Volkswagen hasn't released any official performance figures, but expect the new GTI to be snappy.

Volkswagen on Thursday took the wraps off its new

eighth-generation Golf GTI, ahead of the 2020 Geneva International Motor Show. Evolutionary rather than revolutionary , it is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged direct-injection engine that churns outs 180kW and a reasonably healthy 370Nm worth of torque.A six-speed manual transmission is standard , but we're sure most customers will spec the new optional seven a McPherson front axle and multi-link rear suspension.

According to Volkswagen, this “increases the spread between maximum comfort and maximum dynamics, and the vehicle benefits from significantly sharpened driving dynamics as a result”. Seventeen-inch “Richmond” alloy wheels come fitted as standard, but you can choose to specify 18- or 19-inch alternatives. A new design feature we quite like are the five individual fog lights integrated into each side of the car's gaping honeycomb grille.Inside you'll find a huge 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system offering the latest and greatest in smartphone integration.
