Exploring the Trim Levels of the 2025 Volkswagen Golf GTI: Hot Hatch Options

The sporty 2025 Volkswagen Golf GTI is a turbocharged, four-door hatchback that comes in three sizzling trim levels. Continue reading to discover what each trim brings to the lineup.

S

Kicking off the Volkswagen Golf GTI lineup is the S trim, which comes equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 241 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. With 18-inch wheels fitted with all-season tires, a sport-tuned suspension, and a limited-slip differential, the S trim is ready to cruise over hills and winding roads any time of the year.

To make the ride even more comfortable, the S trim boasts a heated, leather-wrapped steering wheel and heated front Top Sport seats. Other lush interior highlights include an auto-dimming rearview mirror, push-button start, and fun customizable ambient interior lighting.

SE

The SE trim builds upon the base S trim by way of a few luxurious additions. A power-tilting and sliding panoramic sunroof brings the sunshine inside the SE, where the seats get a makeover with ArtVelours synthetic suede upholstery. Using Bluetooth technology, you can sync your phone to the SE’s infotainment system and play your favorite tunes over the nine-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system.

If you are looking to add even more luxury to your SE trim, Volkswagen offers the Leather Seating Surfaces package. This package gives the SE trim leather upholstery and comes with a power-adjustable driver’s seat with memory settings and ventilated front seats.

Autobahn

The final trim in the Volkswagen Golf GTI lineup is the Autobahn trim, which comes with all your creature comforts and more. The Autobahn’s adaptive suspension dampers offer a smooth and comfortable ride. Inside the Autobahn, you will find tri-zone automatic climate control, heated seats, and leather upholstery. Additionally, rear passengers are given their own set of climate controls to ensure optimal comfort for everyone on board.

The Autobahn also comes with some innovative convenience features to make your life easier. The head up display projects important vehicle information onto the windshield within the driver’s line of sight to deter the need to look away from the road. An automated parking system helps the driver steer the vehicle into a parking spot, which is helpful when navigating tight parking spaces.

Safety and Security

All trim levels of the Volkswagen Golf GTI come standard with Volkswagen’s IQ.Drive, which is a suite of advanced driver aids expertly designed to keep you safe. This suite includes automatic emergency braking, collision alerts, and adaptive cruise control.
