Who’s ready for an absolutely wild petrol v EV drag race?!
Mat’s got his hands on the awesome Porsche 911 GT3 RS and he’s going up against a classic VW Beetle… Which has had the engine ripped out and replaced with a battery & motor from a Tesla Model S!
When it comes to the stats, we need to start off with the Beetle, don’t we? It was originally released in 1972, and thanks to the Model S battery & motor it can put down 450hp & 675Nm of torque! It’s still pretty damn light, weighing in at around 1,050kg.
As for the Porsche, it’s certainly got the power advantage over the VW, with its 4-litre naturally-aspirated flat-six producing 520hp & 470Nm! It’s a fair bit heavier though, tipping the scales at 1,430kg.
So will electric power prevail? Or will the Porsche leave the Beetle in its wake? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

Dude, bring this guy more often for the drag races... He seems like a pretty cool guy..
True!!
100% agree
His sideburns add extra 10 horsepower

@@kasunutube 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also it's nice to see mat racing against someone who actually KNOWS THE STATS on their own car, unlike someone he loves to race against
Throwing that shade... 👀
Yanni *cough cough 🤭
but we love to see yanni !!!
I love it when I get a notification saying that I got a new subscriber, it really makes my day, even my whole week ❤️❤️💖💖
i agree with you... usually if it's someone who just "loves to race against", i'll just close the tab. but this is really fun to watch!
This was the best drag race ever.
Richard is a fun guy would love to see him in future races too
He is back now :)
The amount of fun these two gentlemen were having was contagious 😂, they were like little kids, not to mention the moment Matt hopped in that Beetle 💯
We like this guy. What a car enthusiast. Bring him back with another classic.
fuck no,
hes butchering classics
Yea bring him back totally agree
@@tamtenmateusz9475 your life must be so sad 😔... Go touch grass
@@tamtenmateusz9475 I understand why you would say that but his energy is great
Exactly
That Richard guy, such a character. We should see him in more races
His genuine,
Not inchearged on changing the world.
Yes.
Plus we get to see more classics as EVs.
@@mariano7699 ?
He has the same character as matt
Moggy is a really nice guy. 💪⚡😉
The more I watch Matt, the more I realize how good he is at driving, his launches are almost perfect every run he does. There’s so many people who find it hard to get those perfect.
One must consider the aerodynamic drag on the Beetle is much higher at speed. Good stuff.
I laughed out loud when Matt laughs his ass off trying to do 'doughnut' in the Beetle...and then admits his laugh is similar to that of a seal.lmao
I love it when I get a notification saying that I got a new subscriber, it really makes my day, even my whole week ❤️❤️💖💖
@@kouroshnaderyofficial good
@@Pia-ho9dm thxxxx 💖
@@kouroshnaderyofficial why are you thanking me?
@@Pia-ho9dm because I’m kind and nice.
Richard is a character; he should be a recurring guest like Yanni!
Yes. I think Richard and Yanni would make a great addition to have more often.
no foreigner
Yeah mate, I would love to see more of his classical EV cars
totally agree
Or just replace him completely
Yeah, this was definitely a fun video. I can clearly see that you guys were genuinely having fun. 🤣
7:11-7:22 is a thing of beauty. I lost track of how many times I played it.
"This isn't my car so I'm gonna thrash the nuts off it."
Best quote of the year.
Matt: The story of my life..
Is that quote expressed by your "fried" enjoying torturing your car🤔 👀 😳 😕 😏 🤣
th-cam.com/video/FZhAu6jBknU/w-d-xo.html
Okay, to me, this was the most fun dragrace Ive seen on here. Thanks for the laugh! ☺ And more of that guy. Funny as heck! Cheers
exacly!
Agree, i think it's the most fun so far!
Yea Mat is a funny guy.
Ayup checkmark
I agree. Is he Australian? Accent sounds like it. He's excellent on camera and very funny.
Probably the best Carwow video I’ve ever watched, this guy knows how to have a good time he made this video work, he needs to be on the channel more often 🤟🏽
This is now my favorite channel . Always so exciting to watch 💯
such a guy richard is, we would love to see him around
He was a natural in front of the camera, really enjoyed his enthusiasm and knowledge on the love of his life. Him and Matt at the end like two peas in a very small pod.
Very enjoyable.
Richard needs to come back and drag race other electric cars and give his thoughts on them.....
@@otanaka4551 no thanks
@@zakelweHe is back with another EV
911 th like, lol
I respect this man, he shows his love to cars with big smile.
we need to see him again.
But in pain when mat did donuts in his car
@@stink4235 yeah that’s true
You will see him again. New video just came out
Truly Amazing! This is the race where I guess Matt had fun the most. You guys are the Best to race in World's Greatest Drag Race. I had a great laugh in this video. Thank you and you guys are so cool.
You guys just cracked me up !!
I had fun just watching, can't imagine how much fun you two had . Going by your smiling faces, I'd say it was a blast.
Thanks for the video !
"Do you know how fast you were going?"
"No, the speedometer only goes to 100mph".
Honestly is a virtu.

Well, how fast were you going in the Porsche?
Just add 1 MPH to that...
@@mariano7699 VITTU!
I love Richard’s personality, my man knows everything about his car, he looks so happy to do the drag race and just looks like a mad man who loves doing things to his cars and experiment with it
Yes! Please bring him back
It's always such a pleasure to watch your videos. Your enthusiasm is so genuine and wonderfully British. Such a relief from the phony America presenters I see so often on TH-cam. It's watching videos like this that makes me miss living in London. After 20 years living in SE Asia I've become a scooter rider which is not quite as exciting as the vehicles you get to drive. That having been said the streets of Saigon can be pretty scary at times.
That's the best drag race you've ever done! Richard's a great guy and I want one of those Beetles! I've never seen Mat so animated about a car, maybe other than the Rimac...says everything!
A race I couldn't never expect. We still need the Hypercar drag race Mat Watson
They'll be coming, don't you worry... 😏
@Fragezeichenboy no, carwow already done it,but i dont remember which one
@@carwow that smirk kinda sus
@@carwow YESSIR hopefully it's the 2 or 3 of the best Hypercars in the world.
@@adibafiq6945 yeah but wasn't a proper one unfortunately mate
He was a really good guest driver. You should have him on more, think you would make a really good team👍
I love it when I get a notification saying that I got a new subscriber, it really makes my day, even my whole week ❤️❤️💖💖
Agree
He has returned
This was so fun to watch! Thank you both!
I would love to see more of Richard's cars in action. He puts together really nice cars. Top bloke.
I've only been watching carwow for a few months, but watching Matt seal laugh trying to do donuts in the Beatle genuinely warmed my heard and made me laugh a bit. Good on ya mate.
Fancy seeing you here @NURK FPV. I have a car channel and a quad one… I mean I see you on things like Mark Rober, but a random comment on car wow 😜
Nurk! Your videos are what inspired me to build and fly quads. I think cars and quads go hand in hand. It's the same mechanical/electrical tinkering.
@@Tzuau78 yes he's a normal human just like us...
The same here. It looked like what cars like that are supposed to be.
Pure fun.
@@Feeeeerg Pure chaos for me.
Richard is a decent dude he seems genuine you can tell he loves cars he needs to be a regular, would love to see you yianni and Richard do drag races from now on.
Man these dude’s are awesome!! Great review guys.
Loved that race the old versus new in technology and petrol
Should've given Richard the specialist timing gear to see what his top speed was
Looking at GT3 speedo it seems like it max out at ~130mph.
I'd say a little less than 130mph cos at 128mph Matt was gaining on him, so he may have topped out at 126/127mph.
7:07 - 7:57 Matt’s uncontrolable laugh gives me hope regarding EV’s being fun and having a soul. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him laugh like that😂😂
I love it when I get a notification saying that I got a new subscriber, it really makes my day, even my whole week ❤️❤️💖💖
Old cars getting a new lease of life from a Tesla motor is actually an amazing idea! I hope manufactures catch on to it and start producing Miata like cars with ev motors instead of crossovers
@@kouroshnaderyofficial cool
mostly because it weighs nothing, modern cars will never be as light as older ones
@@Pia-ho9dm its bot
Damn, that porches throttle response is amazing. I didn't see the throttle pedal but from what I heard, damn that was as quick as the beetle.
Love the content can sit and watch your videos keep the content going and I am from South Africa an avid car lover.
Please get Richard involved in more videos, he’s great!
Richard and Matt match each others energy so well, great pairing makes for a great video!
Man, this is SUPER AMAZING 🤩, I have always had a dream of building my own car, but now, I am more inspired to build now. Great work ❤🌹
Even though I'll never probably own such power, Watching video like these motivate me more . Must respect for this video!
Aside from Yanni, i think Richard needs to feature more often with his electric cars. Top bloke!
yanni ??
@qopoy dnon He is back now! :)
He is back now! :)
You should invite Richard for more races. This guy is hilarious 😂
He's been invited
Love the electric beetle. An amazing EV conversion. Gave two cars a new lease on life.
Absolutely amazing Beetle build!
I’m more amazed by the fact that the beetle was THAT stable at higher speeds! Amazing drag race guys!
Yeah and that older car did great as well! 😅
I’m pretty certain it was the car that Guy Martin tried to do his record breaking run in. If it is, they took it to a wind tunnel. Without mods it would have taken off.
Richard: "not enough room between my legs"
Matt: "a lot room between mine"
It's actually the other way around
I enjoyed this video more than I thought i would
Girls😋😋
Really cool video and fantastic Bug!
Best guest that's EVER been on Carwow... this guy is a fking legend, yet you can see he enjoys life to the max as a humble man!!! Get him here permanently...
My god I love that chap. Bring him on more often, please, what a guy!
Richard has returned
Beetle be like:
"I am proud of my next next next generation".

Bots got you mate
@@guycha0s380 yeah mate. They are annoying.
@@hermanjohnson9180 why so?
This video put such a big smile on my face. What a wicked duo.
We need that guy more, love his energy
Bring Richard back with more classics as EVs for racing them.
He is back
@@razor_ramon_ Yea.
And he entertained as always.
Richard is awesome: really jolly, great lamb chops, and his facial expressions when racing are great! Please bring him back regularly!
Oh, and this was one of the most fun races on the channel ever, just as fun as the Chiron vs the F1 car!
Im sure they are called mutton chops haha
@@rhyswilliams4893 those things are on his cheek bones. Maybe they are called lamb chops instead lol
Needs to replace those mercury fillings...
That was one of the most entertaining Carwow vids I’ve ever watched! That beetle is well fast!!!
Puts a smile on my face the entire time watching these 2 beautiful brilliant cars race! =)
“That beetle is green, this beetle is green” 🤣🤣🤣 such a dad joke honestly, love it
"That's a nice looking beetle" - my dad when he saw a GT2 RS
Matt I have to give you credit, since Top Gear died in that sad accident, you have filled a void in my life as a car enthusiast
I love it when I get a notification saying that I got a new subscriber, it really makes my day, even my whole week ❤️❤️💖💖
Current top gear isn't that bad. Yeah we should forget about the Chris Evans season, but the others are all at the very least decent. And IMO current top gear is definitely better than the first season and the last few eps of the grand tour. Like I love the old gang, but they have lost some of their magic. (2nd and 3rd season of GT were pretty good though)
@@markeldik7057 without the trio it's dead
@@MisticDW Chris Harris is definitely a better car journalist than even all 3 combined and with paddy and Freddie it's pretty funny as well. Why the need to keep hating on it? Just be happy we have a good, big budget car show there are very few of those left. In my experience most people hating on current top gear haven't even watched the recent episodes, because it's not the trio. Just give it a chance and be open minded. It's not like the trio is so amazing themselves. Season 1 of the grand tour for example was an absolute dumpster fire IMO. Thankfully they got a bit on track the later seasons, but the last 2 specials felt horribly scripted again and just weren't that great. I'd watch, but wouldn't watch it twice unlike top gear.
@@markeldik7057 I don't care, I want to be entertained, if I want car journalism I'll read a magazine, I'm hating because the show is dead without the trio, they should have just killed of Top Gear. I'm not alone, TG used to be one of the most watched shows in the world for a reason, now it's not.
This is my new favourite carwow race! Top bloke with an awesome little car! Definitely get Richard back 👌🏻
SUPERB Race !! Great Vlog !! ................. Bless
Love Rich, he seems so enthusiastic, passionate and genuine about his cars.
Bring richard back for some more drag races , seems like a very genuine person and yeah also a car freak who loves experimenting with his cars !
Richard is back on this channel
Big thanks for this video! I laughed a lot too :D This Beetle is amazing! And the burnout with that sound :). ... or without usual sound... ohhh mmyyyyy... Thank you guys :)
Respect 💯 to the beetle what creation what a car the interior the exterior the combination everything about the beetle is brutal
From Kenya 🇰🇪, bring this guy again. Great energy, humble, fun, respectful , it goes on.

Best Drag race video so far!!
One of the best Carwow races. Richard comes across as a top bloke with a wicked car. Only downside....I think we've seen most of Mats fillings.🤣
My thoughts exactly!
Pop
A VW Beetle and Porsche 911 drag race is literally a father-son bonding moment 😂

@@michaelpascual3581 hi Michael.
One of the best episodes!!! Hands down!!!
Richard is a great sport. Had seen another video with him showing off what his company does. Had a brilliant 911 electric conversion.
I'd never seen Matt having this much fun before, that has to be the most fun you can have in an electric car...
Love that owner!! Definitely want to see him and his Beetle go up against more stuff. This was a lot of fun to watch Mat
That beetle got Matt laughing like a piglet 😂
Love this guy!! Bring him in more often 👍
This has to be one of the best drag races we've seen in a while!!
Bring this man back again ! He was an absolute pleasure and joy to watch
Now that is genuinely FUN! I'd love to have that beetle down here in Texas. Fun time!
I was smiling during the entire video! Loved it!
This guy is amazing! Bring him back for further episodes! Would love to watch more content!
I’d say that was a win for the beetle, he won the drag race, he got a much a better start in the rolling race, it’s not his fault his car max’s out at 130mph. That Beetle is rapid
who is max and the porsche is supposed to go 197 mph
@@lyte561 read the op’s comment again mate
@@Destroyah32 what?
Nah, that’s why rolling races exist, not our problem electric cars top out that fast
@@broshido2745 it's not all evs, just that EV. Would be interested to see the new bimmer i4M50 vs that Porsche 🤔
thank you carwow and Thank you Richard this video was amazing
Favorite episode so far!!!!!!!! So much fun!!!!!!!
Incredible race and amazing video! But I must admit that I was rooting for the Beetle the whole time lol
Hello verified dead channel.
@@programmar6391 Hello absolute nobody. Where's your content?
@@jase6709 😂😂😂😂😂
That Tesla motor is amazing
Ev conversions are the future. My channel covers it 👍⚡💪
I’ve been watching this channel for years and It’s been quite a while since Mat has been this entertained. Watching Mat made me laugh because he was laughing and having so much fun with this one ! 🤣🤣👍🏻 I hope we see Richard come back in more videos in the future !
EV conversions can be fun. I'm planning my TVR EV conversion to be fun 😉. My channel covers them and modified EV's
The exhaust sound on that GT3 is just beautiful 🤩
Cool Test! Not a Fan Of E/V but they are fun for a few minutes
11.1 seconds, all motor, with a table on the back and scaffolding inside. Impressive.
I already quite liked Richard because he makes some cool stuff. After seeing him encourage this hoonery I can only say he went up greatly in my estimation.
What a top lad getting you to fry tyres for the fans.
I very much enjoyed your video. Thanks
Great, great video. I was wating for the Bocho (the way we call the Wolkswagen here in Mexico) make a real competition against something called super internal combustión cars!! Congratulations!!!!
This Beetle is fantastic. Richard made a tremendous job here.
This guy Richard is just awesome. And the Pairing with Mat is just mind blowingly awesome. We need Richard to be a regular feature on drag races going forward just like Yanni.
Oh, he's just back
When ya'll did the burnout. . . I swear I could smell it all the way to here in Texas.
Loved this episode!
