The official Volkswagen dealer introduces the limited edition model ‘Golf GTI Limited Edition’, which maximizes the dynamic sensibilities of the Golf GTI, limited to just 100 units.
The Golf GTI Limited Edition features a special OETTINGER aerodynamic body kit designed specifically for the 8th generation Golf GTI, further enhancing the intense charisma of this hot hatch special edition.
With over 70 years of history, OETTINGER is a world-renowned tuning company that develops and produces exclusive tuning products for four brands under the Volkswagen Group—Volkswagen, Audi, Škoda, and SEAT. Their long-standing cooperative relationship with Volkswagen Group has earned them recognition for their unparalleled technological prowess.
The newly launched Golf GTI Limited Edition incorporates the front and roof spoilers, and rear diffuser that OETTINGER has presented to optimize aerodynamic performance while completing a dynamic design.
The front spoiler effectively reduces the vehicle’s lift, effectively minimizing air resistance, while the roof edge spoiler and rear diffuser accentuate the naturally dynamic silhouette of the Golf, creating a compact Golf Clubsport look. Additionally, a ‘Wolfsburg badge’, symbolic of Wolfsburg, Germany—the birthplace of the Golf—is provided, adding a touch of uniqueness exclusive to the Golf GTI Limited Edition.
The GTI model is equipped with the most advanced EA888 evo4 2.0 TSI high-performance turbocharged direct injection gasoline engine, delivering a powerful output of 245 horsepower and peak torque of 37.7 kg.m. Paired with a 7-speed DSG transmission optimized for sporty driving, it offers a thrilling driving experience. The certified fuel economy is 11.5 km/l combined, 10.1 km/l in the city, and 13.9 km/l on the highway.
The ‘Vehicle Dynamics Manager’ integrates the electronic stability control (ESC), adaptive chassis control (DCC), and electronically controlled hydraulic front differential lock (VAQ) to provide precise and agile vehicle control and dynamic driving experiences. Also featured is the combination of variable steering rack and pinion gearing with a powerful electric motor, ensuring precise and responsive handling. Furthermore, advanced driving assistance and safety systems are extensively equipped, including the innovative intelligent interactive lighting system ‘IQ.Light-LED Matrix Headlamps’, ‘Travel Assist’, ‘Side Assist’, ‘Front Assist with Forward Collision Warning’, and emergency braking systems.
The Golf GTI Limited Edition, limited to 100 units, comes at a price of 52,300,000 KRW (including VAT). For existing Golf GTI customers wishing to purchase the body kit separately, it can be ordered through official Volkswagen dealers.
