with a Toyota branding.
Even the other drivers are wearing high visibility jackets. Dedication. 😂😂
Fitting the van driver stereotype 🤣
This has to be hands down, one of the funniest episodes I've watched on the Carwow channel. Thanks for the Awesome content guys.
My 2004 T5 transporter has 174hp and 400NM, why are we going backwards?
The Vito isnt slow. I was faster then a Tesla yesterday in one...
The Tesla was doing 60mph, and I was faster at 70mph... Case closed
The guy in the Tesla was probably giving it 5% power lol. The Vito IS extremely slow
Lucas Still I think you need a “whoosh parrot “ 😂
Wtf. 7secs? That's faster than my daily...
The toyota is more reliable doe so it goes more milles
@@cryptoschyte8592 its not a real Toyota, it's made by PSA group.
proace has supra dna
There was a mix of all accents in there, go on lad! 🤣
0:53 A few glimpses of why he is the best right now! 😂 Love Carwow and Mat, don't take me otherwise though.
The drag race that anybody need, but want to see. It's normal that proace more performance, more torque and less weight, it's a suprise good performance for vw.
the accent hahaha
Mat: Playfully doing accents
Internet: So what exactly happened?
If Matt replaced the Vito with the 258hp Viano 3.5 V6 i would have easily doubt the viano would easily win
What about the vw transporter with the 2.0 bi turbo diesel with 204hp?

I've been driving a proace for a year by now. I figured it was fast but didn't think it would be so dominant
"Kick down ye bugga" funniest part😄
that ford looks killer, i get envy at them how good they look, then i remember its a 2l tdi and i just laugh lol...
hi-ace was good enough, now toyota leveled up and it is now a pro-ace
But proace can't tow shite and the hiace can same with transits after mk6 went extremely shit
And put it against the Nissan Urvan
The French make a quick van
Haha loved the accent. It felt like I was back in Manchester again 😂 I used to live there, this was spot on 😂
4:23 there's a mistake, can you spot it?
I spotted it nice for telling xD
