It’s drag race time!
Mat’s lining up in the latest VW Golf R, and he’s going head-to-head against a BMW M240i & a Honda Civic Type R!
Does the Golf R stand a chance? Let’s check out the stats! It’s powered by a 2-litre 4 cylinder which is good for 320hp & 420Nm of torque. It’s also equipped with four-wheel drive, and it tips the scales at 1,550kg.
The Civic Type R also has a 2-litre 4 cylinder under the bonnet, and its power is almost identical to the Golf, producing 320hp & 400Nm. However, not only is it only front-wheel drive, but it’s also a manual! But at least it’s the lightest car here, at 1,395kg.
Then we have the BMW. It’s housing a 3-litre straight-six engine that can produce 374hp & 500Nm. It’s also equipped with four-wheel drive, but it’s the heaviest car here, at 1,690kg!
So how will it play out - will the BMW’s weight prove the difference? There’s only one way to find out - LET’S RACE!

I'd much rather pay the extra 3 grand for the 240i and have a six cylinder engine than the golf R

@paulkennard5993 2 жыл бұрын

Yep - and I'd look closely at the residuals for the R too. I bought an AMG A45 in 2016 as it was only about £75 more per month than a R due to a far better MGFV as the lease companies were not going to be deluged by them 3 years hence. The Golf also felt like it needed to be thrashed to come alive, whilst I could enjoy the 45 in Sport+/Race mode everywhere and in Comfort my wife could just pootle in it. This time I went for the M240i XDrive as the Golf seemed too dear, the 45S a bit 'bling' and although I thought the M3 Comp was awesome when I drove it, I just couldn't see, day to day, where my extra £30k would have gone for 95% of the time. Mind you, ordered in January and no clue when it'll turn up...

@leccybadger 2 жыл бұрын

I bought an M240i and never even considered the VW as an alternative...why have 4 cylinders when 6 is so much better and smoother. The performance is staggering when you want it, the car trundles around happily and quietly when you don't and is a very lovely, quiet and comfy place to sit in. One very, very happy owner indeed. 👍🏻😁😁🥳

Pretty ridiculous. I could predict the outcome to begin with. Watched it for the brake test. The CTR isn't even remotely made for launching like a third of this test is based on. Those German cars are tailor made for that kind of crappy stuff. Not to mention launching places tremendous stress and strain on the clutch and box to handle that kind of power and torque. The 50 MPH test makes more sense.

Type R once again demostrating its remarkable engineering. Not only does it win drag and roll races against other FWD and manual gearbox competitors, but it can compete (and sometimes win roll races) against AWD DCT cars. Then when you factor in its performance around the track, faster than basically all its competitors in its segment including the 2 cars here, then you start realizing why the Type R is ahead in the engineering department. It's such a special car.

The tracks are very different, depending on their length, surface, weather, altitude and, of course, the design of the circuit... There are short and tight circuits, with many curves, others fast with long straights, others mixed, with fast curves. and slow and intermediate straights. Even cars could make a lot of difference depending on the context.

It would be similar to an Acura TLX 2.0T SH-AWD vs a TLX 2.0T FWD. The SH-AWD will get the jump off the line, but the FWD will walk it down afterwards and win by a car length or two. AWD adds weight and drivetrain losses, but adds to grip and handling.
