The Golf R Variant is a family-friendly sports Variant that is relatively new to the Volkswagen range. Until 2014, the Golf R was only available in two-door and four-door versions. In 2015, Volkswagen launched an Variant version of its top-of-the-range Golf model. The current version has a power output of 228 kW / 310 PS and an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h. However, the speed limiter can be deactivated by the optional R-Performance package, in which case, the maximum speed is boosted to 267 km/h. The Golf R Variant always has a seven-speed DSG gearbox and therefore has Launch Control as a standard feature. With this function activated, the all-round sports car can accelerate to 100 km/h in only 4.8 seconds.

The race track is made for your Golf R Variant. You'll notice that, if you accelerate with the launch control start from a standstill. Just as you would expect from a sporty car.

With your Golf R Variant you can exclusively switch off the automatic stabilization program ESC. So you drive without electronic help and still retain full control of your vehicle.

The perforated brake disc with special brake pads at the front and the silver logo plate on the brake caliper are part of the R-Performance brake system, which comes into its own, especially when driving in a sporty manner. In combination with the optional rims of the 19-inch "Pretoria" alloy wheels weighing only 9.6 kg, it becomes particularly sporty - especially with the optional semi-slicks.

By lifting the speed limit of 250 km / h, your Golf R Variant can reach top speeds of up to 263 km / h.

The new company logo is characterized by the pristine line width and a clearly horizontal arrangement featuring dynamic curves. Moreover, the prominent diagonal line serves as a stark contrast, thus underscoring the brand’s overall progressiveness. The elongated R creates a broader, more powerful impression and defines Volkswagen’s commitment to performance and exclusivity.

The Golf R Variant ensures a confident appearance on the road: from the black-lined LED headlights with daytime running lights and dynamic cornering lights to the front bumpers in a motorsport look with R-specific, shiny black radiator grille. And the rear also makes an impression: with the powerful contours of the rear bumper, the R-specific diffuser in high-gloss black and the darkened LED taillights, it is immediately clear why the Golf R Variant is at least one car ahead. Other eye-catchers are the Schwellerverbreiterung in black high gloss and the R logo on the side panels and the boot lid. The matching mirror caps in matt chrome or optionally in the variants carbon or black gloss round off the distinctive design perfectly.
