    It's a description rather than a review, isn't it?
    90% of that feels like VW press kit.

      I know its not all about power, but only 152kW? If they said "Yea we got 180kW, but our driveline can put power down better than an MPS, so ours is just as quick to 100km/h," I could see it being marketable. As it is, it would want to be at the cheap end of the hot hatch segment if they aren't going to compete with performance.

        Don't be so quick to underestimate it.

        Having driven the 118kw Twin-Charged Golf VI, it's quite impressive. Feels nearly as quick as the GTi Golf V. So I can only imagine that whatever engine they're planning on using in the Golf VI GTi would definately perform better than you'd initially expect.

          very interested to see how this car performs with regards to the new suspension set up.
          Its got big shoes to fill with the gti v winning best performance car under
          60 grand for the 3rd consecutive year in a row.
          I'll be looking forward to a test drive to see what it can deliver as a package
          and thats where the gti out shines the others!!

            The new suspension is the same as the old suspension, but with electric solenoids mounted to the shocks.

            I'm hoping it doesn't have a 'Comfort' mode
