- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มิ.ย. 2023
- The Honda City is available in 2 flavors. There's the strong hybrid e-HEV, with the 1.5-liter petrol engine and i.5 i-VTEC. How does hybrid stack up against petrol? We've got a drag strip to find out.

The city manual vs the hybrid will be interesting!
City Manual Vs Hybrid drag would have been much better to watch!
Yeah CVT is very laggy at first
Fun to Drive NA engines are very rare these days as Everyone brand is using Asthama to their Engines
The feel of driving revv friendly,fun to drive,Raw iVTEC engine is still there👑🔥
Not degrading IVTEC but the "Turbo" is a Turbo once it kicks in then the car pulls so strongly that u don't miss the NA except for the city commutes (that too sometimes) but that isn't a deal breaker....
Someone tried to be cool by calling turbo as asthma inhaler pump and got jumbled in their words.. so kids dont try to be cool unnecessarily especially when you are not sure how to use words
Using asthma to engines....haha it equates to a person with asthma running faster than non-asthmatics
Haha clearly you don't have clue how turbocharger works.
Someone is justifying NA engines whereas Honda is providing 180ps 1.5T in other countries 🥲
Always down for an entertaining drag race!
For a secs i thought the VTEC is manual 🤦
for a what?
@@TotalySidYT 😂😂😂😂😂
Me also
We can get Ivtec working even in cvt with paddleshifters
It should have been manual. Cvt sucks
LESSGOOO was waiting for this !!
Please include in motion acceleration test as well. It's more relevant for day to day driving.
How is the power needle on your eHEV red?? Is this a pre production model? Mine is white
Bring Virtus 1.5 vs Verna 1.5
Can you do a virtus 1.5 vs Verna 1.5
Can u also incorporate roll races, as some cars might do better in those.
Try to test out (civic ehev & city ehev) very exited
I feel it would be better if round 2 is conducted after switching drivers.
Best of 3, please!
Still king of the segment 😎
Bring the manual, that CVT launch was too smooth IMO...
There should also be a drag test starting from 30kmph
Please a longer video with a longer track
Actually cvt without electric assist gave a very slow start... If the city would have been manual it could have done faster
Bring on the City manual vs E:HeV
Surprising For e-Hev ! Yes it has ample torque. ❤! But I hate automatic 😒
It should been between petrol manual and the hybrid
waiting for VIRTUS 1.5 MT
Try s cross 1.5 petrol manual please
Please do VW Virtus 1.0 TSI MT VS Honda city 1.5 MT
Plz ioniq 5 and ev6
Great compotition
Virtus: recording the race ;)
Hyryder hybrid vs neo hybrid pls
Please make one on MT vs Cvt🤌❤️🔥‼️🌟🌟
Should be hybrid vs Manual 😢
Should've roped in the manual City
Just upload 1 long video of the drag races, you start to enjoy the video but it's over already. 😢
M340i vs EV 6 GT please..
O to 100 matters the most that is nessasary for day to day life city and highway commute ehev is better.
Want a drag race of an MPV with a RV
City Hybrid clinched the win.
it alos matters who is behind the wheels
Slavia 1.5 MT vs Verna 1.5 turbo plz
There is a misconception that electric/hybrid cars are faster, which is incorrect. Such cars are not Fast, they are just quick.
i just did not see 3 wheeler loader in tha drag strip in intro.
Should have chosen city hybrid
Virtus DSG vs Verna DCT please
When petrol version use S sport mode will be win.
Bring the manual.
most cars on our roads are manual still all the channels keep pushing automatics on us! Why? Do they force you or something>
We need the MG Gloster against the Fortuner
You always bring cvt. Bring petrol manual for drag race
Hybrid with CVT, and regular petrol with manual, that would be unfair…
They already did a drag race between the Gen 5 City and Gen 1 City, both with manual gearboxes… The Gen 5 won by a difference of just 1 sec, due to little extra power and larger wheels compared to Gen 1…
I had a doubt since a long time.. The premium Honda charging for City Hybrid over the normal City is justified or not? I think yes, it has good efficiency which can cover up the running costs, and it has much better torque and performance over the regular City.. Or is it best to settle with Verna or Virtus GT??
Open to share your views 👍👇
It's worth it if at least Honda getting that additional cost. Currently Govt taxes Hybrids like same that of ICE Cars, which means Virtus, Verna are more value for money. BUT, if you daily run say 100+ km in tight city traffic, City Hybrid is the only car that will offer phenomenal efficiency in that use case, combined with the smoothness of Honda
Virtus vs verna
Virtus on right
Where's that Autorickshaw race 🤔
Auto car make more off roading videos
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Me petrol mt is best
Shouldve raced with the Manual city
That would be unfair… It would make sense if they had raced the petrol CVT with the petrol manual… But we all know for a fact that whether it be the City petrol CVT or the Hybrid vs the petrol manual, the manual would definitely win…
What would make even better sense would be to race the City petrol manual with the City diesel…
@@dr.chetankolli then isn't this race unfair since the hybrid city has the advantage of the hybrid tech and having maximum electric torque at the start of the race?
@@dr.chetankolli what I thought was that it would be more fun to see the race of the same car with different tech but with there best possible variant/transmission.
I can say for sure that the hybrid would win since it has the extra electric torque but I couldn't say the same if we are talking about hybrid vs petrol MT
Waiting for a Virtus vs City
Virtus is the clear winner 😂 I don't even need to watch the video for the results
@@jeet9016 1L
See Prathams video. Hybrid has a huge lead on Virtus GT till 120 which may very well make it win the drag.
after all it’s an overhyped super slow na engine which is good for nothing 😂 may be it redlines at 7k rpm so what every other petrol engine redlines at 6.5-7k rpm but atleast they are fast not like this sluggish ivtec only noise no performance 😂 even new Verna 1.5na feels faster than this shit
We don't see many Hyundai cars in your drag races.
I don't see the logic of them wearing helmet in a family sedan especially in a drag race and specially a bike helmet.
Haven't seen a single City ehev on road aso now😂
I have seen a lot in Delhi
It was evident from the video that HONDA City will be the winner ! 😂
I don't think the Petrol City was launched properly
Being a CVT they don’t launch properly unlike a manual… Check the Civic vs Innova drag race video… Had the Civic been a manual, it would’ve beaten the Innova by a long shot… Unfortunately they did a drag race between a petrol CVT and a diesel torque convertor, they should’ve used the diesel manual instead… But the only available options for the Civic were petrol CVT and diesel manual… Of course it flopped big time in the Indian market…
2003 vtec can do the same quarter mile or may be better even after 20 years 😂😂😂
CHARLES DICKENS WON 😂
Stop using this cvt car for races. It only makes 80 hp, and never goes above 4K rpm. I have so many of these nonsensical races it blows my mind.
First to write First
Wtf where idtec
Pretty sure the Honda City will win this😅😅
Helmet used in car 😂
Verdict is both are extremely slow
may b your brain is.. definitely not i-vtec
@@kill3rbyysight may be it's okay for you to get everything late in life. By the time the vtech delivers some power you would runout of road
" It's not how fast you go it's about how u go fast" ever heard of this? if other cars r speed then Honda City is an Experience
@@kill3rbyysight exactly my point. I have two Honda's and a bmw..Honda is my go to car not because it's fast but because what it is. But this particular video is all about speed. My comment was concerning a quarter mile drag only
calling i-vtec extremely slow is also not feasible... 1.5 ivtec has appropriate power to hv fun with.. it was also just 1 sec behind bmw on a track cus of its driving dynamics... no other car under 40 lac cud beat City.. drag race is a different game though
Big fat fly 🤮 5th gen & 4th gen
