VW Golf GTI TCR unveiled with 330 hp
Volkswagen is celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Golf GTI by introducing the new Golf GTI TCR. Jointly developed by Seat and Volkswagen Motorsport, the model is a customer racing car that is designed to compete in the TCR International Series. Given its purpose, the model has been equipped with an aerodynamic wide body kit that includes a new front bumper, a ventilated hood, and extended wheel arches. The body kit also includes revised side skirts and a sporty rear bumper. Since the car was designed for racing, it has been outfitted with a number of aerodynamic styling tweaks including a carbon fiber front splitter and a carbon fiber rear wing. The model also rides on 18-inch racing wheels wrapped in Michelin tires.
Lightweight VW Golf GTI Clubsport reportedly headed for Wörthersee
The Volkswagen Golf GTI Clubsport was introduced less than a year ago and it appears the company has already created a more extreme variant. Citing a "high-ranking official," Autocar is reporting Volkswagen engineers have created a lightweight version of the hot hatch. The car was reportedly inspired by the Porsche 911 GT3 Clubsport and is designed to be a street-legal race car that is suitable for track day events.
