Change your car with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Change-Your-Car-1208 It’s time for a Japanese head-to-head! We’ve got our hands on the Honda Civic Type R, and it’s going up against an imported Toyota GR Corolla! But which will come out on top? Let’s take a closer look at the stats. Starting with the Honda, it’s powered by a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo engine that produces 329hp and 420Nm. This power is sent to the front wheels only via a 6-speed manual gearbox, and the car weighs in at 1,429kg. As new, it costs from just under £52,000. Next up, we have the GR Corolla, which has been imported from Japan by Whiff Bitz. It’s powered by a 1.6-litre 3-cylinder turbo, which creates 304hp and 370Nm. This power is sent to all four wheels via a 6-speed manual, and it tips the scales at 1,475kg. It’s available to buy from Whif Bitz for £45,000. So the Type R has more power, but the GR Corolla has Four Wheel Drive! There’s only one way to find out which will win… LET’S RACE!
