As a representative of the performance of volkswagen golf, gti is not as fierce as the R series, but it also has its own unique charm.
To commemorate the 45th anniversary of the official launch of the "GTI" series, Volkswagen has created the 45th anniversary edition of the Golf GTI Clubsport based on the new car, and the new model has been unveiled.
Given that the car is an anniversary edition, the new car is naturally different from the regular GTI model in terms of styling, such as the new car has more upgrades in appearance, including a more aggressive front bumper and front diffuser, and a larger rear body spoiler.
On the side of the body, not only is the 19-inch sports wheel and the larger perforated brake discs replaced, but also has a "45" logo written on it, further highlighting the unique attributes of the new car.
In addition, the official also carried out a series of adjustments to the chassis, replaced with new springs and shock absorbers, further reducing the height of the body, and increasing the camber and readjusting the electronic limited slip differential to further enhance the performance of the vehicle.
In order to make the vehicle have a better sound, the new car is also replaced with a sporty Akrapovic exhaust pipe.
Entering the interior, you may be a little disappointed, as a special edition model, the new car uses the same sports seats as the ordinary version of the GTI.
The difference is only that the "45" logo is added to the steering wheel of the new car, and the rest has not changed much.
In terms of power, the new car is still the same 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine as the ordinary GTI, but the power has been increased from 178 kilowatts to 218 kilowatts, reducing the acceleration time of the car from 0-100 km from 6.3 seconds to 5.6 seconds.
However, the more powerful Golf R is only this engine, but everyone does not know how the strongest performance of this machine can go, and only the seven-speed DSG dual clutch is matched.
It is worth noting that although the car is a GTI series, it is priced higher than the Golf R as a limited edition model, and the power performance is not as good as the latter, so the new car competitor will be very difficult to define, after all, consumers who are willing to choose this model may be some collectors in addition to loyal iron fans.
Civic Type-R
Ford Focus RS
It is understood that Volkswagen has also launched the 25th anniversary edition of the Golf GTI before. On top of that, the car was sold for £38,300/$53,000 as a 2002 used model, which shows its staggering collection value.
For reference, the current Golf GTi starts at £34,200 (about RMB294,700), while the Clubsport 45th Anniversary Edition is priced at £40,700 (approximately RMB350,700). Unfortunately, the car is currently only available in the UK, and neither the United States nor China has introduced any models.
