This motor is tuned to generate approximately 260bhp and 370Nm torque, sending power to the front wheels. In this state of tune, the Golf GTI can sprint from zero to 100kmph in only 5.9 seconds, attaining a top speed of 250kmph.
Design-wise, the hot hatch gets aggressive styling cues with pod-like LED Headlamps, connected LED DRLs, star-shaped LED fog lamps, wide lower grille, and a GTI badge finished in red, located on the grille. Further adding to the sportiness of the hatchback are the 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, along with twin exhaust pipes.
