Recently, the all-new 2015 Volkswagen GTI made its way to
our lots, and we couldn’t be more excited about it and what it has to offer! It
is the total package: comfortable, great steering and handling, and excellent
performance and fuel economy. Keep reading to find out more!
The seventh-generation 2015
VW GTI uses a brand new front-wheel-drive platform that will be the future
for several VW models. It is a wider platform with a wheelbase that is 2 inches
longer than current GTI models. It will come powered by a 2.0-liter
turbocharged direct-injection four-cylinder engine that makes 200 horsepower
and 207 pound-foot of torque. It comes paired to a six-speed manual
transmission. The EPA estimates it will average 21/31 mpg, city and highway.
All models will come with an electronic differential lock on their front axle
to improve handling and traction as well as progressive electric power steering
that allows for higher effort while cornering and lower effort at parking
speeds.
It comes with all the latest safety and interior features. Some
of the safety features include all the class standard airbags, four-wheel
antilock brakes, ventilated front/solid rear disc brakes, emergency brake
assist, electronic brakeforce distribution, electronic stability control,
traction control, and daytime running lights. Interior features include power
accessories, power mirrors, heated front seats, cloth upholstery, trip
computer, cruise control, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, air
conditioning, 8-speaker sound system, AM/FM/CD/MP3 stereo, auxiliary audio
input and iPod integration, Sirius XM satellite radio, and Bluetooth
connectivity.
