This means that it could be powered by either a 2.0-litre TFSI engine that produces 210bhp that is found on the standard Golf GTI, or a 2.0-litre turbocharged unit which has 235bhp and sourced from the Golf R and Golf GTI Edition 35. The pictures reveal that the Golf GTI Cabriolet will have lowered suspension, and transmission options should include a six-speed manual or Volkswagen’s DSG gearbox.
Cosmetically, the Golf GTI Cabriolet features a bespoke aero kit a new front bumper, a GTI grille with red accents, a rear diffuser with a honeycomb grille and unique exhaust tail pipes on either side, plus a front spoiler, extended wheel arches and side sills, all finished in a piano black hue. Five spoke alloy wheels and the GTI-embossed, body-hugging sports seats complete the package.
The other concepts that Volkswagen has brought to the party are based on the Golf R hatchback. Called the Golf R Colour Concepts, they consist of two Golf R hot hatches that are intended to demonstrate the Golf’s numerous customisation possibilities.
The first of the Golf R Colour Concepts is dressed in a mid-tone “Velvet Grey Metallic” exterior finish with polished 19-inch “Talladega” alloy wheels, orange painted brake callipers and carbon mirror caps, and features a set of two-tone motorsport seats with the shell finished in a black piano paint, and carbon fibre accents on the steering wheel, gear shift lever and the door sill plates for the interior.
The second Golf R Colour Concept is painted in “Aplomb Blue” and comes equipped with 19-inch “Glendale” wheels that are new to the Golf line-up, while the exterior mirror caps, interior accents and the door sill plates are made of carbon. It also gets motorsports seats with different colour options.
