3 Impressive Features of the 2024 VW Golf GTI

The 2024 VW Golf GTI sets itself apart from the competition by delivering exceptional performance in everyday driving as well as on the track. Unlike many rival sports cars that typically aren’t built for daily driving, this high-performance hatchback is just as graceful and competent on country back roads as it is on the racetrack.

3 Impressive Features of the 2024 VW Golf GTI

1. A Well-Crafted Exterior

The 2024 GTI’s handsome appearance is enhanced by its premium exterior features, including sleek 18-inch alloy wheels with all-season tires, puddle lights on the side-view mirrors, and rain-sensing front windshield wipers. The GTI’s imposing front bumper features automatic LED headlights with a courtesy delay to illuminate your entry/exit, LED daytime running lights, LED fog lights, and low-speed cornering lights.

The included Dynamic Headlight Range Control system allows the Golf GTI’s main headlights to detect and respond to various driving conditions. The headlights can dim when the system’s sensors detect other drivers ahead, switch to a dipped beam for well-lit areas, tilt the beams for maximum visibility on steep slopes, and adjust the angle based on the Volkswagen’s speed or load. This year’s Golf GTI also includes LED taillights, heated side-view mirrors, and heated washer nozzles.

2. Robust Mechanical Capabilities

The base-model GTI’s EA888evo4 four-cylinder engine produces 241 horsepower and 273 lb.-ft. of torque. The engine boasts an Audi Valvelift System, giving the sporty hatchback additional power and torque while optimizing fuel consumption. The front-wheel-drive hot hatch achieves 33 MPG on the highway, making it one of the most fuel-efficient sports cars on the vehicle market today. The letters “GTI” stand for “Grand Touring Injection,” which refers to Volkswagen’s advanced direct fuel-injection system.

The Volkswagen Golf GTI features a MacPherson front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension, both equipped with anti-roll bars, coil springs, and telescopic dampers. The front suspension also possesses a lower control arm, which offers additional cornering stability, improved steering responses, greater shock absorption, and optimal weight distribution. To match its thrilling speed, the latest Golf GTI is equipped with power-assisted dual-circuit vented disc brakes at the front and rear.

3. Premium Interior Technology

The 2024 GTI includes adjustable ambient cabin lighting with 30 color options to choose from. The sport-style seats and steering wheel feature heating functions, while the rearview mirror has auto-dimming technology. The dashboard’s eight-inch touchscreen serves as the GTI’s infotainment system, allowing you to listen to music, connect your Apple or Android device, and access your favorite Volkswagen apps.

Several intelligent convenience programs are at your fingertips, such as Adaptive Cruise Control, front and rear Park Distance Control, and a Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Traffic Alert.
