Volkswagen Golf GTI 2012

The current Volkswagen Golf GTI enjoys a 2.0 liter turbo engine that develops a maximum output of 210 hp, while the special “Edition 35″ reaches to an amount of 235 hp. Who wants a stronger Golf, if the Golf R version is available with an output of 265 hp obtained from the same 2.0 liter turbo, but with all-wheel drive car? But for the moment, the journalists from Auto Express come with an information, that the new Golf GTI will be as powerful as the current Golf R. So, the 2.0 liter turbo engine will give the new VW Golf GTI 7 a maximum output power of 260 hp, which along with the 100 kg weight savings, will lead to a start from 0 to 100 km / h in just 6 seconds, while top speed is expected to reach at 250 km / h – beside the current Golf 6 GTi, this means a best start in nearly a second and a maximum speed exceeding with 10 km / h. The new VW Golf GTI will benefit from suspension made of aluminum material that will also be used for the roof, so that machine mass will not exceed 1.3 tons. The new Golf GTI will benefit from the experience with SGA group, with the Scirocco GT24 race model (the same who ran at the Nurburgring 24h), which will translate into special sets of steering, brakes and suspension. Also, we will notice two new features for the new Golf GTI: the progressive, which will turn the wheels as little as the steering angle is greater and a new central differential lock VAQ and electronically controlled transmission that provides torque to the wheel that has more grip.
