In 2015, Volkswagen introduced the Mk 7 GTI. Unlike the Mk6, this was a proper redesign. The 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder now makes 210 hp and 258 lb-ft. With the optional Performance Package, power jumps to 220 hp. And if you need Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, the Mk7 is the one to get.
Four-door versions of the GTI S also receive power-reclining front seats. Available on all GTIs, the optional Performance package includes an electronically controlled mechanical limited-slip front differential, larger front and rear brakes and an additional 10 horsepower.
That means, this special edition Golf GTI is the fastest model in the Golf line-up, with a top speed of 166mph. Like the Golf GTI Clubsport, the Clubsport 45 is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine, which produces 296bhp and 400Nm of torque.
In fact, technically speaking, the GTI is called the Golf GTI since it's more or less a trim of the Golf. Like its name may imply however, the GTI is a performance-oriented trim, and it turns the Golf from being a boring but useful small car into a fast and furious little beast.
The VW Golf Lineup & All-Wheel Drive AvailabilityThe Volkswagen Golf Alltrack, Golf R, and Golf SportWagen are available with all-wheel drive, giving drivers an extra boost of confidence when driving in less-than-ideal conditions. That said, the Golf, Golf GTI, and e-Golf do NOT offer AWD.
New VW Golf R: The fastest and most powerful Golf ever made
- New VW Golf R is the most powerful Golf ever made, trumping the outgoing model for pace and acceleration.
- 320 PS engine sends the R from 0-62mph in 4.7 seconds.
Ford Focus STUnlike the VW and Skoda, the Ford boasts a larger 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine. Like the others, it's an inline-four turbocharged unit. It produces 280 horsepower (206 kW) and 310 pound-feet (420 Nm). On paper, the Focus ST boasts a better 0 to 62 mph time – 5.7 seconds versus the GTI's 6.0 seconds.
The GTR is based off the GTI line up, it's just a GTI with a bigger engine and more racing features. It makes sense for it to get the new hull too. With the same 230HP engine this thing is going to be a blast. Not only that but you get all the extra's that come with a GTI like more storage and the Quick Linq system.
The GTI is a front-wheel-drive hatchback, while the WRX is an all-wheel-drive sedan. It's easier to live with the GTI day to day because of its comfortable ride and better fuel economy.
Verdict. The GTI Performance adds a little extra sparkle to the regular GTI offering a little more power for those who want it. High equipment levels mean that the Performance does feel like a complete package, while solid build quality justifies the price tag.
TSI: This abbreviation stands for Turbocharged Stratified Injection. All U.S. models now have a turbocharged engine, and stratified injection simply means the fuel is injected into the cylinders before ignition.
You can expect 15-30+ horsepower gains depending on the turbo and tune setup.
