Design and Comfort
Exterior
Red pinstripe accents, a sporty roof spoiler, and dual exhaust pipes leave no doubt – this is a GTI. New for 2025? A redesigned front end with standard illuminated light line, emblem, and door handles. Plus, bold new colours like Urano Grey, Oyster Silver Metallic, Ice Blue Metallic, and Slate Blue Metallic.
Interior
Continuing the GTI legacy, fully-functional dual chrome exhaust outlets in the rear bumper let everyone know the power of this hatch is not to be underestimated.
Sport Exhaust
Continuing the GTI legacy, fully functional dual chrome exhaust outlets in the rear bumper let everyone know the power of this hot hatch is not to be underestimated.
LED Lights
The Golf GTI comes with standard LED headlights and available Light Assist, which automatically flips the high beams on or off when needed. Plus, the LED fog lights have the GTI’s signature “5 X” design that cuts through darkness with style.
Walk the walk
The GTI’s sleek design isn’t just about looks – it’s about performance. A roof spoiler and optimized exterior elements enhance aerodynamics for a more efficient (and exhilarating) drive.
Performance
Engine
The 2.0 L TSI® engine delivers an impressive 241 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque, while the standard “VAQ” electronically controlled limited slip differential gives you sure-footed traction for all sorts of challenging conditions.
*Please drive safely and obey all local traffic laws, including speed limits.
Transmission
The GTI’s 7-speed DSG® transmission delivers lightning-fast gear changes for a seamless driving experience.
Vehicle Dynamics Manager (VDM)
The Vehicle Dynamics Manager (VDM) constantly monitors driver input to optimize vehicle response, creating a neutral balance with minimal understeer. In the Autobahn trim, which is equipped with available Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC) adaptive dampers, the VDM can adjust individual wheel damping rates 200 times per second for improved lateral agility and stability.
Summer Performance Tires
Grip the road with confidence. The Autobahn trim comes standard with 19" Queenstown machined alloy wheels and high-performance summer tires for maximum grip and responsiveness.
*The use of winter tires is mandatory in some provinces. Proper winter or all-season tires are recommended for wet, snowy, or icy conditions.
Limited Slip Differential (VAQ)
The Vorderachsquersperre (or VAQ) is a torque-sensing, electro-hydraulic limited slip differential that’s electronically controlled for ultimate precision. Working in concert with the Golf GTI’s Vehicle Dynamics Manager, VAQ controls torque distribution across the front axle. When accelerating out of a corner or in slippery conditions, VAQ is designed to precisely shift power left –and right for improved traction and control.
Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC)
Available on the Autobahn trim, Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC) reacts to the road surface and driving conditions to adjust the suspension damping rate and optimize performance. Pre-set profiles include Comfort, Eco, and Sport, while Individual mode offers even further customization.
Sports Steering Wheel
Take control with the GTI’s new sport steering wheel, featuring a refined design and physical buttons.
Technology and Convenience
Head-Up Display (HUD)
Keep your eyes safely fixed on the road with the available Head-Up Display (HUD). Once activated, a section of the windshield becomes a projection surface to display key driver details like speed and navigation instructions.
Legendary Seating
Experience the perfect blend of support and comfort with the GTI’s iconic plaid cloth sport seats, standard on the base trim. Looking for a more premium feel? Go for the available Artvelour seating surfaces.
VW Digital Cockpit
Volkswagen’s 10.25” Digital Cockpit Pro is standard in every Golf GTI. By default, the sport layout puts a large tachometer front –and centre, but the layout is widely configurable with views focusing on driver assistance, a classic two-dial style, or even a minimalist approach.
Harman/kardon® audio
