VW Golf GTI Edition 30 goes into production - 230 Hp & 0-100 km/h in 6,6 sec
As anticipated, VW decided to put the commemorative concept, Golf GTI Edition 30, which was unveiled a few months ago, to celebrate 30th anniversary of the original 1976 Golf GTI, into production. Engine: Like the prototype, the production version of the Golf GTI Edition 30 gets an uprated version of the 2.0-litre TFSI engine that pumps out 230 PS -an increase of 30 Hp over the standard car. This is mated to a choice of six-speed manual or sequential DSG gearboxes channelling drive through the front wheels. 0 to 100 km/h (62mph) comes in 6,6 sec with the DSG gearbox and 6,8 sec with the standard 6speed manual. Top speed in both versions reaches 241 km/h (150 mph).
Exterior: . New body-coloured side skirts are paired with a new chin spoiler for the front bumper and a body-coloured rear bumper. A subtle "GTI" badge sits on the bootlid below tinted rear lights. Unfortunately, the ultra black alloy's of the prototype are gone and in their place VW put a set of 18-inch "
Interior: Inside, the GTI Edition 30 benefits from unique sports seats finished in "Interlagos" cloth trim and completed with leather side bolsters and headrest. The distinctive golf ball gear knob synonymous with the Mk1 GTI also makes a welcome comeback. Elsewhere silver sill plates featuring a unique "Edition 30" logo are joined by the sculpted leather GTI steering wheel complete with red stitching.
Availability: This special version will be a built in a limited numbers and it will be available throughout VW dealers in
