VW Jetta GLI Gets Features Of Golf GTI, R At The Chicago Auto Show
We were told this would be the one with the power, the four-wheel independent suspension, and the manual transmission. It is finally here and, mechanically, at least, it is all that, starting with the turbocharged 2.0-liter four-pot from the Golf GTI with 228 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. That's 81 hp and 64 lb-ft beyond the standard 2019 Jetta, and 18 horses and 41 lb-ft beyond the previous GLI. The standard transmission is a six-speed manual, and the options sheet offers a seven-speed dual-clutch that adds start/stop. The ride is transmitted through exclusive 18-inch wheels and should be leagues beyond the standard Jetta, thanks to the multi-link rear suspension. Brakes with red calipers come straight from the Golf R, which means 13.4-inch vented front discs. The sporty sibling also provides the electronically controlled limited slip differential. The body sits 0.6 inches lower than the sedate Jetta, the aggression abetted by a black honeycomb grille with red accents, a redrawn bumper, and standard LED projector headlights. LED taillights are included beneath a rear spoiler, the rear bumper's got a slightly new line, and the finned rear diffuser houses chrome exhaust tips.
At motorway speeds, the GTI is the quietest car inside, so it will be easy to live with day to day. While it will work for some people, the Polo misses out on the crucial fun factor we look for in hot hatches. Testers鈥?notes: 鈥淲e can鈥檛 wait to try the manual version of the Polo, as an auto doesn鈥檛 make much sense here. The Fiesta ST is still the best model in its class - and with it, one of the best cars on sale today. It鈥檚 fast, supremely fun to drive, usable every day and above all great value for money. Few sports cars are as much fun as the Fiesta ST on British roads, let alone hatchbacks. It鈥檚 just a shame the engine isn鈥檛 an all-time great, as this could have been a true fast Ford legend. With all the praise being heaped on the Fiesta ST, it would be easy to dismiss the MINI Cooper S. But it鈥檚 nearly as much fun as the Ford, while the punchy 2.0-litre engine is brilliant as well.
It loses out a little due to higher running costs and pricey option packs that reduce its value for money. It lacks practicality, but if you can afford one, the MINI is a great fun choice. If you鈥檙e looking for a hot hatch you can drive easily in comfort every day, the Polo is worth a look. It鈥檚 practical, fast and mature, but in pursuit of those goals, the Polo is missing a sense of humour that鈥檚 desperately needed in a car like this. The others are brilliant fun all of the time, while the Polo is refined and relaxed - but for us that misses the point of the supermini hot hatch. New: Renault Clio R.S. There aren鈥檛 many supermini hot hatches that feature auto boxes like the Polo here, but the Clio R.S. It鈥檚 a shame the dual-clutch unit is sluggish, although the Renault has plenty of power and fun handling. The previous Fiesta ST is an all-time great, and you can get a used version of the most powerful ST 200 run-out model for around 拢16,000. It鈥檚 stiffer than the new car, but has a more exciting engine and is just as much fun to drive.

This undated photo provided by Volkswagen shows the 2018 Volkswagen Golf GTI. The car packs a turbocharged 220-horsepower engine, and you can get it with a six-speed manual or a six-speed dual-clutch automatic. This undated photo provided by Mini shows the 2018 Mini Hardtop John Cooper Works. Thanks to its petite size, pug nose and boxy profile, the Mini Hardtop is one of the most easily identifiable cars on the road. This undated photo provided by Hyundai shows the 2019 Hyundai Veloster. Hyundai's redesigned Veloster has one door on the driver side and two doors on the passenger side. This asymmetrical layout improves access for rear passengers while maintaining the look of a traditional coupe.
