New Golf GTI 2009


New Golf GTI 2009
Volkswagen unveiled U.S.-spec variants of its sixth-generation Golf and its pavement-eating cousin, the GTI, earlier today at the New York International Auto Show
Following in the tradition of past GTI models, the performance version of the sixth-generation car will not look radically different from the standard car. That being said, larger wheels and tires, a lowered suspension and a few GTI-specific parts are part of the equation. A red grille surround returns, albeit in revised form.
The new GTI will be powered by a 210-horsepower, 258lb-ft of torque, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. VW’s six-speed DSG transmission will be available on the GTI, as will a six-speed manual.
The new GTI will hit 62 mph in 7.2 seconds, and will also boast a top speed of nearly 150 mph. However, the GTI will return more than 30 mpg on the European cycle.
In order to ensure the GTI is an all-around performer, expected the hot hatch to come equipped DCC adaptive damping and an XDS electronic differential.
The GTI will show up in dealerships later this summer in both two- and four-door versions.
