Volkswagen's "R series", as the high-performance department of the Volkswagen brand, has always been loved by car players, but unfortunately, the golf R introduced in China has not been introduced since the 2017 model.
Until recently, there are suspected new eighth-generation Golf R real cars debuted in China, does it mean that the new car is expected to return to the domestic market?
However, it was learned from TV Jun that the eighth generation of Golf R exposed this time may be an unofficial channel model, mainly because the car is suspected of being a US model, and the wheel brow of the vehicle has a yellow reflective strip in addition to it, which means that the model has no GPF (gasoline engine particle trap) and will not be able to pass the domestic emission requirements, including the black Golf R that came with this blue Golf R.
As a result, how the two eight-generation golf R arrived, there are also many opinions on the Internet, and even some netizens speculated that this was directly consigned by "local tycoons", guessing from the "Chongqing Ground Service (Chongqing Airport Ground Handling Service Company)" on the board.
Of course, such a consignment method also means that the new car cannot be licensed, and it is not excluded that there are "local tycoons" who use the car to run the track, after all, there is precedent before. However, some netizens said that domestic roads can be achieved through the two places of Hong Kong and Macao, but this will be a higher cost situation.
It is worth mentioning that because of the circulation of this set of pictures on the Internet, there is news that the eighth generation of golf R has arrived in Hong Kong, and even the parallel import price will reach 615,000 yuan, compared with the previous generation of 2017 golf R domestic guidance price of 372,800 yuan, which means that the new car will be more than 200,000 yuan more expensive.
However, some analysts revealed that the current eighth-generation golf R of formal parallel imports has only passed the domestic durability test and has not passed the domestic emission test, which means that parallel imports cannot be realized for the time being.
In any case, the car news can be circulated wildly on the Internet, but also because this generation of Golf R is known as the "strongest generation of Golf R", equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the maximum power is 320 horses, the maximum torque can reach 400 Nm, and the zero hundred acceleration is 4.9 seconds.
In addition, the American Golf R still uses a 6MT manual transmission and adds a new electronic system, which allows the model to achieve a drifting attitude close to the rear-drive car, which undoubtedly makes the new car attract much attention.
At present, the chances of Golf R being able to achieve domestic introduction are very slim, but from the perspective of its competitors, there is still a chance for these models to be introduced, after all, some models currently have domestic plans.
Honda Civic Type-R
Modern Elantra N
Toyota Corolla GR
Ford Focus RS
Although the Volkswagen Golf R still has no plans to introduce, many fans regret it, but it is an extremely niche model after all, at least from the current performance of Volkswagen's introduction of the Golf GTI, it has not made Volkswagen worthy of introduction.
Besides, the new car really needs a price of more than 600,000 yuan, will everyone really consider it?
Netizen 1: I really envy the North American market, the paradise of performance cars!
Netizen 2: Absolutely true love! After all, more than 600,000 is too much to choose from at this price point...
Netizen 3: Money only buys what you like, poverty limits our imagination!
Netizen 4: 600,000 into China's only car, it is also quite cost-effective!
Netizen 5: It is indeed too emotional, no matter how fierce, can it be compared to the tram?
