- Volkswagen India launched the Golf GTI earlier this week at a starting price of Rs. 53 lakh (ex-showroom).
- The performance-oriented hatchback is offered in a single, fully-loaded variant with premium features.
- The Golf GTI has been introduced via the CBU (Completely Built-Up) route.
- Only 150 units were available in the first batch, and all have been pre-booked by customers.
- Due to strong demand, Volkswagen plans to bring in another 100 units in the coming months.
- The second batch is expected to arrive by early next year, with pre-bookings likely to start by end of this year.
- The GTI is powered by a 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine, paired with a 7-speed DCT automatic transmission.
- The engine delivers 265bhp and 370Nm of torque, accelerating from 0–100 km/h in 5.9 seconds.
- The top speed is rated at 267 km/h, highlighting its high-performance capabilities.
- The Golf GTI’s strong reception is notable compared to the Polo GTI’s lackluster sales when it launched in 2016.
