2023 Honda Civic Type R vs Toyota GR Corolla // DRAG & ROLL RACE

The 2023 Honda Civic Type R ($50,050 in Canada, $42,895 in the US) is undoubtedly one of the hottest hatches on the market today. But how does it compare in a drag race against the special-edition newcomer, the Toyota GR Corolla Morizo Edition ($59,990 in Canada, $49,990 in the US)? The front-wheel drive Civic Type R has more power and more torque, but the weight-reducing Morizo Edition makes the GR slightly lighter despite its all-wheel drive traction advantage. What happens when these two hot hatches line up at Willow Springs for a drag and a roll race? Will the Civic’s power advantage be enough to overcome the weight and traction advantage of the Corolla? Thomas is in the Honda and James is in the Toyota - let’s see what happens. Things don’t always go as you might expect in a drag race! Thanks for watching. SUBSCRIBE! EXTRA THROTTLE HOUSE!
