The day has finally arrived for the Volkswagen Golf GTI Edition 35 to go on sale. This vehicle was introduced at the Wörthersee GTI meeting last June. Dealerships could now take orders but deliveries will start this October. It is powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine that offers 235 hp (an extra 25 compared to the standard GTI) at 5,500 rpm. It even has 221 lb-ft (300 Nm) of torque at 2,200 rpm. The front-wheel-drive hot hatch could go from 0 to 62 mph in 6.6 seconds and can reach a top speed of 153 mph (246 km/h).
The Volkswagen Golf GTI Edition 35 features a new bodykit that has new side skirts and a revised front bumper. It also gets bi-xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights, lightweight 18-inch ‘Watkins Glen’ alloy wheels that are finished in ‘Dark Steel’ or silver, an Edition 35 badge on the front wing, gloss black door mirror casings, rear windows with 90% tinted glass and rear tinted LED lights.
The interiors have ‘35’ signatures on numerous elements, as well as a red stripe on the seatbelts and the GTI ‘golf ball’ gearknob, which is available for either the manual or the double-clutch DSG transmission. Prices for the GTI Edition 35 start at £27,525 (RRP OTR) for the manual three-door model. There is a £1,295 premium for the DSG gearbox and £585 for five doors.
