2016 VW Golf R Quick Take Review
1102016 VW Golf R Quick Take Review
The 2016 VW Golf R uses Volkswagen’s familiar 2-litre four cylinder turbo and the company says it makes 292 horsepower and 280 pounds of torque. But that’s a lie. The aftermarket and enthusiast community have indeed discovered it makes a little bit more than those numbers. You can find that out on your own, but the consensus seems to be that the official numbers are a wee bit pessimistic.
There’s the six speed dual clutch PDK gearbox of course, which definitely doesn’t get the credit that it’s due, and helping get all of this excessive power to the ground is the all wheel drive system.
What is the Volkswagen Golf R? Is it a hot hatch or is it something more?
