In addition to the previously announced Golf GTD , Volkswagen will launch the new Golf GTI at the Geneva Motor Show next week.
For the first time, the iconic hatchback will be available with two power levels: 220 or 230 horsepower (the latter with the optional performance pack).
Both versions are equipped with a Stop-Start system, and will meet the EU-6 emissions standard that takes effect in 2014. As for fuel economy, VW claims that the new GTI offers an 18% gain over the previous model.
The car sports red-painted brake callipers, 17'' Brooklyn wheels, special side skirts, dual chrome exhaust tips, and a lowered sport suspension.
The new Volkswagen Golf GTI is scheduled to hit the European market this May. Details for other markets have not been released yet.
