The 2014 Golf GTI's engine is based on the EA-888 engine concept which remarkably reduces fuel consumption and emits superb power at increasing torque levels. The turbo-charged petrol engine features both multi-point injection and direct injection.
One of GTI's powerful innovations is a brand new concept cylinder head which features a water-cooled exhaust gas circulation loop and an integrated turbocharger. The Golf GTI's internally ventilated front wheel discs and improved suspensions make it not just stable a vehicle but a performer.
