- It’s time for an almighty Germany vs. China electric car showdown!
We’ve got our hands on the Human Horizons HiPhi Z & HiPhi X, and they’re going up against the Porsche Taycan GTS and BMW iX M60! The question is, which is the quickest? Well, let’s take a look at the stats.
Starting with the HiPhi Z, it comes equipped with two electric motors that can put down 672hp and 820Nm. All that power means it’s pretty heavy, mind, coming in at 2,539kg, and it costs around £90,000.
Alongside it we have the Porsche Taycan GTS. It also comes with two electric motors, but it’s down on power compared to the HiPhi, able to produce 598hp and 850Nm of torque. It’s the lightest car here, at 2,310kg, but it’s also more expensive than the HiPhi Z, coming in at around £111,000.
Then we get to the SUVs. Starting with the HiPhi X, it comes with two electric motors that can produce 598hp and 820Nm. It tips the scales at 2,580kg, and it has a price tag of around £93,000.
Then finally we come to the BMW iX M60. It’s the heaviest car here (just!) at 2,584kg, but it also has a boatload of power, with its two electric motors producing 619hp and 1,100Nm! But not only is it the heaviest, it’s also the most expensive, costing around £123,000!
So will China come out on top? Or will it be a clean sweep for the Germans? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!

I’m not sure if everyone noticed but carwow has been slowly transitioning to having cameras in every car and I appreciate that. Not too long ago we only had cameras only for special guests like Yianni, whereas Nick, Sam, Rory and others, could only be heard on the radio.
MORE YIANNI! I love his enthusiasm while having virtually no idea what car he is in!!!! Love the channel guys. MORE YIANNI!
@@courtney5796 The bromance between Yianni and Mat, is just the best on YT..
@@KRAEMERP2010and officially gassed Jamie
@@courtney5796 nope LESS Yianni. The guy is a complete cretin
And that something wow?!
The BMW has the same aerodynamics as a cow i’m shocked it’s that quick
Because electric motors are CONSIDERABLY more efficient than an engine. Efficiency for an ICE is around 20%-25%. Efficiency for a battery motors is around 80%. Now let’s look at how long the ICE has been around for and the fact that those efficiency figures are still terrible, even after 100 odd years of development, and then how long EV’s have been around for. Won’t be long before EV’s are at 90%, trust me!
I'm a cow and I find this offensive.
You're a aerodynamics expert, right?

0:31 it looks like an i8 and GTR had a mutant baby that grew to be taller than both parents
Sam is right, if you guys weren't there, this race would be like watching a water boiling race between 4 brands of electric kettle.
*Technology Connections* and *Project Farm* are racing to be the first to upload this kettle competition.
True, no emotional investment in the cars at all
That’s because most people can’t see past some noise. For the rest of us, we appreciate the engineering that goes into these cars. The ICE is dead 👍
@@peedeegtI can appreciate the tech, doesn’t mean I find it exciting. You can’t say that this is better than listening to a screaming v10 or something.
@@peedeegt What amazing technology? the inverters used has been around main stream since the 90s. the 3 phase motor since the 1800. the rest is just stacking upp a crazy amout off battery cells to make high voltage. slap a cheap 10inch touch screen and your done. What bothers me most is the stupid high weights of todays car. We are at over 1000kg more than 15 years ago for the norm car. It's going backwards
The iX keeping up with the Taycan is seriously impressive.
it wasnt the fastest version of the taycan
It’s like the 3rd fastest Taycan if he would’ve used a Turbo or Turbo S the Porsche would’ve been a lot quicker
Now do this with a Turbo s
Why electric cars are all similar underneath
not really.
Well just let you know that there is a new car called Zeeker 001 FR. 0-60 number is 2.07s... just released. Hope you guys can take a video of that car one day.
Love the editing in these races
10:03 it's lovely to hear Matt talk about his mother. Just goes to show how much she means to him in these drag races 🥰
😂😂😂
@@manrs6037Olivier Panis wanna joined this drag race.
😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂 I knew what you were upto
The iX keeping up with the Porsche is just insane
wow that was really an exciting episode and what happened in the second part of the video was even more exciting....
These days Carwow upload videos faster than my WiFi👀
Was just gonna comment, carwows never upoaded more videoes, its more than daily sometimes !
@@matthew_robineau7609 yeah... Back in days they used to upload a video once a week...but now😐
They probably shoot 3-5 drag races on a daily 😂
I like it ,it keeps me entertained,@car wow keep it going
Yes man i like it tho!!
Due to me living in China and working in the trading business and some customers bought Chinese cars i had to test drive a lot of them and to be completely honest i was shocked they have very good and very reliable cars and they are relatively cheaper than other competitors
A lot of them burn to the ground too !!
Given their disastrous construction industry with 1000s of children dying in concrete tofu schools, I dunno if I trust them to build cars any better…
Those cars are 20 grand cheaper in China as well and there are plenty of other with similar performance they could have chosen that are another 20 grand cheaper.
@@arkhsm 🫠 I'm not sure if you serious or joking but if you are serious you have been brainwashed by the stereotype that chinese products are bad that's the importers problem because they want something cheap the products here in China are better than the majority or the well known brands and regarding the cars they are so reliable I bought my car in 2017 and never had any issues with it
@@manapause well that's all happens when the western brands open factories in China because nobody wants to do the factory job + almost all the information you are getting is fake i was thinking the same until I moved to china and i saw that all the media are just lying and the majority of the information they are spreading is incorrect
8:16 the moment he felt he was going to win but starts cursing the Hi-Phi Z limiter is so 😂😂😂😂
Chinese cars won my respect respect already. They improve so fast in just a few years.

@@kidchenqi4203 China's technological progress is very fast
Respection? Is that a new word?
@@remymartin1326 thank you for your correction!
You should have given Sam another run at the Drag Race after his Discovery
He should have discovered it earlier because everyone had figured their settings but he failed to do it.
The fault is the car brand that have a obligation to make a car performance setting simple like steering wheel button or something like that. If they complicate they deserve be seen bad in the clip, old cars don't have this complicated shit
@@tinashetfyep. Even Coco Hayashi ever tested those cars on road courses also.
@@migueldias3157agree. Their steering rack are basically quite zig zagged.
He would have come a little less last
I'm with Sam on this one, the lack of engine noise removes some drama from the art
Not true when you are in the car yourself.
Removes some?.. removes everyting. I want to hear engines. 4, 5, 6, 8, or even 10 12 cylinders.
@@15620vbut a gas turbine on reheat is better than all of them so why not put one in a car ;)

I have been part of the Carwow family for a while? And I absolutely just love MATT!! A very very entertaining host! And sometimes extremely relatable… there are plenty of drag race CZcams channels but I think Carwow hits HOME❤ for me. Thanks Matt lots of love for you and the Rest of the Carwow Gang ✨🤙
That was much closer than I thought it would be, especially the rolling starts.
Carwow is killing it with these uploads ❤
😍
What is going on 7-8 drag races in two weeks 😂😂😂🫡🫡🫡🫡🫡
@@mahalagiulyep. At this rate, Carwow may possibly gonna upload 25 drag races in 1 week.
@@purwantiallan5089 i mean it won’t bother me 😂😂😂
Speed limiters is probably the rolling race killer😂
Yep. 😂
It‘s not actually a speed limiter. The electric motors just reached their max rpm. The chinese carswould need a longer gear ratio to go faster. But then they won‘t accelerate so quickly any more.
The chinese cars just have a shorter gear ratio. Good for pulling, not for speed.
@@Patrick_Schaefer given the traffic condition and highway speed cameras in china, for most cars it's virtually meaningless going above 144km (120kmh speed limit + 20% buffer), that's why cars are built and tuned that way to have stronger accelerations but weaker at the top end. The same principle applies to European/American/Japanese cars being sold in China as well.
Next time try to test Chinese newly released ev car, the ZEEKER 001 FR with quad motors and 1260 hp. Hope to see that in your vid. But the price should be closer to Taycan GTS.
This was a fun race to watch!
Carwow is very busy putting up impressive and unexpected races. Well done 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿
Yep. Tons of heavy hitter drag races.
I am amazed at how many videos Carwow is putting out lately. Amazing job guys. 👏
This amazes you?
@@reviewsmore2946 must be one of those poeple who still watch ads on youtube in 2023... 🤣😂🙃
@@Zebpro lol.
They produce suuuper quality vids on a crazy consistent basis and it always cheers my night up.
They film multiple on the same day. Like say when they finished this race they would do the M2 races
I think that this was one of the most interesting Drag Race of all.
This is a very nice episode . Car Wow is growing up . Awesomeness 😎.
Matt got me dying with him losing 😂😂
Yep. LOL.
Thank you Matt, I am glad I get to watch videos everyday 😅keep it up
And always epic.
The 2 Chinese cars were 15%-20% cheaper than the 2 German ones, I think the Chinese ones actually won overall, if price should be taken into consideration. Also the first few tests the 3rd car wasn't even in the best speed option chosen till later...
The HIFI also more focused on luxury in the cabin which makes the vehicle much heavier.
I think they just chose the wrong car! Very few people in China are actually buying this Hiphi. Popular Sedans are Xpeng P7i, Nio ET5 Touring. And SUVs are Xpeng G9, G6. Nio Es6,7 and EC6 etc
@@liujeffrey1603 hiphi is actually new and just recently entered production as for popular brands you've mention are established and would not dare to use it to compare with western producer
@@liujeffrey1603as a Chinese I never heard of these 2 Chinese car brand at all lol.
@@Ilovecruise事实是小鹏和蔚来比hiphi要出名多了
Carwow needs a TV show! Mat's reviews are in depth and brilliant, the drag races are epic, the guest drivers are brilliant! This is TV worthy!
"TV" - What is that? And who needs this "TV"?
Huh? TV has been dead for over a decade already.
Nah - more viewers online
Mat, another awesome drag race. Please include these chaps (Sam, Rory, Nick and Yani) more on these drag races, they are hilarious. 🤣🤣
A drag race a day keeps the doctor away 🙌🏼🙌🏼 loving the content loving the races and loving the cars 👌🏼
Amin.
Can't wait to see the MG cyberstar comparison, and also Lotus Electre ?
Love these videos.
I really don’t car about electric cars, but those races were sooo close and along with Matt and the others it’s just so entertaining!😂 One of my favorite videos yet!!
MAT has a lot to do, hope he dont get the stress, carwow is nothing without him
Mat spotted 😂
Big fact.
@2:42 kindly mention the engine type of cars you compare , such gasoline , diesel and hydro or electric
HiPhi Z and X are very much a Technological Wonder. Sound System Technology, etc. Driving this EV will turn Heads every where. BMW and Taycan design are controversial as "Hate it or Love it " design.
I love it whenever Mat says "1 in the front 2 in the rear" 😉😉
😳
You cheeky
Coco Hayashi also says "1 in the front, and 2 in the rear".
The daily commitment is insane 🤯.
very fair comparision, good to see u list their price.
Making cars even bigger and heavier will help the environment so much ❤
Carwow has been working extra wow lately. Keep up the great content!
Yep. Not even SavageGeese and The Straight Pipes can match it.
Nobody cares
@@andreiionescu205 who hurt you?
Always looking forward to seeing such drag race. Nice
No doubt. What if there is a drag between Porsche Taycan vs Lancia Rally 037 vs Lancia Fulvia?
Matt swearing when he hit the speed limiter almost killed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hiphi is speed-limited in the factory settings. I don’t know. Are Porsche and BMW also speed-limited?
yes but at a higher speed
Carwow has been absolute fire with these videos every day ❤
Yes.
So the MG4 Xpower that you raced the other day and cost 36k would have come second equal with the 120k beamer in the 1/4 mile drag.
This is the most quiet drag I've ever seen xD (no more DB restrictions for those)
That IX is quick, I collected a Taycan gts the other day and it’s seriously quick! You don’t really need anything quicker on the roads!
I would definitely want a Hiphi Z if it's comes in purple with bright green accents and have EVA01 written on it.
if only they find a way to unlock the speed limiter on those two EVs
oh man, have not seen your channel for a few years. you age quickly
I'm pretty impressed with the Chinese cars, they are +- the same as German cars, but probably with more "nice-to-have"s for less money
Hiphi is not even a wellknown car brand. Only these cars, regarding mobility: Germany 100, then china maybe 80. Regarding connectivity, multimedia and assistant system, Chinese cars are way better.
Ccp propagandist
是的，在中国销售的很多 EV 车价格在 1 万美元到 3 万美元之间，也有很多家庭主妇开的 3000 美元的车，贵一些的 30 万美元基本上30万美元。也就是说你从 3000 美元到 30 万美元的车都能买得到，主流的还是 1 到 3 万美元的为主
@@user-xm2nc6gm2v tf u yapping mate
more drag races 😍 greetings from Lebanon to you matt .
The most quiet race on this channel sooooo far 😂
Oddly enough it really did get more eventful near the end😅🤣👏🏾
You should try Aion Hyper SSR next time.
It's a 1.9s 0-100kph car, with 1225 horse powers!
The future of takeaway delivery’s are going to be quick 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
You'd think so, but from experience tailing these vehicles through the city their drivers tend to do a lot more braking than accelerating...
@@blicknessraven trust me that will change when the Chinese/Indian and pizza delivery guys can afford these. The food will be like it’s just been cooked 🤣⚡️⚡️🔥🔥🔥
4:33 race 1
6:11 race 2
7:53 rolling 1
9:21 rolling 2
10:25 braking test
8:18 best moment
They all passed the finish line within a second. That's close to equally fast to me.
Can you imagine just a few years back there being drag races of consumer vehicles all in the 600bhp area?
We need a running race
The most unexpected lineup
You know that Chinese car could be only £30grands in China.

The HiFi were really strong on the roll race up to their speed limit !
he use China low horsepower 3rd tier brands to compare with german top tier brands? he definitely know NIO EP9、 ET7 , BYD U9、 HAN, HONGQI S9，ZEEKER，IM, AVATR These top brands ， But he didn't choose to use it from it, all insiders understand he despicable intentions, And even with the HIFi brand, he only uses the lowest level car HiPhi x, Top model HiPhi Z he didn use
@@user-yi9ls5uf3v MG4 Xpower is faster than this HiPhi and it cost like 1/3 the price.
Is HiPhi the Volkswagen of the Chinese brands?
@@goowatchi no... BYD is the Toyota/VW of China - HiPhi is more like the Alfa Romeo of China... more expensive but not the most performant.
@@user-yi9ls5uf3v what do you mean by "Top model HiPhi Z he didn use". Apparently, they included a HiPhi Z in the race. Did you not watch the video? And according to HiPhi (global) that's the top spec one available.
The BMW though. It's surprising how quickly it is especially against the Taycan
Yep. Their acceleration rate is on par with even Celica GT4 WRC ST205.
Torque!
I mean if I'm paying 130k poundsbfor that it better do me that speed otherwise, hell to the fuck no
It's only been the Taycan GTS version. Otherwise the race would be very one-sided.
It seems Chinese EV cars are all limited to a top speed of 180kph, probably due to their regulations.
Would love to do drag race taycan with Aion Hyper SSR
Would've been one of the most boring drag races without you guys balancing it out with your entertainment. Great video yet again!
Carwow is like dropping a video everyday that is mind blowing 🤯
Yep. 8 drag races in a single week alone.
Hard working lad
@@purwantiallan5089 they are killing lately lol
Hiphi is not famous for its performance, should've try the Zeeker001 FR
😂
comparing between luxury 3second to luxury 3s is actually more fair then a luxury 3s to sub 2s track electric
While at it could you please also make a comparison which catches on firme quicker ?
I think that when you show the stats of those electric dysons the main info we need to see is the battery capacity. I mean it is easy to have the lighter car if you put the smaller battery (or the other way around).
That HiPhi is definitely the most eye catching of all.
But not in a good way 😂🤢
I guess that's cool if ur 12 😂
Wow dear Brit, you look like American stunt film actor. Great!🎉🎉🎉
Super fast , the 4 were so close to one another!
You need to do multiple brake tests in the future Matt!
Having the full carwow staff race on a Sunday feels so wholesome 👍👍👍
Yep. Especially during F1 Race Week.
5:40 😂😂 lol the come back from Mats.
He sure doesn't know how it works.
The editor is a comrade i like it 😂😅
Not gonna lie, the UV purple seatbelt is low-key dope.
5:13 the German impersonations of Matt are hilarious LOL
Bro the end tho was amazing. Matt Watson didn’t disappoint when telling us to wait to watch the cool stuff at the end. Worth it
humor of this video was the next level the sad sam n the edit was lit lmao
Sam giving away trade secrets 😂😂, but honestly the slowest car was 12.7secs ,which is still proper rapid
I know, right? That's as fast as my 1979 Suzuki 750 bike, in a ****** SUV. And that was the "loser"!
Every day drag Race ❤ Amazing !!!!
Yep. Every single day.
really nice race !!!
Matt with the immaturity im here for-
"I start off gentle but then I build it up to go stronger...just the way he likes it..."
"Sam you were just taking it up the rear."
😂😂😂
It's very impressive how a heavy ix can keep up with a taycan
1,100 NM
This seemingly boring race turned out to be a lot of fun! Laughed a lot with Sam complaints... 🤣
If you make cool graphics like Hagerty media youtube channel, it will be amazing❤️ especially the drag race part where the frame freezes and he walks by to present the facts is pretty amazing🔥
This like watching Grass Grow Silence
I love it when Mat loses😂😂
Coco Hayashi also loves to see whenever Matt loses a drag race.
Sam speaking straight facts - he is an absolute legend 🙏🏼💪🏼
Out of curiosity, do electric cars have drive Shaft from the motor to the wheels ? Just wondering and if so are they made out of adamantium 😅
Glad to see Carwow bring some Chinese electric cars ! Even though I’m a Chinese, I couldn’t recognize all the Chinese electric brands 😅
I’m looking forward to see Chinese electric cars importing to foreign countries as well ❤
