- It’s time for the Cupra Ateca to go head-to-head with the Golf R! Normally, the Ateca would roll up with the power to hit 300hp, slightly lower than the Golf R's 310hp. However, Mat's had a £1500 upgrade fitted under the bonnet! Will it make a difference? It's time to find out... Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Hey guys, to clarify - the £500 upgrade was only offered by SEAT as a special deal on top-of-the-range Leon Cupras. SEAT still don't offer the upgrade on the Ateca, but through ABT you can upgrade either car, just at a higher price.
carwow a much higher price. I got this upgrade installed and definitely wouldn’t buy it again! Its not worth the money
@@cupra-400-abt6 Yeah, that's because it doesn't give that extra +50hp. Remap it properly and you'll definitely feel the difference ;)
They don’t offer it in Finland though. I asked them and they said it voids the warranty.
In France you can have it if I m not wrong
Never make a tune from Abt, greetings from Germany
Mat, c'mon, listen to your subscribers - make a floaty text with the horsepower and torque, cuz it is much easier to perceive information when it's written
@Nai `Son No buddy, look at his previous videos, the comments that requested a floaty text got around 2,5k upvotes
Its not Mats fault, its up to the editors to do that
Yankov turn on captions
And also while he didnt talk about it this time floating text for mpgs especially converted to l/100kms would be great
Please add kilometres per hour and litres per hundred metrics please
Damn a close race for an SUV and a Hatchback... Plus it is a quick Hatchback
and its a boring hatchback. and its a overprized hatchback. and its a self destructing hatchback 😂😂
@@swagger0im0lachskost nah the Golf R is good, very overpriced though
@@swagger0im0lachskost swagger. You probably own a 1.2 litre car stfu. 😂😂😂
Golf is a good car... but imo over rated and definitely over-priced.
@@Showmetheevidence- snm, dont you think it's going to be wierd now, Ford announces they could give up on mondeo, they dont make the Jetta anymore, ngl, starting to hate change if all we are going to see are hatchbacks and SUVs 😂
Drag race:*end*

That is a carwow tradition m8

This Chanel is so mainstream
And so unique in the same time best of two worlds
Yosif Baiee I believe they are perfect because Matt gets to the point!
@@eastcoastcars9044 he's very humble and relatable, also a car nerd, who doesn't love a car nerd?
Im getting tired of no.5 also, what other Chanel's do you recommend ?
Like old top gear..
ABT should be offered to Ateca owners for sure. Wonder if anyone will mod the Ateca like they do the golf, a 500-600bhp Ateca would be a real laugh
Hgp has 480 ps turbos for the cupra ateca (or any of the ea888.3 models with the new paricle filter)
@@thomashuygen3246 nice! I'd imagine the Ateca can be tuned in a similar way to Golf R / S3. 600bhp by using meth injection would make it a VERY interesting car, however handing would become the real issue giving its size/shape
Oh c'mon, SEAT's design is pretty sporty and not that sleeper
@@Felipaugustoex2612 it does look sporty but not many would expect it to run sub 5 seconds 0-60, let alone possibly be running 4, 5 or 600 hp, would give many a shock at the traffic lights 🚀
@@relentlesspursuit6894 yeah that's true
Do more before-and-after ‘tuning’ clips?! Loved it!
For me, Seat/Cupra make the most beautiful cars in VW group.
Nakic Shame about the interiors.
For me they are really nice in interiors.
@@mendistudio Better than the pensioner interiors of VW
@@ResevoirGod Golf interior looks good to me. Maybe you're blind?
@@qeedzhr golf interior looks dull to me too mate.
I love these tests. Different and interesting, with the kind of stuff people might actually do to their cars :)
What i like about Mat is.. The content he come up with is continuously diverse. New and different type of cars, new experience almost every day! Thats a big thing to do. Hat tip
Good job Mat. 😃👍 Cheers from Italy.
Considering the weight difference I much more impressed by the Cupra definitely! And in its own class it’s mega.
Totally worth the 500 $
Crazy that it beat a golf R
£*
10th of a second wouldn't make a difference off the track
langra, but the point remains it is still worth 500 pounds 'cause it makes a .4 second difference and doesn't void the warranty.
It’s a wonder seat didn’t just give it more power from factory, mean their Leon cupra has like more power than the golf R, so why not this thing given its petrol and not diesel
The video says £1500 pounds not $500 dollars, there's a big difference between the two.
You do the best drag races, seriously. Every other channel starts with a preview of the race and then talks crap for 10 minutes before giving us the 30 seconds of racing. You get straight to the point. You deserve all the views you get.
You guys created the video we all wanted to see! Thank you!
£500 for 50bhp. Absolutely worth it! And keeps warranty. Wonder why vw don't offer the same upgrade under warranty
As a Golf R owner myself, I can confirm that VW does offer the same upgrade. It's an ECU tune that brings the car up from 292 HP to around 370. I live in the states and VW offers this for around $1500 and it doesn't void warranty. The dealer said that you can get the same tune for around $500 from a 3rd party company but that does void warranty, but I personally fancy keeping my 6-year warranty.
ethanDAboss11 never heard of this wtf can I get more info
In Germany this Box costs over 2500€!!!
Recently bought a similar device for my A4, 139 euros for adding 32ps and 36Nm to my EA888 1.8TFSI without any other hardware change. Now once the turbo kicks in at ~1500rpm the car simply push itself much faster than before.
In Germany its more expensive and VW warranty is gone, you just get some ABT 3rd party warranty. USA has some advantages there... 😎😉
I loved this video. Please make more videos where you compare the factory version with an upgraded version.
That would be very interesting!
Awesome video, I would definitely get the upgrade for the Ateca if I had one, what an improvement for only 500£!!!!!
Great content, keep it up! 🤙🏻
Jeeez this was filmed a couple months back 😂. Love the videos Matt, keep it up ❤️👏🏼‼️
How do u know?
Do a drag race between the BMW 3 series, Audi A4, Mercedes C class
And a Fiat Punto
aNd NiSsAn Gt R
Who will be driving them?... Mum's off to the supermarket or Reps off to sell some more phones?
Really like the video...especially 2nd part with ABT tuned Ateca! Should do more often such vids really! Chip tuning works and its worth it!
Banger of a video as always Matt! Loved this one especially as I love to see what a simple tune does to an otherwise standard car and a top of the range model on another one.
Favourite one is a similar one by Chris Harris with an Audi S4 & RS4 with a before and after plug-in tune. Keep up the great work as always.
Mat....... please do a review of the new BMW 1 series and X1. As always love your videos
We need a drag race between Audi RSQ3 vs Audi SQ5 vs Audi SQ7
Great video as always! That upgrade made all the difference
Damn!!! It was delicious! Thanks man! Always to see you for these very good video!! 👍👍
Mat IS a car legend 😎🏆!!!!
ABT need to make that available for the Golf R and covered by warranty!
Congratz on 2 million subs, I've been really following you guys for a while now..
Quality content as always!
The fact that that bus can keep up with the Golf is impressive in its self
Cupra's be like
Could we finally get a full review of the Cupra Ateca by Matt? :-)
LOVE THE DRAG RACES!
I absolutely love this channel
Please make a video cupra 300 st 4drive vs golf 7r
Cupra 300 vs golf 7r hgp or abt
I mean seat Leon cupra st 4drive which is station wagon with 4x4 and Golf 7 R this is what I want to see, and I always wondered who is the fastest from these two.
Do more videos with tune cars
Fab video I like how there was an upgrade but the upgrade was something available from seat themselves
Whenever Mat is sitting in a car and utters the words "Will it beat...?" I usually shout "Yes!" at the screen (cos I know what Mat's like)! 😂
could you do a video on the different generations of Polo GTI?
No
Joe Stinton Fake account bud, nice try
And the ABT tune test for it also.
Respect Carwow FROM ALGERIA 🇩🇿 To Dubaï 🇦🇪🔥💰💯🏁🏁🏁
Nice racing Matt!
My weekend is complete love this
carwow is the reason i woke up this morning
feel sorry for you
I also thought you would be mentioning that "less aerodynamic shape" 😂
He mentioned the Cupra has more drag.
Great Video greetings from Berlin 💪💪💪
yes we need more videos like this, more upgrades.
3:33 you mean “I got cupra excited by that “ 😉
no
Super*
Nice vid.
Would love to see the superb 280 against that golf r.
It has some superb quarter mile times for its engine power and torque (pardon the pun )
Very nice video 👍🏽👍🏽
You should do leon cupra r vs golf r
Leon cupra r is a fwd and Golf R is a awd, so no sense making a drag. Better Leon cupra r ST vs Golf R.
@@markfanning741 it actually is. The leon cupras are only 4drive on the ST variants.
With an extra tuned 50bhp its bount to beat the Golf R ...💪😁👍🔝📈🚗💨
Great job 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome videos , love your style. Follower from México
Really impressed about the Ateca's performance, especially as it allows the driver to go on roads that can prove a bit hostile to a Golf R
Hostile roads with that low profile tires? If by hostile roads you mean smooth unpaved roads, the Golf can do that aswell.
@@leaferrafael in my country some roads feature some fancy 17cm high speed bumps, with a Gulf R one scratches the bottom of it every time while the Ateca is likely to survive that, plus tires can be swapped for something more off roady but nothing can be really done to raise a Gulf R that much
Audi should also offer the ABT upgrade on their configurator in my opinion, for like the RS4 or RS5 for example
Abt is a completely independent family business and has no connection to Audi except that they lead the race as a team in Formula E and DTM. Therefore, Abt will never give accessories in the configurator. Abt only distributes that himself
Didn’t Audi have a collaboration with Abt for the 705PS RS6 Nogaro Edition though ? So i guess they could do that again.
@@Kaisuke971 Yes you are right. The Abt power upgrade was only available in this strictly limited special edition. That's why I do not think they offer it on several models. The power upgrades are also a core business of Abt. That's why they certainly could that, but do not want that, I think. They would lose many customers if that already is available at the Audi configurator.
Edit: Maybe you could ask Daniel Abt on his channel for it
I like how you guys upgraded the car 👏🏾
YES!!! Another race!
2020 Supra vs 5 or so BMW all lined up. For the fam boys 😂 Not me 👍
Saw in the background it must of been pramwow having a drag race
252Scooby our editors were wondering if you’d notice 😏🤭
Omg I’m big fan I love ur car vids
Woo so exciting, I would like to see more videos of tuned cars!
yes you can
With the tuned version obviously but the brakes are better on the golf
Yeah, an effect of the car being lighter no doubt.
Not only is the Cupra faster, but is 100% less likely to be stolen. A great sleeper SUV.
@@MT-kx2uc stupid?
0:36 That stroller jogger in the background xD ABT: Get on it!
Loved you included the abt
Gold R is such a capable car and as a daily its almost perfect!
@@Chris-go7ge realistically you can average 37mpg, which isn't so bad...driving with a light foot of course!
Never take it out of Eco mode.
"Do you think it's worth it?"
Geez... I don't know... I'd probably want more hp/Nm in my SPORT-utility-vehicle. 🙄😂
My younger brother owns the 310 bhp mk 7.5 and it's really fast off the line with very little drama and impressed me every time ive experienced it's launch.so the ateca being virtually identical off the line is impressive.. But £500 for such a small difference isn't worth it. If the golf had the same tune i think we all know what the result would be! However the ateca is v impressive for it's size. Another awesome video thank's, I enjoyed that and had no idea it'd be so close😱.awesome content as allways.j
Mat love your work .....but would really love to see more performance tunning on cars you review get the cars tuned and tell us how good they are and how the perform !!
Cupra ateca vs Skoda kodiaq vrs!
First baby ye keep up the awesome vids.
I found this tuning comparisons very interesting. Would have liked to see a last and 3rd match, now with the abt upgrade fitted to the golf r
Brilliant video
1:02 that's definitely some kind of security camera footage when looking at the quality x3
well it is same engine so tune will also be available on golf
It is but no warranty from VW unlike Seat
If you were having a race you would be in 2nd gear at 30 and all different cars have a different sweet spot in different gears ,brilliant vid as always cheers steve
Great video besides what is you favorite comfortable luxury compact suv
500 quid for warranty friendly tune? yes please
For what though? It didn't do much at all so it's pointless unless you race.
So are Seat going to officially offer the upgrade ? 👍
walentaz Rather have the cheaper equivalent which is the same under a different shell and spend the extra money saved, not buying a VW/Audi, on a holiday 😂😂
In South Africa they launched a couple Seats (we'd never had them before) and priced them ABOVE the equivalent VW model, because they were 'exclusive'.
How did that go? Well, Seats are no longer sold in SA 🤣
Creative- great
(would like to have had info on 2/4 wheel drive though)
Awesome vids.
Weird how the upgrade isn't warranty safe on the Golf R/Audi S3 but is warranty safe on the Leon Cupra...
@KING TDI but technically Audi & VW would be able to do it too
Good video as always
Keep up the good work carwow and matt
Thank u for highlighting my comment carwow
👍👍👍💓💓
Hey Mat, it would be fun if you could do a race with the new Golf 8 R and either The Cupra ateca or The Cupra Formentor :) love your chanel btw!
Can you do the same test with a GTI stage 1 vs a standard golf R?
Just run a Cupra against a Golf R in a drag. Easier comparison
Golf R wins due to better launch all day long
GTI will always fail against the golfs 4 motion, no point even trying theyre on different levels
@@robtoogood2860 Many quarter mile drag races on youtube which will sbow you the Leon Cupra beating the Golf R due to weight difference. The R does have a better launch but the Leon Cupra destroys it from 30 onwards.
@@conor9530 The GTI has a different engine/turbo to the R. The cupra has the same one, we're talking about GTI stage 1 VS R. A standard Cupra would still struggle vs standard R due to traction. Once rolling I'm sure the Cupra would have an advantage due to weight. The R/S3 is a better car for the UK climate imho
Drag race between 1000hp modded Golf vs other car(P.S Matt should be kept in disguise)
brice noronha next race, 3000hp citroën vs golf gti 140 hp
Perfect video
Buen video,saludos desde España 🇪🇸
But if you did that with the golf
That would be much faster
Yikes, the SUVs are coming to take our sports cars lunch money!
Yeah... Give the Golf the same upgrade then see what happens.
@@shane4836 wtf?
@@qwerty-gc8tn fuck off u bastard
@tom lewis leave him alone, his dad clearly just bought a Golf R.
Finally some Cupra Ateca videos!!
Matt , Daniel Abt is on youtube and yes he is indeed the son of Hans Jürgen Abt the owner of ABT sportsline . Would be nice to see more ABT cars on here !
Love these sort of vids Matt...Cheers.!
The extra 50hp of the Ateca looks a bit... shy! 🙄
shy? before it lost to the golf, after it beat the golf... the fuck you wanted? liftoff?
Casual. Don't know much about cars do ya? A pretty good result if you ask me. From falling behind constantly to actually winning against the golf R is a good result.
For the amount of drag that huge thing has I don't think it's so shy
Fuckingenius The Seat beat the Golf?? Not really.. the Ateca is now on the same level with the Golf. I have not seen faster in the video.
You should drag race the RcF track edition vs the LFA
Cool race
Matt. Would love to see you review the fast estates against one another. 340i, rs4, golf r estate etc.
Do a rematch with stage 1 on the r for the same price with 375hp/350lb...
thats not the point of this video.
What about BMW X7 or X6M vs Mercedes G63 AMG vs Audi Q8 or SQ7
I'd rather eat shit and die than see that group of cars all in one place 🤮
