- The fifth generation Golf GTI stands for uncompromising driving pleasure - First Volkswagen with new high-torque FSI turbo engine The new Golf GTI is on its way in Europe. The first of the new GTIs powered by a 147 kW / 200 PS turbo engine are due to be delivered this autumn. This new GTI is due to arrive in the U.S. in late 2005 or early 2006. The new model is a thoroughbred GTI following the sporting tradition of its original GTI ancestor, which was unveiled in 1976. Although almost thirty years separate the first and the current fifth generation, the standard remains the same: to give uncompromising driving pleasure. Like the pioneering original, the present day GTI, available with two or four doors, is dominated by an unmistakeable sports look inside and out, a very dynamic engine and extremely taut suspension. The GTI letters are an absolute phenomenon: 93.2 percent of all Europeans and 98.5 of Germans associate them with the Golf. GTI = Golf = Volkswagen. Volkswagen has now started the fifth chapter of its GTI success story. The GTI based on the fifth generation Golf takes cues from its ancestor, but reinterprets typical GTI values with fascinating drive and running gear dynamics and a design which combines power with aesthetics. GTI Engine - To power the Golf GTI, Volkswagen is using a newly developed 2.0 litre FSI turbo engine. The 147 kW / 200 PS direct injection petrol unit with a high-compression ratio of 10.5:1 makes an ideal GTI engine thanks to its dynamic torque curve (280 Nm between 1 800 und 5 000 rpm). With a standard six-speed gearbox, the four cylinders accelerate the GTI to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 7.2 seconds. The GTI goes from 60 km/h (37 mph) to 100 km/h in 5th gear in only 7.5 seconds and reaches its maximum at 235 km/h (146 mph). The Euro 4 engine has an average fuel consumption of a frugal 8.0 litres per 100 kilometres. The extremely quick dual clutch gearbox (DSG) for uninterrupted power in gear changes is available as an option. It enables the GTI to charge to 100 km/h in under 7 seconds (6.9). GTI Exterior - The GTI has a powerful presence with an exterior design which is typical GTI: black radiator grille with red frame, striking front and roof edges and rear spoiler with twin tail pipes, distinctive 17 inch alloy wheels (wide 225 tyres) and red calipers on the four large disc brakes. The GTI look continues with a distinctive bumper, black widened sill panels, high-gloss B pillar trim, blue heat-reflective windows and darkened headlight housings. The GTI exterior, and especially the front end, is also more distinct from the rest of the model series that ever before. Looking at the body lines in detail, the arrow-shaped contours of the bonnet flow unbroken into the newly designed, shield-shaped black radiator grille. The bumper below has three large air scoops supplying intake air to the GTI turbo engine. Like the radiator grille, these are also covered by diamond mesh. GTI Interior - If there ever was such a thing as a classic interior, then the first GTI of 1976 deserves that description. The interior of the new GTI achieves a similar distinctiveness with present day technologies and styles. The seats, for instance, are newly designed for the GTI and offer maximum comfort with the best possible side support and sporty looks. The high seatbacks with integrated, but adjustable headrests underscore the interior's feel of functionality combined with sporting intent. The GTI logo stitched into the headrests is one of the perfect details rounding off the interior. Like the first GTI, the new model has a three-spoke steering wheel with aluminium trim. Today it is even fitted as standard and is covered with perforated leather for a perfect grip. Aluminium is also a major feature of the gearstick knob, the trim inserts and the pedal cluster. Another hallmark of the GTI: the black headliner. GTI Equipment - other interior features specific to the GTI include newly designed instruments, air conditioner (Climatic), multi-function display, illuminated front footwells, automatic anti-dazzle interior mirror, rain sensor, coming home and leaving home lighting function, and a tyre monitor display. On the outside the GTI has characteristic fog lights and a 15 mm lower, specially tuned sports suspension. Like all Golf models, the GTI has a comprehensive package of safety features. It includes the electronic stabilisation programme ESP, active front head restraints, three rear head restraints and six airbags. GTI History - Production of the first GTI was launched in June 1976. There was originally supposed to be a limited edition of just 5 000 GTIs, which were initially available in silver and red only. But then the unexpected happened. The 81 kW / 110 PS GTI, capable of 182 km/h, went on to conquer a new clientele and became the founder of the GTI class. Over four generations the original 5 000 vehicles become over 1.5 million GTIs.

Hade inget o göra...

ja tack, tar gärna den vita bakom :-)

Min gamla röda Golf GTI Special -83 är nog den av mina bilar jag saknar oftast.

ok, så 200Hk FSI:n var turboladdad!
Trodde dom lämnat överladdningen iom FSI.
(Det var nytt för mig!)

Men bilen måste vara tämlig tung då den bara gör 0-100 på 7,2s med 147kW (ca 200pållar)
Vild uppskatting 1300-1500kg.

Hmm men kom presis på att Golf inte längre är en liten bil

om de tillverkar en "clubsport" utan allt lullull som ac, fönsterhissar, ljuddämpning osv. så kan jag tänka mig en.
I mina ögon dog GTI:n redan 1984, sen dess har det gått utför...

Samma gäller Corradon som skulle ta över efter pärlan Scirocco... Större, tyngre, mer lullull, mindre körglödje och ett ofantligt pris.

Är jag en bakåtsträvare? Näää, det tycker jag inte!

Med en enkel lackering av området bakom nummerskylten ser den ut såhär!
Har tänkt det sen jag först såg den och när man har de framför sig så tycker jag de blev mycket bättre...

VARFÖR skall V:A:G envissas med dessa obegripligt fula "val käft" på alla nya modeller.
Räcker väll att Audi ser ut som den gör...

Undra varför de måste göra så att alla bilar inom koncernen ser likadana ut när det räcker med att det under karossen är samma bilar till stora delar.
Jag trodde just att Audis nya grill skulle vara ett sätt att skilja ut Audi från resten men så går de och sätter samma grill på en VW. Helt obegripligt i mina ögon.
