I Drag Raced the SMALLEST Cars in the World!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Kei car drag race let’s goooooo!
We’ve got our hands on five Japanese Kei cars, and these micro machines are about to go head-to-head over the quarter-mile to see which is quickest!
Lining up we have a Daihatsu Copen, Autozam AZ-1, Suzuki Alto Works, Suzuki Cappuccino and a Mitsubishi Minica Dangan!
For those not in the know, Kei cars (known by many as Japanese city cars or Japanese microcars) are the smallest road-legal cars with restricted dimensions and engine capacity. As a result, all five cars come with a 660cc 3-cylinder turbo engine, and they all produce 64hp!
The torque & weight figures do vary slightly, though. For example, the Copen has the most torque, at 108Nm, while the Mitsubishi only has 75Nm!
You know what time it is… LET’S RACE!

    In some way I agree but those little cars were actually quite expensive and as a everyday car a modern mx5 is probably a much better car. The honda S660 weights about 830 kg which is not that light considering how small the car and engine are. A 2020 Suzuki Swift 1.0 BoosterJet 111 is just a few dozen kilos heavier (865). I really wanted toyota to build the S-FR which was a smaller, more affordable mx-5 like coupe (still bigger than a kei car) but it looks like it will never happen.

    You can easily tune these to decent power too. I've seen the Alto thing beat an older 1.8t TT and all it had was a chip and I think the turbo cartridge had been changed to one from like a 1.9 jtd from a Vectra sri or a mondo tdi I'm sure. It was just some 'scrap yard special' parts on it and it was beating 200bhp stuff no problem too.

Around 100hp seems to be the sensible number for these tiny engines. It's enough for that kind of cars actually.

    My father's family also had a Mira for family use. Last time it was used by my father's 2nd youngest brother. The story of how i started to love these K cars is weird but long story short, covid kicked in, uncle was stranded in a different country and we had to drive the car back to our hometown in a different state (as he parked it in a public parking spot when the lockdown happened). It was cramped, so cramped i couldn't even stretch my leg (i was 160cm back then). The car screams like crazy going 80+ and once it goes slightly over 95 it rattles like crazy. Still it was a very fun car to sit in an just ride/drive. They still use it from time to time since they live in a small town. A lil bit unrelated but im getting a daihatsu ayla rebadge recently, can't wait to get my hands on it.

    Would be interesting to do a dyno drag race on these as I'm pretty sure they're not all producing 64 bhp. Remember the 280 bhp gentleman's agreement in Japan where some cars were putting out 300-320 bhp!

    you’re right. the autozam and the cappuccino make closer to 80hp. my car makes about the right 64hp, the dangan probably makes a bit more around 70hp, and the cappuccino was underboosting on the day.

    @@keio5274 The Cappuccino owner put it back to stock for the video, but something was wrong and it wasn't building boost - dunno if it was boost leak or the wastegate was stuck open, but it apparently capped out at 0.35 bar of boost (less than half of stock). Got that info from both the AZ-1 and the Cappuccino owner. Kind of a shame. I've got an AZ-1 and the Cappuccino is definitely the main rival. It would've been good to see a closer race between the two

    The Suzukis and Autozam may have the same engine (all of them originally had the F6A, but depending on the model, later years had a K6). Though it's interesting to see how the same engine does in different chassis, I probably would've tried to get a Honda (Beat, Today RS, Z, or maybe S660) and a Subaru (Vivio RX-R or Pleo RS) in the mix. Or next time, race some kei vans: Suzukis offered turbos while Subarus offered superchargers, though Daihatsu's 4v DOHC engines were quite competitive.

    In Japan they still do but less of the sporty stuff. You can technically still get a newer Copen as well as Honda S660 if you're not fancying older cars. There's also the Alto still around. Reason why these cars aren't the stuff everywhere? Other countries have enough space for bigger cars to run free, so kei sized cars aren't that useful.
