Volkswagen India revealed that the first batch of the Golf GTi—containing 150 units—got all booked even before the official launch.
Following the overwhelming success of the Golf GTI in India, Volkswagen has already confirmed a second batch—containing 100 units of the hot hatchback.
Volkswagen India has officially confirmed the launch date of the Golf GTI, which is said to be May 26.
The Golf GTI sports a distinctive front fascia with a slim grille merging into LED headlights and a sporty bumper with vertical air intakes. It rides on bold 19-inch alloy wheels and features slim LED tail lights and twin round exhaust tips around the back.
At its core is a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine producing 265PS and 370Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Power is sent to the front wheels, aided by a limited-slip differential, enabling a 0–100 km/h sprint in under 6 seconds.
