Toyota GR Yaris v MINI GP - DRAG RACE
Need help buying your next car? Click www.carwow.co.uk/help-me-carwow and my team and I will help you choose your ideal car at a fair price - from Mat Watson!
.............................................................
How’s this for a hot hatch drag race line-up! Mat’s sat in the carwow Car of the Year 2021, the Toyota GR Yaris, and it’s going up against the MINI GP!
First up we have the GR Yaris, which is powered by a 1.6-litre 3 cylinder turbo engine to deliver 261hp 360Nm. As for the MINI GP? Well, it’s up on power, with a 2-litre 4 cylinder engine providing 306hp and 450Nm of torque!
However, power isn’t everything! The track’s pretty wet, and while the MINI is only front-wheel-drive, the GR Yaris is all-wheel-drive! Will that be enough to push Mat through to victory? Or will the manual gearbox in the Toyota ultimately lose out to the automatic MINI?
There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

At 3:50 that Mini coming through with alot of more speed and a car length ahead than the Yaris, yet it wins only by a nose length. This video is suspicious. I think the mini actually won by 2 car lengths but for the video it's better to win by a nose length.🤷♂️

Let the race begin between the plastic engined internals Peugeot powered BMW cheep parts bin special Fake British mini vs a car that will last decades. Could you please try it with a different driver in the manual car, please. Nothing wrong with a church bell in the morning, but the end of it is for making sound, not piloting a manual car in a drag race.

Yaris - 1.6-litre 3 cylinder turbo engine 261hp 360Nm. MINI GP a 2-litre 4 cylinder - 306hp and 450Nm of torque - ну почти однокласники )))

Is that only me or does this Yaris sound a bit like Lexus LFA inside on high revs? I mean, it's probably mostly sound played through the speakers and I'm not comparing those 2 cars at all, but it sounds almost as if Toyota did it on purpose. Programming the sound so that it plays through the speakers? Why not take our best sounding car ever for that? :P

That MINI GP will decimate the Yaris GR if road isn't wet. Should be doing 13sec flat or lower. Hope they didn't do it intentionally to make the Yaris look god.

Automatic vrs manual, did you see the Mini pull away when he shifts? evey shift costs around .5 seconds. So for a 6 speed thats 3 seconds. New Auto transmissions rock.
