Volkswagen opens orders for the Golf GTI EDITION 50, which could well mark the end of a fully combustion engine era.
On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the GTI, this limited edition develops 239 kW (325 hp) with a torque of 420 Nm. It reaches 270 km/h and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.3 seconds, offering exceptional driving pleasure.
The Golf GTI, an icon since 1976 with more than 2.5 million units sold, is equipped here with a chassis lowered by 15 mm, combining a front MacPherson axle and a four-link rear axle, with standard adaptive DCC suspension adjustment. The 19-inch lightweight “Queenstown” alloy wheels and exclusive design details enhance the sporty and refined style of this anniversary model.
For performance enthusiasts, the optional GTI Performance pack “EDITION 50” offers semi-slick Bridgestone “Potenza Race” tires, forged wheels, a titanium R-Performance exhaust, and a Performance chassis lowered by 5 mm, reducing weight by about 30 kg. Driver Benjamin Leuchter set a record on the Nürburgring Nordschleife with this configuration, completing the 20.832 km lap in 7:46.13.
The interior of the GTI EDITION 50 features sports seats with a checkered pattern and red seat belts, a multifunction steering wheel with the GTI 50 monogram and DSG paddles. The exterior is distinguished by a black roof, black mirror caps and exhaust outlets, as well as black-to-red Tornado gradient side stripes. Five colors are offered, including two exclusives: Metallic Dark Moss Green and Tornado Red.

The Golf GTI EDITION 50 ultimately symbolizes a historic chapter for Volkswagen: the last combustion GTI, where power, sportiness, and GTI DNA combine to entice enthusiasts.
