The 2025 Volkswagen Golf GTI is an updated version of the Mk8 generation, focusing on technology, refinement, and performance. It retains the 2.0L turbo engine with 241 hp but is now offered exclusively with a 7-speed DSG automatic transmission, a decision that has sparked criticism from purist fans. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.9 seconds.

Available globally, the 2025 GTI will have varying prices. Highlights include the new MIB4 infotainment system with ChatGPT-powered voice assistant, a fully digital customizable cockpit, and a comprehensive set of driver-assist features (IQ.DRIVE). Trim levels include S, SE, and Autobahn, each offering different equipment and comfort levels.
Key changes include the return of physical buttons on the steering wheel, a more responsive infotainment system, and subtle exterior design tweaks. Despite dropping the manual gearbox, the GTI continues to strike a balance between sportiness and practicality, competing with rivals like the Honda Civic Si and Hyundai Elantra N. The 2025 GTI remains a benchmark in the hot hatch segment, now more high-tech and premium than ever.
