It's basically a production version of a namesake concept shown several months ago and packs an extra 35 PS (26 kW) compared to the Golf GTI Performance which used to be the range-topping FWD Golf.
This new version has as standard 265 PS (195 kW), but for about ten seconds it turns into a 290 PS (213 kW) machine thanks to an overboost function ideal for performing overtakes. You will be happy to hear Volkswagen will sell this car with a six-speed manual and a DSG, so everybody should be pleased. If performance is your top priority, go for the DSG-equipped model as it runs the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in as little as 5.9 seconds whereas the manual model needs 6 seconds. Regardless of transmission, the Golf GTI Clubsport will top out at an electronically limited 155 mph (250 km/h).
