How’s this for a drag race line-up! Mat’s got his hands on the Audi RS5, and it’s lining up against… A Honda Civic Wagovan?!
That’s right, we’ve got an Audi RS facing off against a Honda Civic wagon! But trust us, this is no normal Honda Civic…
So let’s see how the two cars compare. Starting with the Audi RS5, it’s powered by a 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 that can produce 450hp and 600Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic gearbox, and the car weighs in at 1,707kg. If you want to pick one up now, it will set you back around £76,000.
Then we come on to the Civic. The base car came with a 2.4-litre engine under the bonnet. But of course, it’s had a number of mods added to it, and it now puts out an eye-watering 834hp and 817Nm of torque! Power is sent to all four wheels via a sequential gearbox, and it’s super light, weighing in at just 1,100kg!
So the Honda has way more power, but is it any match for Audi’s Quattro AWD system? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

In a highly boosted Honda, you need to bounce it off the rev limiter until you reach a certain speed, so when you shift, it will stay on boost. Shortshifting will kill the performance.....
Yeah the owners probably didn't give him those direction.
Yeah he didn’t drive it properly.
It's a 2.4 though. He just can't drive.
You understand that there is no grip in that case :)
I’m impressed you know that 👍🏼
800hp on paper , 350hp on track....
As much as that?
👌👌
A little is good, but more is better 😂
More like.. no boost, and when you have boost, no traction.
😂
Sam is a really good addition to the program. Not only driverwise but personality and sens of humor wise!!
This is California👑🤡
Very good addition in fact.
I don't remember the name but the aggressive gear shift guy is nice to watch too
@@dhruv7758Jamie from officially gassed?
@@khandadonb111 yes
Ayyyyy! Thank you for letting me and the RS be apart of this! 🔥 you guys are so amazing!! Can’t wait to see you guys again! ❤️🔥
The rs5 is yours?
Finally a non-opf UK RS5. EU ruined cars.
@@ricardoferreira2038yes!
@@daytonars5😬
strange that the builder of the car didn't tell him not to short-shift the Civic that much. u hear it when he shifts as soon as he hits the limiter it falls of boost
I noticed that too. I was like uhhh that aint it bruh
He needs some taller gearing in that thing
What's crazy is he knows this for the launch but not the rest of the race. 😅
He shoulda let that limited bounce a lil longer.
If you don't shortshift that thing it will perform worse due to tire spin. The shortshifting is done to reduce spin. The car has too much power with not enough grip.
we need to do this race again but with someone in the civic that doesn't shortshift the whole time
Nothing is gonna change, its gonna lose drag race and its gonna win the roll race
@@CROWNZI i can see a future where this wins the drag race, but it's way more fun to see it's actual potential instead of this trashy performance
If you don't shortshift that thing it will perform worse due to tire spin. The shortshifting is done to reduce spin. The car has too much power with not enough grip.
The owner should have drove it ..
@@noobz5056 you have absolutely zero idea how high powered Hondas work… that thing needs to be absolutely ragged on the limiter. Short shifting drops it out of boost.
This is a perfect illustration on power band. You might high higher peak torque towards redline with a huge turbo, but the effective power band is extremely narrow due to torque being non-existent virtually anywhere else.
Yes, also if the driver knew the civic better he would’ve shifted differently
Aww. Boo hoo Hondaboy!@@jeffreyt02
This was one of the best CarWow videos ever!! I laughed, I was shook and then I laughed again! Brilliant work from editting department💪🏽❤️
Should just let the owners drive in the modified vs stock Drag races
bisi wouldve been great to have on camera too! absolute class he is
Agreed
I think also insurance purposes I think
Been saying this. It’s not fair to throw a tuned car into the hands of someone who doesn’t have 100+ hours of seat time.
@@yungjetsquee706what about putting TommyKaira R32GTR into the drag race against this 800bhp 4WD Civic?
Not driving it right, needs some serious limiter action to combat the lag and get the wheel speed up instead of shifting as soon as it hits redline.
agreed
true, but maybe he didn't wanna risk it cause its not his car
@@EmmanuelAU03Risk what? This is a Honda we are talking about..
@@EmmanuelAU03Bisimoto knows how to build cars… Sam just isn’t used to driving a big power Honda. Which is fine.. but they should’ve had Bisi driving it.
Watched enough Boosted Bois content to know thats how it's done.
Despite the criticism in the comments about how you need to drive this damn car, Sam was GREAT in this episode! Editor, you get a +1 from me on Sam's quote. 🤣
I agree, there are like a million videos out there of Civic´s owners doing drag races or rollings, I dont think these people watch this channel at all, just haters 😅
Great vid, I laughed when Matt pulled out the rolled up notes from the door card, I wonder what’s been going on there 🤔🤣
11:31 Proof that Sam is indeed a racing driver, because only a racing driver is that nonchalantly crazy!
Yeah man
Sam can’t even drive that car. Short shift everything
racing driver but doesnt understand cars
he's on an airstrip with a helmet.. not exactly crazy
@@atter136 this car*
that might be the slowest 760 hp/tonne I've ever seen
i think its spinning through all the gears
@@xnomisbradley8819 Ye you can hear each time he shifts it hits redline instantly when he touches the throttle
wider tyres might help?
@@magical_coww8866 yea exactly
He didn’t drive it properly.
As soon as I saw it in the thumbnail, I knew it was Bisi's wagon. Even that small it looks mega clean.😅
EDIT: 3:14 The editor went through the trouble of keeping the continuity of the explosion on that side shot. Nice detail. It would be unfair not to recognize it and acknowledge it publicly!😏
Sam is nuts! He needs a full time role alongside Mat, somehow! In fact Mat, Sam and Yanni are the perfect trio! More videos of you crazy trio, please!
The RS5 looks so much better without the front number plate ☺️👍🏼
This is California
@@AngelValdovinos I'm jealous that you don't require a front plate in the US 🇺🇸 😄
@@MrDarrenNiceonly in Cali if I'm not wrong
@@MrDarrenNicewhat about using a front plate in Virginia?
It’s genuinely one of the best looking cars in the world. BMW, Benz and Porsche don’t make anything that look as nice as this
*On a side note:* The RS5 coupe is genuinely one of the best designed cars out there. The RS5 B9/B9.5 range, are soo elegant yet very aggressive. Love it !!
Couldn’t agree more, love my ‘21! It’s a beautiful rocket right out of the box!
Sadly it's underpowered compared to the M4.
It looks the same like every other car on the street..

Ohhh the Shuttleeee! Love these Civics and amazing Bisimoto made it to CARWOW! Been following since Motortrend back in 2008
That was a pretty entertaining series of races.
That crazy civic has a really small power band, it's not spending much time in the power band in the lower gears making it slower than its power figure would suggest, also probably got boost by gear to stop it spinning up.
Power is nothing if you cannot put it on the road.

@@user-ei1hr4zv4h Iam sure problem is with car setup not driver..
The area under the curve of this civic's power is like a needletip. 800hp over 7k, 150hp under 7k
The engineering / handling confidence shown via the HELMET is hilarious 😂😂😂
Wicked vid as always though 👊🏻😬👊🏻
I loved the quote "A little is good, more must be better" by Racing driver Sam😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly I nearly passed myself at that, excellent entertainment 😂
Same here! I will make the most of this quote!
First heard it years ago and then in the big bang theory (Leonard's mom) talking about alcohol...was strange to hear it here
Could be taken into consideration at many places 😂
That quote perfectly defines my outlook on life
never seen slower car with over 800 hp o.O
800 only in theory, not in application.
I've imported a "500WHP" boosted 350Z from the USA once, it made 370hp at the crank on our european dyno with horrible torque and power curves. It was well put together using quality parts, but the tune was really poor. A proper tuner managed to squeeze 550BHP out of it. I've sold the car two months after because it had absolutely no traction 😂. From my and my friends experience tuned cars from the USA are almost always really poorly tuned, have troubles with starting when cold, are jerky on partial throttle, misfire etc. Really weird tuning culture, most of the tuners in my country do a "street tuning session" after dyno tuning to ensure that the car works well on partial throttle etc, so even on a standalone ECU they are able to make the car work pretty much like a stock one.
@@arekb5951 lol, that's why they sold it to you, because they didn't know what are they doing :D
Sounds so sick! So happy to see it come pass the audi hard on the rolling race. I think we needed that one guy in the Acura RSX for this race lol
The "a little is good more must be better" was quite funny with his "in memory of picture pop up". Entertaining races.
Whooop! Wrrraaaaouu! Pop! Bang! Wrooooum! Whaaaaa!
That's 40 mph.😂
5:40 A rolled up dollar bill?? I see you Destiny, lol
Just what I commented, then came here to see if anyone one else picked up on it! You could see matt tired his hardest not to say it! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
LMFAO!!! I do not I swear 😂😭
That is one of the most exciting races. That was awesome. You guys should be racing cars like that new cars versus little imports they would be awesome. I enjoyed the video stay safe out there guys💪🏼🫡
Coming from a prior owner of a swapped civic hatchback, there’s a point where the power is too great for the civic…4WD or not. At 800hp, that car MUST have slicks to be able to utilize that kind of power. Like someone else said, you also have to allow the car to bounce on the rev limiter to eliminate as much boost lag as possible. Great video! Honda4Lyfe!!
The banter between mat and sam is like OG top gear levels. Also i love the little cutaway gags.
I've never seen a more poor built awd civic.
That should've been ahead even with 350hp
It's not poorly built tho, it was poorly driven in the video.
@@ii_dynastywrong, just too much power
@archiebrown6407 The car has a low 9s second quarter mile time, so you're definitely wrong. It's even down on power from its original build of 1000hp.
Carwow cheered me up during my exams now that it's over they still manage to entertain us
Great video
800hp + and it can’t put power down until 110mph utterly useless.
That RS5 launches faster than oil prices, bravo Audi.
Kid maybe study more and stop watching videos on you tube less
the porsche 911 turbo s launches faster than my grades going into the abyss
Audi slower than a Tesla
@@hassyg4083back to school kid
@@hassyg4083not every audi shut up tesla fan
Would love to know how they set the gearing in that Honda, unsure if it was that or the instant shifting that killed its drag race.
Hi Matt! I love your shows. I get your updates often. However, I don’t watch as many shows as I would like, because I don’t care for drag racing. I prefer your shows when you’re giving a traditional car review.
Thanks
that turbolag has a huge civic
No power, no power, no power ALL THE POWER IN THE WORLD INSTANT SHIFT no power, no power, no power, no power, ALL THE POWER IN THE WORLD INSTANT SHIFT no power, no power......er......
That Honda has no 800 hp for sure
It sure has, in the motor, on the wheels it's like 350 until 4th gear 😂
300 in reality!
ayo Matt is bringing some madness lately ^^
I cracked up at 9:35
"A little is good, more must be better." - Racing driver Sam 🤣🤣🤣
We need more of these tuned cars vs super cars on the channel
Nah. Stock car vs stock car.
Go watch @officiallygassed
Since when is a regular run off the mill RS5 a supercar, LMAO
we need lap times
Would love to see a tuned M8 vs the 992 911 Turbo S
It's because bisimoto makes cool cars that aren't fast, @bisimoto had an Odyssey that was the same when matched against other slower race cars
pure comedy gold this one!
god I LOVE Sam's attitude, so fun to watch him go 😂
There’s no day I’ll stop watching matt I think ima subscriber before or little after a million subs here and I rarely miss a video here great work Matt and team
real, i subbed at 1.2 mill or something...and i havent missed a single video since
Pre 1mil gang less goooo 💯😈
Civic needs a driver mod, when highly modified cars are on the channel the owners should be driving it, since they know how to properly
He’s a professional racing driver stop making excuses for these terrible undrivable cars there is nothing good about that car😂
I agree
@@Gabe_B-1fool u don't know crap about high powered hondas ur supposed to bang on them limiter not short shift it and drop out of boost after every shift
@@user-ei1hr4zv4hHonda is ass. A 400hp difference and still can’t beat a rs5. Banging of the limiter like you said will probably help it a bit but not enough to beat the rs5. Stop making excuses for an unbalanced car.
@@user-ei1hr4zv4hstop making excuses 😂
you should also do a speed trap at the end of the quarter mile
With No Abs! Auto full emergency stop is very difficult! GAreat Job Sam 🙌
all the power comes in between 8900 and 8950 RPM
You're being a bit generous with a whole 50rpm powerband. I thing more like 8927
Hahahah no:)
Damn 2.8k views in 5 literal minutes really shows how much Carwow has grew

this was actually such a neat race
Bisimoto’s cars are instantly recognizable
god that RS-5 is a beautiful beast.
It sounds like sh.t
V6 turbo. Meh
Rather a Lexus RCF
That Civic Wagovan looks cooler though
It simply is. I sure prefer the 4.2 TFSI, but the RS5 is the best performance “usable coupé”
Racing driver Sam is great. Glad he's on the channel more than he used to be.
12:44 I heard you loud and clear Matt, thanks for the info 👍🏻
Sam was funny as hell this vid 😂
Also they used to do the brake test from 70 mph then switched to 100. They could’ve done that since it is a little more difficult for the civic
800 hp of undriveable nonsense. Love it ❤
and will last only 1000 miles until next Expensive rebuild?!
Probably lol
@@svinche2expensive? Maybe a couple hundred bucks lmao
@@Griffin283 in the US maybe
@@svinche2it's a Honda gay boy it'd last longer than any German car that's forsure
Like other already commented, you cant short shift this car, need to ride on the limiter until the wheels stop spinning so the speed of the car matches the gearing. Then you would get on boost quicker next gear.
Sounds like a pretty stupid fkn car then. Redline the shit out of it bangimg it off the limiter makes it have hundreds more horsepower
Or just stop the undrivable nonsense and buy a nice car😂
@@Gabe_B-1 Nonsense? It's subjective. Undrivable? Not if you drive it as demonstrated in the video. A proper driver would know how to push the car to its full potential. Of course, not everything is done by a computer.
@@DinGroguDinDjarin nah, its just undrivable. Absolutely 0 potential to use this car on street, you need to take care of 1000 things to ride properly and still you can crash because of that stupid too big turbo power peak. If you want to have nice looking numbers on dyno then ok, if you want to drive then its shitty as hell.
Thank you MAT . I am always happy to see an RS5 . My dream car is the RS5 with the V8 4.2 liters and 450 hp . The mini HONDA dragster is a nightmare . Almost impossible to drive it.
Sam just wasn’t driving it properly. He’s shifting when it hits the limiter but the problem is he’s not actually going that speed so when he changes gear it then bogs down.
You have to change gear when you’re actually going the speed it says on the Speedo and not just because it’s spun the tyres. It’s not Sam’s fault as he wouldn’t be used to these kind of cars or driving in this way.
I thought i recognized that car built by Bisi. He had it on Jay Leno's Garage some time ago. Interestingly, his 1000?hp honda odyssey van was last place in racing lower powered cars in that Netflix series Fastest Car a few years ago. Big numbers aren't everything in actual racing. But definitely interesting and cool builds by him.
Please do a drag race with tractors! That would be hilarious :D
with Clarkson's Lamborghini :D
@@hitmaniak1737 omg this fusion would be crazy😂😂 But sadly I think Clarkson would not be allowed to take part in car wow because of the special contracts. But lamborghini tractor would still be wild
Top Gear did that:)
They already have. They call them lorries though. Yianni was in it.
That Quote was epic 😂😂😂😂
Ayo Matt! Mind me asking, what's taking so long with featuring DMO's RS6? I'm dying to see how that thing performs
Don't ever ask a racing driver if his sure about the brake test speed, he knows what he's doing and he has a tons of ⚽⚽. Even moreso if he's Irish.🤣 Really enjoyed this one.
That’s a Good quote from Sam.
“A little is good… more must be Better”
a civic with 800hp and 1100kg doing 12.6s lol this car doesn't have more than 400hp. Don't ruin your credibility
The viscous coupler on that civic is toast making it pretty much fwd
Bring more races like these with actual owners of the cars
Turbo lag called: your wanted at the race track.
More races like this please 🌟
Badhiya bohot badhiya Bhai mat wotson 👍
Rolled up note 😂😂😂 destiny been on the gear
Civic needs a 10 speed automatic to make some use of that power band haha.
Doesn't matter if it can't get the power down. It would just spin more if it was in power the whole time.
One of my favorite channels and I can't par take in ANY of the Carwow benefits. 😅
Haha had much fun to Look :D❤
What a cool little car 👊
Audis in USA don’t have particulate filters so breathe a bit better and sound a bit better
The rs3 8Y in USA come with completely different camshafts than the ones in Europe.
The civic needs a driver mod you can hear the car not being happy
sam is a racing driver so the only person who could probably launch it better is the people who made it
@FexAtila agreed and knowing it had 2 boost settings I'm sure it's probably not at the vehicles full potential
“A little is good more must be better” and that picture of Sam is rent free in my head forever now
What's with the "ya man, ya man, ya man" that's really funny 🤣🤣🤣
Civic has the fast and furious transmission
Ikr!
Dam Sam, best line ever, “a little is good, more must be better”…. Outstanding
He should learn how to drive it instead of short shifting it like a noob
You should do supercharged S4 or SQ5 with a tune vs newer turbo S4
I could also see that the Clutch ate Sam 🤣 the Gear must've cried lol
Absolutely love the Audi, gorgeous body. That color looks great too.
Civic needs a driver mod big time
The guy is a professional driver. I think he knows what he's doing.
@johnjerrehian4642 yes he's a pro driver, but maybe not accustomed to a high hp fwd car. You litterly have bang it off the limiter for a couple seconds, and just embrace the wheel spin. Once your cars actual mph goes a little higher, your next shift will be a little higher in the PowerBand. Was kinda sad to see, but that driver normally does a phenomenal job!! Cheers
@@questionableprojects U forget that there is a grip limitation and that even without that something exploded underneath the car
@@questionableprojects the civic is literally an AWD, there's just no traction and too much power for those tires combined with relatively stock gearing which aren't close ratio.
@@johnjerrehian4642 DMO should be driving it he is better qualified
Destiny knows how to party I seen that rolled up 5$ bill 😂❄️
😂😂 I swear I don’t lmao
Good ole bisi car for ya.
The thing with these cars is that they need their driver that knows and built em. A stock rs m something can be driven by anyone ... that thing without somebody knowing it's shift points etc wont do a thing. Even with Sam atthe wheel.
Sam literally giving up days of his life to drive the most undriveable cars. Legends never grow old
We want the off-road challenges back please!
A little is good, more must be better… words to live by
The civic sounded like a car from a 16-bit era racing game...
We need more tug of wars and off-road races

Great job. What about boba motors vw golf mk2
Only one man that can make that Honda purr. Your needing DMO in the drivers seat
