What's special?

While Volkswagen is also launching mild-hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants of the standard Golf, the GTI will continue to rely solely on internal combustion.

Performance

The revamped Volkswagen Golf GTI is predicted to see a bump in power, with the GTI Clubsport increasing output to 296hp and the all-wheel-drive Golf R boasting 326hp.

Chassis

Golf GTI will undergo chassis modifications aimed at enhancing dynamics and rolling refinement. The MQB platform incorporates a more rigid rear axle carrier that elevates cornering performance.

Engine

The hot hatch's EA888 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine currently delivers 242hp, but should undergo an upgrade during its final production years.

Availability

The manual Golf GTI should remain in production as relaxed Euro 7 emission regulations have eased concerns about the stick-shift vehicle's feasibility.
