Watch Honda Civic Type R Drag Race Toyota GR Yaris In Hot Hatch Battle

The Honda Civic Type R and Toyota GR Yaris both offer buyers high-performance turbocharged engines, a manual gearbox, and chassis tuning for sharp cornering. A major difference between them is that Toyota is all-wheel drive, but the Honda only powers the front wheels. See what a difference this makes in a drag race in this video.

The specs for the Civic Type R in the United States are that its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder produces 315 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. The only gearbox choice is a six-speed manual with automatic rev-matching. It rides on three-mode adaptive dampers.
