Golf GTI won Best Performance Car under $60K
The powerful looks of the Golf GTI are matched effortlessly by what lies beneath the V shaped bonnet – a new 2.0-litre TSI direct injection turbocharged engine that pounds out 155kW of power and 280Nm of torque. Sharper and more agile, the Golf GTI can reach 100km/h in 6.9 seconds. And with equally impressive consumption figures of 7.7L/100km*, or 7.6L/100km* with the optional DSG transmission, the Golf GTI is powerfully efficient, utilising the latest emission-reducing technology.

Stunning looks
The Golf GTI is an exceptional evolution in design and style. Smooth muscular contours, lowered front spoiler and black honeycomb grille, with classically inspired red trim, give the Golf GTI a distinct profile – a profile that turns heads just in time to see chrome-plated tail pipes and darkened rear tail light clusters.

Stylish detail
Inside, fine red stitching to the steering wheel, gearshift and handbrake shows the level of care that’s gone into the Golf GTI. And with a red-lit, 6-disc, CD changer touch screen and white instrument display, it’s fair to say the Golf GTI looks just as good inside as it does out.

Accredited safety
Awarded the maximum 5 Star ANCAP rating, superior safety comes standard with the Golf GTI. An Anti-locking Braking System (ABS) and Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR) system are integrated into an Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP), which continually monitors wheel traction and applies braking pressure on individual wheels, and reduces engine torque to maintain driver control in emergency situations. And with 7 airbags, including a driver’s knee airbag, it’s safe to say that you can enjoy the Golf GTI with extra peace of mind.

Individual touches
Equip the Golf GTI with an extensive choice of options including a Rear View Camera (RVC)#, electric glass sunroof and RNS510 satellite navigation system to get you from A to B or Z. Also available is the Dynaudio Excite 300W with an 8 speaker audio system, that sounds even better when you hear it, and the innovative Park Assist feature with Optical Parking System (OPS)** that actively helps drivers parallel park like professionals. With a list of options that goes on, the Golf GTI is truly spoilt for choice.
