This isn't a fair comparison though as the Fiesta ST is on Michelin Pilot Super Sports, the Yaris is on older Bridgestone Potenza's and the Polo GTi is on Michelin Pilot Sport 4's (if it's using the 18 inch tyre option). Rematch with all cars using the Pilot Super Sports? I still think the Fiesta ST is likely the fastest but I think the Yaris would clinch a close second on the same tyres.
@@VVH1997 In real world driving, it wouldn't make much difference, no. On a trackday, the type of tyre being used can make a substantial difference in lap time - especially when we are looking at a track of this length. The Michelin Pilot Super Sport has been proven to be the best tyre (for this tyre size). It is objectively faster than the bridgestone tyre.
@@nfsdanz isn't it better to upgrade to a semi slick if you want to have fun? i'm on the pilot sport 4s and dont like them also have a set of federals 565rsr budget semi slick love them ...
@@VVH1997 Oh yeah, of course you could go more hardcore than the Michelin Super Sport for fun. I just mean for the mainstream (which is more road biased), the Super Sport is the go to tyre in this category and is better than the other two tyre types used in this video (the Pilot Sport 4 and the Potenzas)...So just saying that its an unfair test when the other two cars have better tyres.
Nein, braucht aber auch niemand der aktiv flott ums Eck will, hört man ja beim Polo, aufs Gas und erst einmal Drehzahl hoch und dann passiert irgendwann mal was🙈 deshalb lässt der auch Zeit liegen😉
Finaly I found video that shows the potencial of little cheetah ST :) I'm pretty sure You can even go 2-3 seconds less :) PS I've ordered this pocket rocket for march 2021 :) I'm so excited!:D:D:D
Als langjähriger Yaris-Fahrer und Rennstreckenbesucher muss ich wirklich sagen, dass Toyota beim Yaris GRMN in Sachen Fahrwerksabstimmung versagt hat. Das Fahrverhalten des ersten Yaris TS sehe ich hier am besten beim Fiesta ST wiedergegeben. Daumen hoch für Ford in diesem Fall.
Immer wieder schön zu sehen wie Toyota bei Auto Bild verliert. In vielen anderen Tests gewinnt immer oder meist der Toyota GRMN im Vergleich. Aufgefallen ist auch das im Yaris die Ideallinie nicht optimal gefahren wurde.
Very odd. In every test the Yaris beats the Polo GTi without too much trouble, however in this test it loses. Hard to imagine. I'd choose the Yaris over the Polo any day, by the way...!
But the ST walks over both the VW and the Toyota despite being heavier than Toyota and despite having a manual rather than DSG like in VW, and despite being a dancer in the circuit, think about the STs laptime if it wasnt for that drift SO I feel the ST is the best FWD hot hatch ever made, period!! Toyota and VW can fight for the spoils
Our best laptime with the GRMN on the sportier tire was a 1:44,66 min, so still slower than the Fiesta and much slower than the Peugeot 208 GTI. You can find the laps here on the channel if you like.
@@ponygt6629 Toyota already won for me. :-) I don't care for automatics and love the supercharger over a 3-cilinder turbo. On another channel I saw the GRMN beat the Polo with more then 2 seconds on another circuit. I dare to admit that Fiesta is a tad faster, but I just don't like the car and its engine too much.
Well, then you are in for a LOSS, Do remember this is not a Fiesta RS and not a hardcore light weight stripped down FWD hot hatch like the Clio Cup RS or the GRMN Toyota, its got all the modern safety features, comforts and convenience and yet its able to beat the crap out of a track hooned Toyota, says a lot about Fords FWD car expertise Now the 3 cylinder turbo, first thing U must do is, get out of the internet and go drive the new Fiesta ST, I drive a 2013 Fiesta ST has 78000 kms on odo and I was a sucker for big NA engines and hated the theme of the i3s and small displacement engines, but just drove the new ST a few weeks back and boy,I was in for a surprise, true it dosent rev hard like an NA motor power tapers off past 5800 rpm, but the punch it offers in the 2000-5500 rpm in unmatched, coupled with Fords insane Quaife LSD, this thing steers way better than any FWD car I ve ever driven, yes, I even include the Megane RS Cup car in this list, the Megane obviously was slightly better but its too much focused machine, the ST is like the Porsche of FWD cars , VW, Toyota etc are no match for it.
@@ponygt6629 The Fiesta might be a little bit faster, but as I said before, I prefer the drivetrain of the Yaris (that's why I bought it). But I still don't understand how that Polo is faster here. Maybe because there are many straight lines in this circuit? It doesn't look to feel too comfortable in corners. In a corner filled track, I think the Yaris will win. As I said before, on another channel it "destroys" the Polo. I guess it depends on driver and circuit.
Clearly someone forgot to tell the ST that it's a FWD car because damn that little ST just loves to oversteer.
Unerwartet deutlicher Vorsprung. Langsam will ich den ST haben :D
Bekomm meinen im Dezember und kanns kaum erwarten!
Der ST hat auch das beste Fahrwerk 😎👌🏼 und das wird sogar trotz des einen Querstehers 4:12 belohnt😉👍🏼
Wir errechnen immer eine Idealzeit aus den besten Sektoren mehrerer Runden, der Quersteher war deshalb unerheblich für die Rundenzeit des Fiesta ;)
@@AUTOBILDSPORTSCARSTV könnt ihr im Detail noch darauf eingehen, wo ein 208gti Peugeot Sport noch die 2,5 Sekunden gutgemacht? Wäre noch interessant 😎
ST wins despite the extra passenger on board. Impressive!
Impressive result for the Fiesta St!
You got to love that Fiesta ST, surprised the Yaris was in last place.
Schönster Klang, beste Performance, ST geht!!!
Der ST, einfach geil und der Sound :D
Liebes Toyota Team, ist das jetzt euer Sondermodell "Master of the Nürburgquiiitsch"?
The Fiesta have Performance pack?
yes
Let’s hope so for the sake of the other two..
AMAZING FIESTA ST!!!!

dont thinks it going to make that much of a diffrence? te potenza's used on the yaris are quit a sporty tire.
or am i wrong?

@@nfsdanz yes youre right, but i think in another vid the yaris was on pilot sport 4 on this channel :) have you seen that one?
Ich kann mich aber an 1:44,66 vom Yaris erinnern. Im Supertest aus der April Ausgabe Nr.4 2018
Gibts den ST eigentlich auch als Automatik? 🤔
Nein
Ali Akyol man munkelt ab nächstem Jahr
Nein, braucht aber auch niemand der aktiv flott ums Eck will, hört man ja beim Polo, aufs Gas und erst einmal Drehzahl hoch und dann passiert irgendwann mal was🙈 deshalb lässt der auch Zeit liegen😉

Die Fliege weiss was gut ist.
Geil... habe mir den Ford Fiesta ST schon bestellt.. Ich freue mich schon sehr..
Comparing the Fiesta with the others is like comparing a car with ways of transportation...
Lol

Trotz des Fahrfehlers so ein Vorsprung. Chapeau! Ich würde ja sofort den Fiesta ST nehmen, aber als Alltagswagen mit Automatik......

Wow polo has its pants pulled down yet again... as for the Yaris keep the receipt you might want your money back...
Why have the Toyota in there? They’re only bringing 100 to the uk ffs
Clio rs.?
polo gti king of understeer... i think if there was no fly in the cockpit, it would have lowered a few milliseconds

Wir sind Auto Bild Sportscars und nicht Auto Bild. Das sind zwei völlig getrennt arbeitende Redaktionen.
Und der GRMN ist Kacke, Punkt
That's one fly car
Which one?
Kack überteuerter Yaris
