The rebel is back on the road and creating a sensation – and with even more driving pleasure and goosebumps for its drivers. For generations, the Golf GTI has been the epitome of power and performance. The eighth generation of this icon is no different – intuitively delivering even more power, perfectly complemented by precision German engineering and intelligent features that make this the most digitally advanced GTI ever.

Outside: Fast-paced. Inside: Styled luxury.
All of the components inside the GTI are carefully tailored to one another to give the vehicle its distinctively sporty look. This starts with the stainless steel pedals and extends to the decorative trims and hallmark stitching all the way to the black headliner. The LED background lighting adds accents of light in all the right places. And you’ll also notice straight away that the digital future has arrived in the cockpit. These features are dominated by high-resolution displays and the majority of functions, like the radio, air conditioning system and lighting, can be operated using touch-sensitive surfaces and sliders.
GTI genes meets cutting-edge design.
When there is a red line stretching across the front and the radiator grille features a honeycomb design and black air intakes, then there can just be three letters on the badge: GTI. Slim LED headlights, a strikingly dynamic bumper and extended side skirts add even more expression to the sportiness of this legendary vehicle. At the back, the roof spoiler and chrome-plated tail pipes are essential features, while the LED tail light clusters round off the unique appearance.
Powerful. Sporty. Well trained.
With its 2.0 TSI engine, the performance hatch delivers an impressive 180 kW that hurtles you from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.4 seconds – and enables you to reach a top speed of 250 km/h (regulated). This amount of power is not just fun on straight roads, but on windy roads, too. Here, you’ll also receive a helping hand from the front differential lock, which stabilises your Golf GTI if it slips and helps you to keep control in the process. Wherever you are heading, you can make the most of this powerful engine.
Everything adapts to you.
With the Innovision Cockpit 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.
Tech meets torque.
Even before you get in, the keyless entry system makes it clear that the GTI is power and intelligence fused into one. Once you’re on the road, you’ll benefit from IQ.DRIVE to make your drive safer and more intuitive. Features like Travel Assist use Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Assist for a more relaxed journey. The Rear View camera and Park Assist features make pulling into a tight spot easier than ever. The GTI also offers additional intuitive technology such as Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Traffic Alert and Lane Assist.
