2019 Volkswagen Golf GTI
The 2019 VW Golf has swapped its former 1.8-liter turbocharged engine for the newer 1.4-liter turbo also found in the new Jetta. With 147 horsepower, it鈥檚 down 23 horsepower but is expected to further increase fuel economy. Also new are the transmissions. A 6-speed manual is standard, but most buyers will opt for the new 8-speed automatic. We鈥檝e found both well-suited to this engine. The GTI continues to use a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder, but gets another increase in power. For 2019, the GTI gains eight horsepower for a total of 228 and keeps its stout 258 lb-ft of torque. Its transmission choices are a 6-speed manual or new 7-speed DSG automatic. Both the Golf and GTI are front-wheel drive. The Golf R is the highest-performance model and comes with all-wheel drive standard and a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder that makes 288 horsepower. Like the GTI, it offers a 6-speed manual or 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission. The battery-powered e-Golf uses an electric motor to power the front wheels. It can recharge in about six hours on a 240-volt outlet and is compatible with DC fast-charging stations. Its range is estimated at 125 miles, which is on the low end of the latest crop of electric cars. The Chevrolet Bolt, for comparison, is rated up to 238 miles, while the new Hyundai Kona EV has been certified for 258 miles on a charge.
