Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
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!

Dear Mat/Carwow. I have a few editing suggestions if I may. Firstly, the font used in the thumbnail feels a bit old? and doesnt look modern. Also, I have noticed a bit of color shift between cameras in the same video. If the exterior B roll would look great the interior would be grainy. I understand the challenges of procuring cameras but itd be cool if you see this message. A bit of color correction is needed too. Thanks.

I still find it remarkable that my 15 year old 335i (N54) is as quick as these things, and it gaps Golf R's just the same as that 240i does, despite being manual. I even prefer the e92 shape. Think Ill be keeping it for a good while longer yet.

All you guys checking the winner between the Bimmer and VW was humorous: Reminds me of city workers patching potholes or doing any other job. It's a 2-man job, but there's 4 guys helping, standing with their hands in their pockets!

To be fair, a manual automatic transmission does exist.
It's called IMT and it's in a few Kias and Hyundais.
It's basically a manual without the clutch pedal.

I think vw deturned the golf R bcz that press car matt was using was just as quick as the M240I at a time of 12. 4s in a 1/4 mile. question is why?

That Honda didn't do too bad considering how it's priced, looks terrible though, the Golf definitely takes it in the looks department
