VW Golf 7 GTI vs. Golf 8 GTI: Ist die neue Generation tatsächlich besser? Vergleich | Test | Review

#VW #Golf #GTI The sharpened new edition of the sports icon is more digital and boasts comprehensive updates to the chassis, engine, and controls. We've compared the brand-new generation to its predecessor (Performance, pre-facelift). Does the new Golf GTI still ignite that same spark? A comparison with Joshua Hildebrand. Let's refrain from cult-like rhetoric, legend-building, or similar accolades. Even after 44 years, the asphalt icon receives more than enough praise from all quarters. The GTI simply appears everywhere. In front of the kebab shop, in the university parking lot, in upscale neighborhoods, scraping the side of the road at tuning meets, or with a roll cage and semi-slick tires on the Nordschleife.

While the base model leaned heavily towards everyday usability, the more powerful Performance, Clubsport, and TCR versions provided a more sustained and satisfying thrill. With the eighth generation, Volkswagen delivers all the spirited GTI virtues again, starting with the base model, and blends them seamlessly with the exciting new digital world. The Wolfsburg designers and engineers have done a superb job of making all of this practical for everyday driving. … Do you like GUTE FAHRT TV?
