Volkswagen Design Vision GTI

The wraps have come off the eye-catching Volkswagen Design Vision GTI at the ongoing Wörthersee event in the Austrian city of Reifnitz.

With an outrageous 503 PS and 560 Nm of torque from its 3.0 litre twin-turbo V6, the Mk7 Golf GTI-based concept does the century sprint in just under four seconds, en route towards a 300 km/h top speed, with the aid of AWD and DSG.

“We wanted to bring out the design elements of the GTI as concisely, dynamically and emotionally as we could so as to get to the heart of the fascination that this car emanates,” said VW design head Klaus Bischoff.

      Yes, probably the price is higher than 3 series and Golf R. VW is shifting its status to a premium brand which i’m not sure a good thing or a bad thing?

        I kinda think the same as you do. Hopefully it’s a good thing because it’s a hot hatch.

    Looks like its gonna get AWD. But with the engine being transverse, it might be front biased system with Haldex diff ala the Audi RS3 (not sure if the Golf R32 previously also had this setup). But do hope that Haldex (or whoever makes the diff) at least gives it 50/50% between front & rear axles to make it neutral. Otherwise, if current application of Haldex goes (which is very front heavy), handling is gonna be under-steery with so much torque available.
