Golf GTI
81569-MY16 Golf GTI Brochure Update V6.indd 1 2015/07/29 3:23 PM
This shot of pure adrenaline will leave your wits behind.
But if you still yearn for more, the exclusive Performance
Pack will push the envelope even further with 169kW of
power and dynamic handling that results in a package
boasting cutting-edge performance. The GTI has the
winning edge.
Strap yourself in, take a deep breath and press down the
aluminium-capped accelerator pedal. From that moment the
benchmark performance of the Golf GTI will take over in all its
glory, as you sprint from 0-100 km/h in 6.4 seconds. And it’s
up to 42kg lighter than the previous generation, resulting in
the best ever power to weight ratio. With a top speed of
248 km/h for the 2.0 TSI Performance Pack, it’s no wonder the
Golf GTI is defining a whole new era for high performance cars.
Harness the competitive spirit of the Golf GTI with ease
as you feel the impeccable best-in-class handling and
driveability at work. The GTI sports suspension asserts
its dominance with its front axle McPherson struts and
independent suspension, as well as a multi-link rear axle
with a modular lightweight suspension. The all-new standard
progressive steering and Transverse Electronic Differential
Lock (XDS) provides an intuitive and instinctive response as
you manoeuvre hairpin bends with pin-point precision.
So fast it’s tough to clink clearly.
Better. Faster. Lighter. Control that defies physics.

All leaders have vision and foresight. That is why the
Golf GTI has a host of intuitive driver assist systems to
keep you safe. The Rest Assist Fatigue Detection System
monitors your driving behaviour and lets you know
when you need to take a break, while the Multi-collision
Braking System complements its ability to accelerate with
phenomenal stopping power in the event of an accident.
The new generation Anti-lock Braking System (ABS),
Anti-Spin Regulator (ASR), Electronic Stability Programme
(ESP) with Brake Assist and Electronic Brake-force
Distribution (EBD) will make sure you stay firmly on the
road. Because at Volkswagen we put people first. Always.
Rebels. Pioneers. Mavericks. They are the ones who shape
the world. That’s why the Golf GTI defines a new era of
innovation. With optional innovative features such as the
KESSY keyless entry, Adaptive Chassis Control, Park Assist,
rear-view camera and high beam control Light Assist you can
make the impossible possible. A 6.5” affinity touchscreen
senses your finger movements and reacts even before you
touch it. You can take pleasure in listening to the Composition
Media Radio/CD system with MP3/WMA compatibility, 8
speakers, Bluetooth, SD Card and USB port.
The future has arrived in the GTI.
Safety first. Last. Everything.
Future-proof innovation.
With all the power that the Golf GTI unleashes, it is just
as essential that the interior is built for premium luxury
and driving comfort. The leather interior with red stitching
and chrome trims bolster you perfectly as you tear up the
road. The high quality interior cabin has a premium and
sophisticated layout and feel. Wrap yourself in superior
comfort and luxury. The GTI’s interior is much more cockpit,
much less cabin.
Interior eye candy.
Introducing the Performance Pack. Think even sharper
handling, stronger brakes and increased power with an
additional 7kW. The front limited-slip differential lock results
in the ability to accelerate out of corners earlier and Adaptive
Chassis Control (DCC) allows for various driving modes
(Comfort, Normal and Sport) with the push of a button.
We’ve also added bigger front disc brakes and topped off the
package with red painted brake calipers with GTI branding.
Get ready to impress.
Small changes can make a big difference.

The exterior design is all unmistakably GTI with the red pinstriped front honeycomb grille, dual chrome tailpipes, red brake calipers and 18” Austin alloy wheels. Its independent spirit can be
sensed in its aggressive stance, and the standard LED front fog lights as well as the optional Bi-Xenon headlight package only adds to the pedigree of the Golf GTI. The perfect combination of
beauty and beast.
Beauty and the beast.
