MkVII Golf GTI Concept Revealed
Volkswagen has taken the sheets off of the new Golf GTI Concept at the Paris Motor Show, and we need to get one thing off the table. This is a concept in name only. Based off of the recently revealed Golf MkVII, the GTI is more of the same as far as the line is concerned, with a more aggressive body kit, red grille accent, and those amazing Interlagos Plaid seats. We especially like the new wheel design which seem to be a modified take on the classic “Denver” wheels from the MkVI GTI.
The new GTI will be powered by the familiar 2.0-liter turbo, but VW says power has been raised by a modest 17 horsepower bringing the total number up to 217. The big news for the drivetrain is VW’s claim of an 18-percent fuel economy boost, which should bring the hot hatch up to a rather impressive 36 mpg highway.
Take a minute to browse through our gallery and get a look at the new car. We will make sure to deliver all the details on the new hatch when they become available.
