The Golf also sports a 6-speed DSG transmission that is capable of revving up to 8,000 rpm and upshifting as quickly as 0-60 mph within 6.1 seconds. Drivers have more than enough power to manage winding, steep roads, and much more with this type of powertrain.
Exterior and Interior Design
The 2022 Golf GTI is as enthusiastic about driving as you are, and it shows. A narrow spoked wheel design that allows users a great sight of the car’s brakes, a panoramic sunroof, and X-shaped fog lights distinguish the elegant exterior appearance.
The steering wheel is outfitted with multi-function touch controls, and also the instrument cluster has digital indicators. The cargo capacity within the Golf is more than adequate in every seat, with more than 90 ft of interior space accessible. The seats are heated and come in the typical tartan plaid pattern.
