We've Got Bad News For Fans Of The Volkswagen Golf

We've Got Bad News For Fans Of The Volkswagen Golf





There is a silver lining, however, because although the US won't receive the base Golf or Golf SportWagen, the GTI and Golf R will both be safe. VW didn't provide an official explanation for why the base Golf is being discontinued for the US but the reasoning isn't hard to make out. The GTI and R models already account for around 48% of all Golf family sales and the GTI outsells the standard hatchback model almost three-to-one. If we had to choose one Golf model for VW to kill off, we are happy it is the base model rather than the GTI or R models. And with no base Golf model to sit below the GTI, we wonder if it will drop the Golf name entirely when it is offered in the US. VW has called it the 'GTI' in the US without attaching the Golf name in the past, so this is a very real possibility.

So you get better braking, all-up more power, and the limited-slip differential to help with the handling. So at least on paper, the GLI is on par with the GTI. But if you take both cars to a track, is there anything that's going to stand out as a difference between them and the way they drive other than just not having the hatch behind you? The expectation is that they should be pretty comparable on a racetrack. The GLI, because of its shape as a sedan, especially with the coupe-ish-type sedan, it actually has a much better drag coefficient, so on a straight-away, depending what track it is, there could be some difference in favor of GLI. GLI is also a little heavier. So there could be some difference in acceleration, in favor of GTI, but depending on the track and the driver we expect it to be pretty close. As far as demographics go, what's the difference that you expect to see, or have seen in the past, between the person who buys a GTI, and who buys a GLI?
