Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) has introduced an enhanced version of the iconic Golf GTI, now equipped with a premium Harman Kardon audio system and a cutting-edge Head-up Display feature. Priced at RM252,990, the updated Golf GTI promises an elevated driving experience with immersive sound quality and augmented safety features.
The Harman Kardon 480-watt audio system, boasting 10 speakers, transforms the interior of the GTI, delivering a captivating surround sound experience and exceptional acoustics. Complementing this audio upgrade is the newly integrated Head-up Display, projecting essential information directly onto the windscreen. This smart feature ensures that vital details like speed, navigation, and system warnings are readily available within the driver’s line of sight, promoting safer and more focused driving.
Renowned for its powerful performance, the Golf GTI is equipped with a 2.0TSI turbocharged engine coupled with a 7-speed wet clutch DSG, generating 245PS and 370Nm of torque. The distinct design elements, including the signature honeycomb front grille, red GTI trims, sporty 18” Richmond alloy wheels with red brake callipers, and full LED headlamps and taillights, contribute to the unmistakable identity of this hot hatch.
Ensuring both safety and convenience, the Golf GTI features the IQ. Drive system, a comprehensive Driver Assistance System (DAS). This system incorporates Travel Assist and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Side Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, and Front Assist with Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), among other functions. These advanced technologies make journeys safer and more comfortable for the driver.
Adding to the appeal, Volkswagen offers a complete package with 5 years of free maintenance, a 5-year unlimited mileage warranty, and 5 years of roadside assistance for the Golf GTI. In conjunction with the launch, VPCM is initiating its first Volkswagen Tour of the year in Penang, taking place from the 4th to the 7th of January 2024, at Queensbay Mall. The event will showcase not only the updated Golf GTI but also other models such as the Arteon R-Line, the Golf R, and the Tiguan Allspace R-Line.
