The VW Golf 8 GTI experience

The Golf 8 GTI offers a perfect mix of luxury and performance, packed with sporty features. It has stainless steel pedals and high-end interior finishes with signature stitching that combines modern tech with the classic GTI look.

It’s powered by a strong 2.0 TSI engine that delivers 180 kW, going from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.4 seconds, with a top speed capped at 250 km/h. Thanks to its front differential lock, the car stays stable and in control, even on twisty roads, making it great for both everyday use and exciting drives.
