The Volkswagen Golf GTI S is notable because, despite its small stature and compact car design, it’s quite powerful. Under the hood is a 2-liter TSI® inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, which delivers 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a 6-speed manual transmission, you’ll have control over shifts, though you can choose to have a 7-speed DSG® automatic transmission if you prefer.
The selectable driving modes let you have control over how the car performs. You’re able to adjust the drive to your liking. Want a more intense feel? Flip things over to Sport mode. Looking to dial things back to make your ride as fuel-efficient as possible? Use the Eco mode.
The “Clark Plaid” cloth seating surfaces are a nod to the heritage of this vehicle, giving the cabin a design you won’t find in many other vehicles. Plus, the heated front seats are able to warm you on a cold morning or chilly night.
Volkswagen Car-Net® App Connect allows you to connect a compatible smartphone using Apple CarPlay™ or Android Auto™ technology. It’s easy to plug your smartphone in using the USB port. Select apps will display on the touchscreen right in front of you, providing access to navigation, music, and more.
It’s easy to notice the major change to this car’s interior on the SE trim. The Volkswagen Golf GTI features standard leather seats on the SE trim, which gives the cabin a more luxurious feel.
The 6.5-inch touchscreen, which comes standard on the S trim level, is intuitive and easy to use. However, if you’re looking for a bigger touchscreen, you’ll want to upgrade to the SE trim. This 8-inch color display makes it easier to see navigation maps and other apps.
If you’re a fan of music, live sports, and talk, then the SiriusXM® All Access plan is for you. Coming with a 3-month trial subscription, this plan gives you every channel on your satellite radio, which includes premium programming.
The Volkswagen Golf GTI Autobahn adds on five key features you won’t find in any other trim:
Adaptive Cruise Control helps to keep a preset distance from the car ahead. When the system is activated, if the car in front of you speeds up or slows down, the sensors on your car will be able to detect this action and make necessary changes.
Out of all of these features, Park Assist may be the one you’ll love showing off most. It can steer your car into a parking space while you operate the accelerator, brake, and shifter.
Take advantage of these features on every drive and become a more-informed Volkswagen driver.
The compact 2019 Volkswagen Golf GTI carries an outsized persona. With its powerful engine, interior features, and technology offerings, the 2019 VW Golf GTI is a joy to own in Warwick, Providence, and Coventry.
