It's time for a Japanese hot hatch showdown!
Mat's in what many consider to be the king of Japanese hot hatches - the Honda Civic Type R! And given what it's packing under the bonnet, it's easy to see why it's regarded so highly, as its 2-litre turbocharged engine can put down 320hp & 400Nm!
The question is, how will it fair against one of the most hotly-anticipated hot hatches of 2020 - the new Toyota GR Yaris! It may be down on power, with a 1.6-litre turbo pumping out 261hp & 360Nm, however, it does have one major advantage over the Type R - it's all-wheel-drive!
What do you think - does the FWD Civic Type R stand a chance in these wet conditions? Or will the lighter GR Yaris race to victory? There's only one way to find out - LET'S RACE!

That yaris has a huge future classic potential.
Absolutely
Given this is not going to be a limited production and will sell in huge numbers, it will be a long, long time before it becomes a future classic.
Hopefully people will still drive it once it becomes a classic and not keep it in their garages collecting dust.
to be fair the type r does too
3 cylinder, i think the engine wont pass 80.000km
Can't wait for1 cylinder hypercars making 1200bhp
First 😁
thats why koenigsegg are unique.
At that point just go electric
Those are gonna be so boring.
@@easycomeeasygo8901 no thanks LOL
Impressed with the Civic in the wet. FWD vs AWD and a greasy surface… would be interesting to see how it fared in the dry.
Honda would have had it 👍
@@toxichorizion2348 definitely agree with you there
3cyl 1.6 vs 2.0 4cyl LOL 🤣
@@vsr6344 is that even an argument nowadays??
@@vsr6344 so its .4 difference lol its not like its n/a or something :/ if the Honda was awd it wouldn't even be close...
That wasn’t a power steering failiure. When you don’t shift as you should and the car falls out it gives you that sign which is normal. Drivers fault not cars fault!
That makes no sense how does the car know you're not shifting properly if it's a manual gear box....
@@MJT-DA have you ever driven a manual my man? Because from your comment I suppose you don't
@@user-tl4sq8tk1d my 2010 Hyundai elantra is a 5 speed manual and if I miss a gear I just get a grind no warning signs saying my power steering failed wtf. Have you driven an older manual not the new ones that babysit you?
@@MJT-DA ahh ok I understand the problem. You didn't get the meaning of "sign". The guy with the comment with the phrase "it gives you a sign" meant that grind that practically warns you you are doing something wrong. And just because you asked only thing I have driven in my life is older manuals. Don't play the tough guy with a Hyundai. I have driven for the fields a Volkswagen Taro now last three years we got a ford ranger 2011 also driven sometimes an old mercedes "semi truck" and the not for work car a Volkswagen Passat 2004 I think maybe it was 2005. In Greece we only drive manuals my man.
@@user-tl4sq8tk1d I'm not trying to act tough with a hyundai lol. Hyundai hasn't updated the G4GC engine transmission since 2003. So it's very old for a 2010. What I'm confused about is why would the power steering light come on if he missed a gear? Never heard of that in any car.
That Yaris is is definitely going to be in Toyota's archives as one of their best cars. Love it!
Instant classic, especially with the test footage of the WRC version of it
but it looks ugly
@@ayems1991 All opinionated but the vast majority thinks it's brilliant and it's more of function over form than vice versa
@@ayems1991
Agreed...
Looks really really ugly
I’d say 300hp one and it would beat a lot of the hot hatches
carwow should do yianni vs mat running race for 5M subscribers special
Thanks for the likes too.
And they should both be dressed in drag, lol.
I agree
Omg, yes
@@antonoat I wouldn't go that far, id choose them to wear car costumes
If yianni didn’t eat lunch then he might have a chance
Konnichiwa hahaha Didn't know they had a Japanese channel.
yes, for asia as far i know they have carwoow translated versions for Japanese channell and Indonesian channell
This yaris become legend when it's sold out under 24 hours in Indonesia
In which part?
@@dyfrigshandy hype
only 125 units though
Yeah and it's become rare, more rare than jimny
Do they know Toyota cancelled WRC race this year? And Toyota is actually currently developing the 2022 homologation special with hybrid power of additional 100~130bhp. WRC 2022 has major technical rule change, there will be another homologation special that will actually have a real racing brother.
I'll say this, you cant go wrong with a Toyota or Honda. So if you pick one, you always win.❤️
Nope Toyota is making a very small number of these so you will have trouble sourcing parts eventually.
Prius ?
@@Osprey1994 on the plus side resale value will be much better
Far more reliable than the german ones
I think we are way past the buy by badge era now... Hyundai have some descent cars out and so does Renault...in saying that in the dry I am sure the Honda will win
Power steering failed for one second
Toyota : oh no you dont sending virtual technician right away
The car fix it self
@@jeeewhyyypheee The problem is it's already got electrical problems ROFL!
My 12 y.o. rav4 on its 8th year had 3 times in a week "check abs,vsc,trc system", after that the warnings never appeared again.
@@boygonewhoopdataZZ Don't worry when the car had degree for being able fixing it self 😂
@@rpgPalette You had one experienced rav4 sir
I wonder if Toyota keep down this path and keep making even cooler hot hatchbacks would be really epic
Funny thing is there's now a GR Corolla
fr pretty sure everyone would buy toyotas if they made cooler more fun cars
That Yaris is NO JOKE! The best Toyota to be introduced in years. Very unexpected

@@BlingJ. luxurious civic ... said no one ever LMAO
@ML Highlights im talking about only that gr yaris compared to civic is luxury fun with power
We need more drag races of Yaris.. it's such an exciting car..
its made for track and corners not drag race
We need Yaeis vs Wrx Sti becouse they are both "rally cars for the road"
@@aljazcuk Except the STI will always be available.
@@aljazcuk nah should be this and celica gt4
@@langraman8756 completely agree. Yaris is a track car, fun on corners. Its not a drag car. That's for lambs, ferraris, M5s, 911s but this one have built for enjoying the pleasure of drive fast in a mountain road. And for common mortals and no just rich people.
Probably the most important drag race of the year.
Nope, Honda is readily available and the Yaris will be gone in no time because they are only making 25k worldwide.
@@Osprey1994 triggered 🤣
@@Osprey1994 until the GR Corolla comes I still go for the Yaris
Nah, that was the taycan vs Tesla model S
No because neither are muscle cars 🤦🏿♂️🙈
This is my kind of drag race, well designed hot hatches. I see why Matt got the Yaris, dual lsd, 261 hp, great looks, and I especially like that the hazards come on automatically because it stops so quickly
So
My mom drives a Yaris IA and it's slow .....UNTIL I drive it and put it in sport mode and manual shift. Beats a lot of cars from one light to the next😆
9:25, wow, that's a long drag race

@@logansam4763you raced the IA stop lying dude. You haven't a clue
I never thought i would yearn for a Yaris but i do, i really do.
What about the old RS Turbo ones?
@@ImadHadjersi I hear you but that car never did it for me tbh. It looked like someone took thier nans car & spent a couple of hundred quid in halfords on it. Also, iirc it wasn't actually that quick.
Yearn for a Veloster N instead !
Count me in! Big-time fan of this car!
@@ImadHadjersi i own the 2011 rs with a few mods and it's not groundbreaking. The rs drives better then the regular vitz and has better handeling and quite fun to drive but it stops there i'm not going to heavy on the mods so the car is not fast enough as i wish it would be. In terms of speed i would compare it to a toyota auris or 4 cyl blade not quicker then that.
If I had the money I'd snap up that yaris tomorrow. A guaranteed future classic
Next to the celiac gt-4. They’re both good cars at stock.
Except the mk4 stock Supra which was meant to be a gran tourer car like an lc500.
If we r talking apples to apples the Supra is a boat at stock handling.
The gt car I would prefer in jdm is the lc500. Man that V8 !
No duh it's limited to 25k worldwide...
@@Osprey1994 At least 25k, not limited to. This thing will sell by the boat load.
Despite the fact that it’s a 3 cylinder
two, one to use like a maniac and one to keep with zero miles and sell it in the future
The way the gr squats down while accelerating is really cool
this makes me excited for the GR Corolla to be released. it would be a direct competitor to the type r civic and i have no doubt it would put it to shame
AWD vs FWD on wet road are you kidding me, still luxurious civic was just about to kick the ass of that yaris suffocation tin can.. HONDA LUXURY AND SPORTS LOVE
Put it to shame? Strong choice of words there considering this a FWD vs AWD ,and the Civic on real word usage still wins
@@nmot97 guess we’ll find out when it unveils
This is no test of these two , they are both about corners not drag races - but- 4WD is a big advantage in standing. starts and wet conditions. But despite the hype the regular model Type R is every bit as good to drive as the Yaris , a fabulous chassis, superb damping, gearchange, steering and brakes. Its also roomy and practical , much more so than the Yaris which is a toy by comparison. No reason to think the new FL1 Type R is not going to be at least as good , probably better so good luck Toyota - The Civic was the boss right to the end , AMG, VW, Renault, Cupra , Hyundai N, - all second best to the mighty Honda,
"worlds natural order of car reliability has been restored " 🤣🤣🤣
Yuppppppp
For $40k American dollars a Civic and Yaris? Cut it out, they are not worth it
@@marcz9482 the type r costs the same in the us, and it is some of the most fun you can have for that money,(atleast when buying new)
@@marcz9482 what's your definition of worth it then may I ask?
@@scordatura9259 a car that doesnt handle like a boat which is like 80 percent of American cars since there fat the only reason they handle remotely well even at all is either suspension tricks or serious advancement in said suspension technology without that they would handle like a shopping cart and these cars have those in spades too the gr yaris is definitely worth the money its basically a road going rally car with safety features and all the nice amenities sadly stuff like GPS and collision detection and the HUD are stuck on the convenience package which you cant get with the circuit pack but lets be honest you can just use your phone and you don't need collision detection if your a good driver plus that's not what you buy this car for anyways
GR Yaris is literally the spiritual successor to the Celica GT-Four.
Edit: *AND* the Lancer because of Makinen's involvement
I wish they'd made the corolla hatchback under 1000 kg
More like a successor to Starlet GT
lol.
GT four prove his potential for real...
Its like Toyota brought back the honda CRX and gave it a dose of ‘roids
@@justintowers8230 the cw value is actually better even if the yaris looks more chubby. I am not sure if i can translate cw value like this but its stands for the drag. Lower is better. The celicas have all a cw value between 0.29 and 0.32. I couldnt find a specific number for the gr yaris but a normal yaris have 0.28 and i read that the gr yaris does have a better cw value than the normal yaris
All Type R's have the most satisfying manual boxes. I've had the pleasure of owning a dc2r

That Yaris will be a collector one day. People say it reminds them of the Celica but most forget about the great corolla rally car they had!
The Yaris looks alot better than the previous models👌
Yup
Looks better than the hideous Type R, too..

It does that once in a blue moonso that it doent get nerfed.

Who’s here because of the new GR Corolla?

Matt talking about Yaris while being in the Yaris? That's cheeky editing
Matt: "CIVIC V. YARIS"
EVERYONE: "We witness GREATNESS"
Literally nobody said that
Witness the fitness
Couldn't even Imagine I would be here to see a Yaris beating on a type R
AWD will always win over FWD in the rain. In dry, the CTR would have killed that thing.
@@NismoFinder No it would not kill because the Type R barely beat the Yaris in roll race. That's some scary shit
@@rockefelleragent1357 the Civic was spinning its wheels even in the rolling race, it would have definitely demolished the Yaris in the dry
That Yaris is impressive. But it only won because they were racing in the rain. In the dry the type r would have won easily.
Type Rs are absolute dog shit to be honest, always have been, always will be.
Last civic type r at a UK dealer has sold for £40k! 😯😯 That's a standard GT model not the limited edition
You can't go wrong with both cars, but I'd still choose the Civic Type R, because it feels more race-like, and also very practical. Even though it's a sporty car, it's still a practical Honda Civic at the end of the day ~ And for the front-wheel drive, it actually did pretty good during the drag race and it kept up very well with the Yaris.
Love both these cars but would like to see this drag race on a dry track.
Mat is wetting his pants over the Yaris at the moment. You're lucky it wasn't on the grass.
Honda in the dry fore sure.
@@masterq2.033 Agree.

The races clearly tell that toyota have really put some raw power in that thing.
Having 260hps and still staying so close to a car that has 320hps.
Lol look at the size of that little suffocated tin can
& yaris gr is 1.6 turbo. Not 2l turbo. But races very closed. Not far.
@@BlingJ. uve got something better than that?
Thats like comparing a barebone racing tiny car with a super exotic econmy sedan, corrola baby trying hard to prove themself
@@BlingJ. well thats like comparing 2cars that cost almost the same. So i dont think being a barebone track racing TIN CAN or a economy sedan matters here
I think manual car drag races are more interesting because you actually have to put in work.
What work? Pushing clutch and shift? Think both have revmatch
@@berndelignie8002 Pushing clutch and shift is still more work than doing nothing in an automatic and you can easily turn the revmatch off if you don't want to use it.
@@nonameyet2205 That's correct, Matt has even proven that his mother and girlfriend can drag race🤦♂️🤣
@@berndelignie8002 yes, have you ever tried to shift as fast as you can in manual car? And at the same time try to gain max power on each gear before you do upshift? It's fun actually, you should try it if you haven't 😁
I'm here to see which car is faster, not which driver is more skilled.
I think Toyota Gr yaris just needs an exhaust then it'll be perfect
Catless downpipes, intercooler, intakes, meth injection and re tune should make it real fun
HKS just made an exhaust for the GR Yaris and it does improve the sound compared to the stock one (granted the stock exhaust was build to follow the emissions standards hence the quiet sound)
@@AbrahamArthemius saldy the HKS exhaust isn't UK accepted yet hopefully it does.
@@dankim3950 yeah the apparent "GRMN" has the same engine but can make 300 hp and its only overboosted this 3 cylinder is crazy.
Not a very hard thing to do tho
I love this generation of Civic so much. I have just the sport model in blue, and its so great... would really love the type R in this video though for sure. Such a badass road car.
I've seen quite a few here in Vancouver, Canada, really cool cars. Though I am planning on getting a GR Corolla next year because of it's AWD would be better in the snowy hills here. And giving Nissan angry looks... Make a new SE-R!
Sometimes, I curse myself for having born too late. Because by the time I start earning, the GR would have started appreciating.
Here's what you can do to lower its price: hate it
Jk I love the Yaris GR
I'm just in love with that Yaris, it's such a nice little capable car.
it just shows how much that Yaris was meant for rally from its quick acceleration, good grip and good brakes. Also how its high top speed isn't so great and lost the civic.
So true. Top speed is totally irrelevant in real live (from someone who bought a new Impreza in 1999)
@T D In the wet maybe... in the dry the CTR would surprise you, even Chris Harris said the grip in the CTR was comparable to it's AWD rivals.
@T D Drag races are bias towards AWD cars and FWD just can't compete, especially in the wet. In a rolling start (in the dry) the CTR would win. Check the Nürburgring times... the CTR is much quicker than the Yaris GR, it laps 12 seconds quicker...that's quite a difference but I still really like the Yaris GR, it's a cracking car.
@T D Roundabouts? What about corners? I mean it's horses for courses, if you rather a small nimble car then it's the Yaris obviously. If you rather a larger, more practical car then it's the Honda.
@@Monkiimagic As the commenter's previous point alludes to they're two different beasts that excel in their own areas. Either could trounce the other given the conditions so it depends on what you value. No doubt it'll suffer in the rolling races, being geared for rallying the final drive suffers and so it loses it's puff in higher speeds. Still impressive for what it is and how close it still was. It is a cracking car and so is the CTR, they're really top class.
I think on the track any circuit that can avail of performance in the 60-120+ range will cede advantage to higher powered rivals.
That said, one journo made a point on its 'off-the-line' party trick which is fun however you cut it with it's 0-30 being 1.48s. Faster than an Audi TT RS, Ferrari 488, Lambo Urus, Honda NSX, McLaren 570 and any model 3. I don't know the veracity of these claims since they're far-fetched, where the data is from and under what conditions. It's quite a thing say but even if it was all false and in striking distance - and it is unholily rapid off the line for what it is.
Here's the article if interested:

Did not expect this. If you got a chance... a Race between the GR and the Golf GTI would be (strangely) interesting to me!
I went to the mall cut my grass came back in and you guys are still running the quarter mile
The Yaris is probably the most interesting car in the last years to me. Small, good power + AWD 👍
Small, good power, 3 door, + AWD that can become RWD
All in a hot hatch
oh and dont forget the manual
and dont forget the manual handbrake
who said they dont make cars like they used to?
If only that interior wasn't ugly as heck, and the refinement wasn't so weak. To me that is important, which is why I can't ever own this car.

... there's information out there that supports what I am telling you. The companies do a lot to maintain their image of reliability but we have had 2 Toyota's and a Honda die in my family. An Acura TL from 2003 when they had weak transmissions, a 2008 RAV4 which through a rod and it turned out had an engine that was prone to having issues, and a 2006 Corolla which died even after taking it in multiple times.
A brand does not make a car reliable, and this is why you have cars under each brand that are great and some that you should stay away from.

@@NoneNone-kp1qc 25k cars across the world. Toyota only developed this because they needed a street legal variant of their race car for WRC 2020. Sadly the 2020 car is a no go due to WRC technical changes requiring a hybrid spec vehicle I believe.

that'd be like 400kg on average
Makes a huge difference. I dragged my csr against a friend and beat him by two cars. Because it was an easy win, another friend hopped in my car to record. He is 6'3 260 lbs. I got beat by 3 cars. Go figure! Weight is no joke.
1 passenger even matters
They are not identical cars my friend. Civic is in a higher class than Yaris, Civic is in the same class as the Corolla. The Yaris is in the same class as the Honda City. FYI
Yes because if you go to the track you always make sure you put as many as you can in the car
The race all 20 year olds were waiting for is here!
good to know im 20 again lolllolol
No 20 year old is buying that Yaris.
Im 20 again.yay
Im 19 and I will never have enough money to buy any of these but atleast I can watch the drag race for free
I'm 20(s).... just about hahah. I'll be ordering one.
Don’t rally cars drive off road, how is the yaris’s off-road game?
yes but mostly gravel, sand or dirt roads so they don't need that raised stance. For example VW using the Polo for rally
It's got awd as well for rally
I wish I lived in the UK only because of Car Wow. Great Chanel. Cheers from the American Southwest.
I imagine that Yaris is an absolute weapon in Autocross.
I actually found myself cheering like it were a sporting event.
Waiting for the Yaris to be forgotten about in a few years so I can pick up the next great tuner car for cheap.
yaris GR is born for rally, so it wont go fast at high rpm
that may be a fast Civic, but the other one is a “homologation special”!
Yes it is built for one purpose only WRC!
@@ivanangelov876 so you need cruise control in wrc?
@@South4153 And Bluetooth 😃
@@South4153 next year exactly this will be the car for Toyota Gazoo Racing !No need to be smartass here
@@South4153 It's still a street car, they needed the main mechanical functions to be homologated, but people expect things like A/C, media, etc.
Guy in Yaris sounds like he's in an aquarium or something
He’s a robot.
It’s Spongebob 🧽
HHAHAHAHHAHA
He's talking through a didgeridoo.
Hes talking with a can and a piece of string
FWD on wet .... gotta respect the Japanese for getting everything out of a compromised concept!
Comparing a Yaris to a Civic is like comparing an Up! to a Yaris.
Don't get me wrong, I've always liked Hondas, but the idea that I would even consider a fwd manual honda over an awd manual toyota is a joke.
*The only Yaris I want in my life.*
Why does the guy in the Yaris sound like he’s sitting inside a empty warehouse 😕
Exactly what I thought. I think he hates being in a yaris.
Well the Yaris is surprisingly spacious for its size
It’s called a radio
@@eacp9038 you must have not heard other people on radio’s before
@@mra8659 all radios sound different, the mic of the camera probably isn’t helping either
Both wonderful cars. Both special to drive.
A wet drag race doesn't tell you much that you don't already know.
Only in England is it acceptable to do a drag race comparison in the rain. Of course, if they actually waited for a sunny day, they'd only get off three races a year.
Love both cars but think Civic is a better buy to run daily. It’s larger and more practical, cheaper and I’d say faster in the dry. I would imagine if you were going to hold onto it though I think the residuals will be better on the Yaris given how unusual it is.
2:50 😀 When my colleagues asked, what the hell are you watching at?
Ppl shit on the type r by saying it’s still a civic.. then comes the gr Yaris and they praise this thing. A YARIS
@3:47 "the power steering malfunction on the dash he says" A big Pause @3:50 & there he goes "In a Toyota??? A Malfunction???😕" the Way he says it soooo FUNNYYY 😂🤣😂
