2022 Honda Civic Si vs Toyota GR86 // DRAG & ROLL RACE

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The 2022 Toyota GR86 ($31,490 CAD starting, $27,700 USD starting) and the 2022 Honda Civic Si ($33,750 CAD starting, $27,300 USD starting) have lined up for a drag race at Willow Springs. Both are equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip differential, and have a similar starting price. In this battle of different powertrains, will the lighter and more powerful rear-drive GR86 be able to claim a naturally aspirated victory? Or will the superior torque in the turbocharged front-drive SI be enough to propel it off the line and claim the win? Things don’t always go as planned during an off-the-cuff drag race! We hope you enjoy the episode! SUBSCRIBE!

If you want a near 40 mpg sedan with more than enough Handling & Speed keep you entertained when the wife & kids aren't around, get the Civic Si. P.S since everyone is mad in the comments, i reference the Cayman as i've gotten the chance to experience it in-person.

    Very entertaining to watch! Loved this comparison (even if we all know straight line speed isnt what either of these cars are about). They are actually the 2 cars I'm cross shopping at the moment, I used to have a 14 Si and loved it. I was a little disappointed to hear that peak power on the new Si was even lower than my 9th gen Si, but all the glowing reviews about the shifter keep this car on my shortlist. On the other hand the GR86 sounds like such a special car, and since it'll likely be my last ICE car that I'll keep for an insanely long time itd be nice to have something little more special than a Civic. If I had the money Id probably dump it on the upcoming Type-R but thats a little too much of a stretch haha.

It’s not fast but way faster than average traffic. I never really liked the look of older civics but I think this new one is really clean and the interior is very premium. It’s a blast to drive feels just like a miata with back seats and w/ the LSD it really pulls out of corners. Would recommebd

One shopping for an Si who wants a real rear seat and comfort, space would not purchase a 86. And one who just would want a coupe would purchase the 86 as it’s more sporty. Miata vs 86 is a better comparison. But none the less this was fun to see. But what I give you credit and why I love your show… the banter between you too, corny jokes… knowledge and just fun all around. Keep it up guys. Love your stuff!!

I am unsure which of these two cars would be more reliable to own? Other than a drag race, which one is more enjoyable as an everyday driver? And lastly, If I am willing to buy a turbo sedan, How about the new Elantra N ??

Backs up what the magazines have been saying - this car is substantially better than the first generation and it is a real sports car now.

There's also the Practical aspect of if I buy the gr86, I'll probably have to keep my Fiesta also because I sometimes need the haul things, and yes there's a lot more space in the back of a Fiesta ST than the gr86. If I get the N, theres 17k I can put down, because my six-year-old Fiesta is now worth 3 grand less than it was when I bought it new... insane.
