The Golf GTI upgrades to a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine producing 180kW and 370Nm, mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. It’s also front-wheel drive but includes a locking front differential. Volkswagen claims the Golf GTI can do the 0-100km/h sprint in 6.4 seconds.
But, there are three GTI trims to choose from, starting with S at $31,625, SE at $36,425, and $40,165 for the top Autobahn. Much like the original did for us all those years ago, the 2023 Volkswagen Golf GTI demonstrates just how fun and practical a front-wheel drive hatchback can be. What is the top speed of a 2021 Volkswagen Golf 8 2.0 TSI GTI? The 2021 Volkswagen Golf 8 2.0 TSI GTI top speed is 250 Km/h / 155 mph.Like its predecessor you get a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine making 242bhp and 273lb ft – we expect 0-62mph in the low sixes, and a top speed north of 150mph.UJrmTq.
