It may seem that way, but the Yaris gave us a huge surprise. Toyota might be playing a bit of a joke on us all with that thing because it's actually faster in the 1/4 mile than the Honda Accord we tested: ua-cam.com/video/fBy9XI44MYg/v-deo.html&ab_channel=KingdomAuto The 1.8 Honda Civic here: ua-cam.com/video/ukypHJ2HHLo/v-deo.html&ab_channel=KingdomAuto And both the Hyundai Elantra and Pontiac Vibe here: ua-cam.com/video/f6IRdpARzFM/v-deo.html&ab_channel=KingdomAuto All of those vehicles have a significant advantage when it comes to power to weight and yet somehow the Yaris is faster in the 1/4 mile. Pretty crazy
Yeah exactly, it's likely down to that transmission. The Journey actually has a better power to weight ratio when compared to the Yaris, but it got left in the dust! Just subbed to your channel by the way, you make great content :)
Race the Journey against and a 1984 Pontiac Fierro 4 cylinder 2.5L has only 92HP and around 18.1 sec quarter mile times according to google..My brother use to have one..that thing was slow as molasses!!
‘sup?~super, total awesome ,bro-🤙
Much appreciated, thank you :)
Try out a base model FWD Ford Ecosport. I’d say it would be a decent chance.
That actually might work! Thanks for the suggestion - if we can get our hands on one we’ll make it happen :)
Wow, both of those vehicles are pathetically underpowered.

Nice video again guys keep it up 👍🏻
Thanks so much :)
Simple, the Journey is heavy,, blocky and has an ancient 4 speed automatic.

@@KingdomAuto Thanks, subscribed back to yours.... may I suggest VW Beetle (the old one) vs Chevy Chevette vs Houndog?
the journey should race the new hrv… that thing is the definition of “under-torqued” lol
Oh yeah!? We have been trying to find something slow enough for the Journey 😂Maybe the HR-V is a good option :)

😂😂 good to know! If we’re ever able to find one of those, we’ll make it happen!
I think it as a Fiero, just one R
@@AndresSalazarAutos Oops yes my bad Fiero one R!
try a mitsubishi mirage!!
That might be slow enough!! 😂 funny enough we had actually tried to get one for this race but we couldn’t find one around haha
Try in journey V6 wil be faster
Yeah a V6 Journey would be great. If we can find one we will get it out to the track for sure :)
Toyota prisus might get smoked
Possibly yep
