Who's ready for a hot hatch drag race?! We've got the new VW Golf GTD going up against the Octavia vRS & the BMW 120d!
Now we know what you're thinking... And yes, you're right, they're all diesels. But wait! Just because they're diesel doesn't mean this won't make for an interesting drag race. Just check out how evenly matched these three competitors are...
First up we've got Mat in the GTD. It's powered by a 2-litre turbocharged diesel, which can produce 200hp & 400Nm. As for the Octavia vRS? Well, it's also powered by a 2-litre turbocharged diesel, and just like the GTD, it can put down 200hp & 400Nm!
And last up we have the BMW. It's also powered by a 2-litre turbocharged diesel, and while it matches the others on producing 400Nm of torque, it's oh-so slightly down on power, at 190hp.
So there's no denying they're pretty evenly matched, especially when you consider they're all FWD, they all weigh around 1,500kg, and they all cost around £32,000! But can you guess which will come out on top? You'll have to keep watching to find out!

I really enjoy these drag races actually getting to see every day cars go for it
BMW M550d + ecu remap vs old petrol sport car 😀
Fuck me everyday cars are now 33k 🤯
Much better. Niche there everyday cars if i had time, money and people with time on their hands to drive the others id do this all day every day. Would be a nightmare for manufacturers seeing their models raced. Id rent them from enterprise and do cooking models of each for example 520d vs e220d vs a6 40tdi. Or lesser cars 118d vs 180d
The GTD sounds like V8 from the inside and a vacuum cleaner from the outside

Weight makes much less of a different on diesel cars as they have heaps more torque

@@maxly501 why?

@carwow, so is it yes or no?
@@bahubalijio4394 its a no
@@bahubalijio4394 yianni said yes in a video a while back, waiting for mat now
Enjoyed the chemistry between these 3! More of these please! :)
I find it strange that the gtd does 0-62 in 7,2s, the 120d in 7,3s and the vrs in 7,4s when the outcome is like this. Would have been interesting to drive them on a bench to see what they really puts out.
We need a 520d vs 520i sort of race where the good ol’ diesels race against their petrol brothers 👀
I was about to say that hahaha! I reviewed the 520i Sport I loved it but 520d was way better suited with the Diesel engine. I could not review the 520d for some reason but if I were to buy a 5-Series I would possibly take the 520d because our traffic here is so bad -_-
Yeah 200hp petrol vs 200hp diesel, but with 300kg cargo like in real life (people, bags)
That is why diesels always kill me on a road trip. Turbo torque wins
Would also love to see the new 530d vs 530i given the petrol is a 4 banger.
You mean a sort of race where the good ol petrols race against their diesel illegitimate siblings.

Probably the best race I've seen in a while. The guests were perfect for this, sounds like some really cool and funny lads. Bring them back another time
That Skoda is really neat.. (except of course the diesel-scandal-banning soon) otherwise yeah..
Matt been watching Carwow for years and your reviews are golden. I have a Golf r mark 7 and reckon rolling race with 240hp Golf Gti- will be the closest and most surprising drag you could do. Please rolling race this with the leon cupra 290 for comparison 👍
Finally a daily’s cars drag race! 👏🏼👏🏼 more more pls

@@superbrit3845 Lol he doesn't always wins
Never thought I'd see the day that the Skoda would look the best by far.
The front of the new golf looks molten, and the bmw looks like an ogre. The Skoda is just perfectly tidy, balanced and sporty
Very underated cars , especially the vrs just got rid of mine and kinda miss it .
Skoda’s just don’t try too hard, it’s Vanilla ice-cream. Everybody will appreciate it. It’s just that amongst older people, the old image of Skoda is still imprinted in their minds, that’s why not so many people buy them. That and the fact it’s a very unfamiliar brand.
Yep!
@@magnustan841 what do you mean by not many people buy them? Octavia was best seller in czech republic, poland, austria, croatia and bosnia... Fabia is best seller in Slovakia and Octavia is in top 10 best selling cars in europe in 2020.
It'll be nice to see some of the DERV and petrol car equivalents from manufacturers go head to head.
For example;
BMW 340d versus 340i.
BMW X6M50d versus X6M50i.
Awesome race as always Mat!😸😸
I would still have the skoda octavia vrs estate, lovely looking car.
video games
somehow Octavia looks more like BMW than actual BMW
“Did I have him? Course I had him! I SMASHED him!” I like that guy! Lmao
That was actually impressive for the Golf...
Well done
It would be awesome if we could get some more diesel drag races. Especially from German cars. There are some pretty interesting engines...
u should do this mpg check at the end of all the challenges whether its a petrol or diesel drag race and btw loved todays drag race
These three together were such a cast. Their banter was, amazing. Never mind more diesel drag races. Oh no! We want more of these three drivers!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice race
I like this new MPG test keep that going👌
Considering it was the Estate version, the Octavia did pretty good!!
The BMW is just so freaking slow wow
I agree. Also consider that VW are hardly likely to let a Skoda beat a Golf GT.. Series I thought it performed dam good!
@@dougiemiller5030 Not only that, but the Octavia is much more practical, is comfy, spacious and a perfect daily driver; and finally, it's also good looking!
@@sander5457 Definitely VW is strong at that level
@@DavidGarcia29497 imo the best looking one from the trio. THough I gotta say, I dont like people calling it a hothatch... I mean its a pretty large car, how is it a hatchback? I wish skoda would make the scala in RS, so it would move into this territory of hothatches instead of the octavia.
All performance diesel golf's would be a fantastic race. See the progress of diesel engines over the last 20 years
come
Skoda looks the best, but I would say that.. I have the hatch back petrol vRS in that colour. Shame about the noise or lack of it but I love the thing.
I'd like to see a full review on the Golf GTD. Looks impressive.
Would love to see sedan version of Skoda in this race than this estate, becouse its a havier and a bit slower...would be better match for golf gtd
The Octavia looks really nice - good job skoda
*good job VW
@@elodgubcsi VW didn't design the octavia
@@elodgubcsi 🙄
@@blackcashew3278 dude... I know. But then the comment above me should say "well done Jozef Kabaň" Without Volkswagen, the Octavia (or any Skoda for that matter) would've never seen the sunlight. They fund the Skoda design team, they make the final decisions etc. That's why congratulating Skoda for designing a good looking car is pointless. It's either the man himself who drew it on a paper, or VW who manufactured the car itself.
@@elodgubcsi omg gtfo please
I really love BMW, I actually own two of them, E87 (first gen 1 series) and F30 (3 series), but I am really upset how BMW ruined the 1 series. They were such good cars in E and F series, but this new one is just bullshit.
Right f20 is faster than the new one series .
Actually still best in class imho. Even though I miss the 6cyl and rwd
Love these type of races more realistic in the real world
I love how Matt tries to act surprised in the race when he already knows he's in the fastest car
That yellow looks great on the golf in my opinion! The skoda looking sharp as well 👌
That DSG gearbox though ! Masterpiece !
Damn you guys are awesome. Such a nice race!
i really want carwow to make a shirt with matt quotes on it...like So what exactly happened? or click on the pop up banner up there, who agree?😂

I was always expecting this kind of fast diesel drag race! Finally, thanks Carwow!!!
The MPG at the end was absolutely hilarious 😂
Would love to see some tuned diesels. Darkside Developments with their tuned A6, and DieselpumpUK with a number of high hp om606 cars. Of course my favorites are big American diesel pickups.
Skoda all the way for me - all that wonderful space in the back!!
best looking car.. especially in that colour with those wheels
"It was pretty much neck and neck, but I'm gonna give the win to you Skoda. Simply because, Skoda - simply clever"
Der Skoda mit dem Gewicht vom Golf und er wer auf Platz 1. Mein Respekt an den Octavia, für mich der beste und auch das Aussehen Top👍👌
Nice video and very pleasing to see from an owner of a GTD in Kings Red. However, how stock was the GTD that VW supplied? The reason I ask is that according to the current brochure, you cannot (and never have been able to) get a GTD in Lime Yellow in the UK!

I've got a list of diesel drag races you should do.

6.VW polo TDI vs Vauxhall corsa 1.3 ctdi auto vs Ford Fiesta ecoblue.
BMW M550d against all the other stock diesel engines of the world 😁😁
I think we are underestimating some actual diesel engine, even Mercedes is working really well in the performance diesel engine world!
Really curious to see other diesel's drag races ❤
I feel like a certain future car enthusiast has a Skoda VRS just like that one on lease.
i own the 2016 model, and i am definitely a petrolhead!
I LIVE MY LIFE A QUARTER MILE AT A TIME. FOR THOSE 15 SECONDS OR MORE, ME AND MY DIESEL ARE FREE
Also drag race an old Audi S4/S5 v6 petrol vs new Audi S4/S5 v6 diesel
GTD, seat Leon FR 184bhp, Audi A3 184bhp, Merc A class 220D & new Ford Focus ST diesel
125d should be fair from BMW, still a 2.0 diesel
No 125d exists. 120d xDrive is 0.3s faster though to 60 but would still probably lose after that.
@@ags911 Yup, you are right. On the old generation it was 225d with 224 HP. BMW is going down, sad.
@@remuslupu5394 There was also a 125d with 224 hp (F20 LCI). I think what he meant was that the current generation (F40) doesn't have a 25d
I really like to see another manual transmission drag race! please...
That BMW looks ALOT like a Focus ST from the side!
I think the focus looks better than the bmw tbh
@@tommiddup398 agreed!
Excellent video!!
If the BMW has paddles, it’ll have a ‘hidden’ launch control system.
And they said the new 1 series wouldn’t be any different being front wheel. I had the last 120d lci and it was faster than the gtd
Yeh, my old E82 123d would spank that GTD
Well at least the new M cars perform well
@@gishg3833 would it? I had the 123d coupe and then a 7 gtd. bimmer was certainly a bit faster and noticeably faster above 85-90. However this new 8 has 200bhp and if the new r is anything to go by maybe closer to 210 or 215. I was a bit shocked at this gap in this race. VW playing down true figures methinks. Id fancy my bigger heavy b9 a4 40tdi to give that new 1 er a close race 🤣 so poor was its showing here.
@@bensmithkent22 The 123d has slightly more power, 204, and 400nm. Anyway I know my rear wheel drive BMW would be more fun to drive anyday
Bahahhahaha in your Dreams.. BMW is just slower then the VAGs beemer fanboy
I own mk6 golf 2 0 tdi. Has soft limiter but you can turn it off by holding ESP button till traction controll light starts flashing
You should definitively drag these diesels: Mercedes A-Class vs Audi A3 vs BMW 1 series
The race should have continued on the grass.
Just kidding, good race!
I can tell you Mat, A Skoda Octavia vRS Sedan would be much quicker
Maybe from a standing start but the estate would win from a rolling start
And the GTI would be even faster... What's your point? This is a hot diesel drag race
not much, maybe slightly quicker
Top speed, the octavia hatchback has better aero and is lighter as the estate.
i can completely understand all, because i have a 120xd. it is slow and it likes a lot of diesel. the engine has a lot of power, but software does not let it out. for a automatic xdrive with this weight it is very clean tough. at the cost of fuel and not the full power the engine could give.
Loved this drag race I've got a mk6 gtd and my dad's got a skoda superb they share the same commonrail 170bhp engine and 350nm of torque. I think the gtd is the best all rounder
I think it'd be worth mentioning the brand of tyres when you do the break test as a standard thing. It's been mentioned several times that the Michelin outperform the Pirelli
Skoda really went a long way with their design. By far the best looking car here
The 1 series looks the best.
Would be really cool to see a drag race with some rally cars like the Fabia R5 for example
Sometimes I forget how crazy a sentence like "Here comes the Škoda, it's gonna get past the BMW!" would have sounded a couple of years ago. It's mad what they've managed to achieve since being purchased by VW.
