The Golf GTI
Available from stock only

Nothing shapes the side view of a vehicle than the wheels. The dynamic alloy wheels that are available as standard or an option impressively enhance the Golf GTI’s sporty nature. 

The Golf GTI is fitted with IQ.LIGHTs as standard including powerful LED matrix headlights fitted with “Dynamic Light Assist” main-beam control light up the road and that stretch all the way round to the side wings, while sleek LED tail light clusters dominate at the rear.  The package also includes innovative dynamic turn signals that use an animated strip of lights to show which way you are turning.

Fog, heavy snowfall or rain? Not a problem with the  LED front fog lights that come in the new 5-honeycomb design and are built into the bumper. Turn them on quickly and the world will look pretty different. And your Golf GTI will look even more striking.

When fitted with exterior background lighting, your new Golf GTI will welcome you before you’ve even climbed aboard: Operate your remote control key or start to approach the vehicle and the headlights and tail lights will light up. The door handle recesses and red strip in the radiator grille will also light up and your new Golf GTI will welcome you with light projected out of the exterior mirrors onto the floor.

When combined with the optional “Discover Pro” radio navigation system, the Digital Cockpit Pro can be upgraded to the Innovision Cockpit. This means that both displays, measuring 10 inches (25.4 cm) and 10.25 inches (26.04 cm), are available. The resulting display landscape not only contains classic content like the rev counter, speedometer and mileage counter, but also other useful data in an even clearer and more detailed display. You can even set up favourite functions on the home screen, just like the way you would configure your smartphone.

The Golf GTI has a digital cockpit pro as standard.

The Golf GTI is equipped with high-quality premium sport seats as standard. With their sophisticated design, the seats are a real treat for the eyes, and for your back. Their height and lumbar support can be adjusted. They provide good support and a pleasing level of comfort. And of course, they also come with an optional heating function.

The classic function knobs in the cockpit have largely made way for touch-sensitive surfaces in the Golf GTI. This allows you to control the Climatronic, for example, simply and intuitively using buttons and sliders. Even the leather trim touch multifunction steering wheel can be operated with a simple tap of the finger. In combination with the intelligent menu navigation you have access to lots of functions. Haptic feedback through gentle vibration confirms every entry.

Being able to check all the most important information while also keeping an eye on the road: this is the main advantage of the optional head-up display in your Golf. Part of the windscreen becomes a projection area that can display your speed, messages from your driver assist systems or navigation instructions. The projection itself is still clearly legible, even when light is shining directly onto the windscreen. And you can switch off the display at any time if you no longer need it.

Climb in and hit the gas: the DSG dual clutch gearbox with its brand new smaller selector lever guarantees fun behind the wheel without any interruptions. That’s because you can change seamlessly between the gears and even reduce your fuel consumption. Pressing on the selector lever enables you to easily select your chosen driving mode, which is then activated via the electrically connected shift-by-wire gearbox. Particularly handy in a traffic jam: When combined with the  Travel Assist feature, the system can help you to pull away and brake.

“Still perhaps the most iconic version of Volkswagen’s most iconic modern model.”

“A hot hatch package that’s pliant enough for long-distance motorway drives, and pacey enough to entertain on a B-road.”
