The Golf is one of VW’s most popular and best selling cars, so what could they have done with the 2010 version to make it even more appealing to the masses? How about more power, better fuel economy and a sportier look?
The 2010 incarnation of the VW Golf GTI packs ten more horsepower than the previous version (210 in all), but cranks out the higher power while being even more economical on fuel. It’s estimated that the 2010 Golf GTI will get in excess of thirty miles to the gallon (probably about thirty-two) and still be able to amp up from zero to sixty in less than seven seconds. It’s estimated the new Golf GTI will top out at close to one hundred and fifty miles an hour, and while it’s not tops in its class in terms of power, that is a pretty good punch for a car that’s so economical.
What’s on the Inside?
It’s not just the increase in power under the hood and the money that you’ll save on gas that’s impressive – the interior of the new Golf GTI is also a winner. The cabin is a mix of high function and good fun with sleek lines, aluminum accents, unique trims and the same boatload of amazing options that were available with the previous version.
Among the available options you can accessorize your new Golf with are: a rearview camera, a touch screen navigation system, parallel parking assist and a radar controlled collision avoiding device.
The GTI will come in two body styles – a three door and a five door, but the sleek lines and unique body are equally attractive in both versions.
As high marks in both handling and safety seem standard in the VW family, the Golf GTI is no exception.This car manages to handle very well, has inreased power and is near the top of its class for safety.
Things Keep Getting Better
The Volkswagen family is already proud parents of two powerhouse vehicles in the Jetta and the Passat and with the new innovations and improvements passed along in the 2010 Golf GTI VW seems to be pushing to make the Golf the biggest name of them all.This is now the sixth version and by now VW should claim to know what they are doing. It’s rumored that VW is already poised to launch a turbo-charged version of the 2.0 four cylinder engine that will boast a mighty two hundred and sixty five horsepower to give this little hatchback one heck boost in power.
Increased power, a cleaner and sportier look and incredible fuel economy will make the VW Golf GTI a force to be reckoned with in its class.VW is on track to reach their goal of being the most profitable manufacturer thanks to this car.
