3 SO FAST IT S TOUGH TO CLINK THEARLY. For generations the GTI has defied categorization and classification. So it s no wonder the seventh generation GTI has arrived, and it s faster than ever. With a 162kW power-punch and 350Nm of torque ready to be unleashed, this shot of pure adrenaline will leave your wits behind. The New GTI has the power to move its driver, not just in body, but in mind too. A true original. Often copied. Never equalled. South African interior specifications may differ from visual depicted.

With a 162kW power-punch and 350Nm of torque ready to be unleashed, this shot of pure adrenaline will leave your wits behind.

4 BETTER. FASTER. LIGHTER. Strap yourself in, take a deep breath and press down the aluminium capped accelerator pedal. From that moment the benchmark performance of the New Golf GTI will take over in all its glory, as you sprint from km/h in 6.5 seconds. And it s up to 42kgs lighter than the previous generation, resulting in the best ever power to weight ratio. With a top speed of 246 km/h for the 2.0 TSI Manual and 244 km/h for the 2.0 TSI DSG, it s no wonder the New Golf GTI is defining a whole new era for high performance cars. FUTURE-PROOF INNOVATION. Rebels. Pioneers. Mavericks. They are the ones who shape the world. That s why the New Golf GTI defines a new era of innovation. With optional innovative features such as the KESSY Keyless entry, Adaptive Chassis Control, Park Assist, Rearview camera and High Beam control Light Assist you can make the impossible possible. A 5.8 affinity touchscreen senses your finger movements and reacts even before you touch it. You can take pleasure in listening to the Composition Media Radio/CD system with MP3/WMA compatibility, 8 speakers, Bluetooth, SD Card & USB port. The future has arrived in the New GTI. INTERIOR EYE CANDY. With all the power that the New Golf GTI unleashes, it is just as essential that the interior is built for premium luxury and driving comfort. The leather interior with red stitching and chrome trims bolster you perfectly as you tear up the road. The high quality interior cabin has a premium and sophisticated layout and feel. Wrap yourself in superior comfort and luxury. The New GTI s interior is much more cockpit, much less cabin. CONTROL THAT DEFIES PHYSICS. Harness the competitive spirit of the New Golf GTI with ease as you feel the impeccable best-in-class handling and driveability at work. The GTI sports suspension asserts its dominance with its front axle McPherson struts and independent suspension, as well as a Multilink rear axle with a modular lightweight suspension. The all new standard progressive steering and Transverse Electronic Differential Lock (XDS) provides an intuitive and instinctive response as you manoeuvre hairpin bends with pin-point precision. BEAUTY & THE BEAST. The exterior design is all unmistakably GTI with the red pinstriped front honeycomb grille, dual chrome tailpipes, red brake callipers and 18 Austin Alloy wheels. Its independent spirit can be sensed in its aggressive stance, and the standard LED front fog lights as well as the optional Bi-Xenon headlight package only adds to the pedigree of the New Golf GTI. The perfect combination of beauty and beast. SMALL CHANGES CAN MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. Great power demands great responsibility. That s why this is the most environmentally conscious GTI yet. The New Golf GTI is up to 42kgs lighter and more fuel efficient than ever before. You can confidently conquer the road without the fear of heavy fuel consumption, with the 2.0 TSI Manual utilising only 6.0 l/100km and 6.4 l/100km for the 2.0 TSI DSG. With no compromise on the love of the drive, the New Golf GTI is kinder to the planet and easier on your pocket. SAFETY FIRST. LAST. EVERYTHING. All leaders have vision and foresight. That is why the New Golf GTI has a host of intuitive driver assist systems to keep you safe. The Rest Assist Fatigue Detection System monitors your driving behaviour and lets you know when you need to take a break, while the Multi Collision Braking System complements its ability to accelerate with phenomenal stopping power in the event of an accident. The new generation Antilock Braking System (ABS), Anti-Spin Regulator (ASR), Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) with Brake Assist and Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) will make sure you stay firmly on the road. Because at Volkswagen we put people first. Always.

And it s up to 42kgs lighter than the previous generation, resulting in the best ever power to weight ratio. With a top speed of 246 km/h for the 2.0 TSI Manual and 244 km/h for the 2.

The measuring standards are stipulated by law. They do not apply to a specific vehicle and are provided to enable comparison between different vehicle models tested using the same uniform measuring standard. The values are accordingly not necessarily representative of real-life driving conditions. Factors such as driving style, vehicle load, road conditions, tyre size, traffic and ambient conditions may result in different fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emission levels to those achieved under the test parameters referred to above.
