Change your car with Carwow: https://bit.ly/Change-Your-Car-1709 It’s time for a Volkswagen showdown! We’ve got our hands on the all-new Mk 8.5 Golf GTI, and it’s going up against the Mk8 GTI Clubsport and Mk7 Golf R! The question is, can the all-new GTI take down the other two contenders? To start, let’s check out the stats. The Mk7 Golf R has a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo engine that produces 300hp and 380Nm of torque. It comes with four-wheel drive, and the power is sent to the wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. The car weighs in at 1,495kg, and when new the Mk7 R costs around £32,000. The GTI Clubsport is also equipped with a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo engine; in this instance, it puts down 300hp and 400Nm. Power is sent to the front wheels only via a 7-speed dual-clutch, and the car weighs 1,461kg. When new, the Clubsport cost around £40,100. Then finally we come to the newest car, the Mk 8.5 GTI. It also packs a 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo, producing 265hp and 370Nm. Power is sent to the front wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch, and it’s the lightest car here, tipping the scales at 1,454kg. Surprisingly, it’s a bit more expensive than the R, costing around £39,000! So the Mk8.5 GTI is the newest car, but surely it doesn’t have what it takes to bring down the Clubsport or R, right? There’s only one way to find out… LET’S RACE!
