Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) has unveiled an upgraded version of the Golf GTI, now equipped with a premium Harman Kardon audio system and a Head-up Display. Priced at RM252,990, these enhancements aim to provide an elevated driving experience for enthusiasts.
The addition of the Harman Kardon 480-watt audio system complements the Golf GTI’s interior, delivering an immersive surround sound experience through its 10 speakers. This feature enhances the overall ambience of the GTI, providing impressive acoustics for an immersive driving experience.
Another notable feature introduced in the upgraded Golf GTI is the Head-up Display. This innovative safety feature projects essential information directly onto the driver’s field of vision on the windscreen. Vital data, including speed, navigation details, and system warnings, is presented in a way that allows drivers to stay informed without diverting their attention from the road.
The Golf GTI, a renowned icon among hot hatches, continues to impress with its powerful performance. It is powered by a 2.0TSI turbocharged engine coupled with a 7-speed wet clutch DSG, generating an impressive 245PS and 370Nm of torque. Recognisable by its signature honeycomb front grille, red GTI trims, and sporty 18” Richmond alloy wheels, the Golf GTI also features full LED headlamps and taillights.
In addition to its performance and aesthetic features, the Golf GTI boasts the IQ. Drive system, a comprehensive Driver Assistance System (DAS) that enhances safety and comfort. This system includes features such as Travel Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Side Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Front Assist (AEB), Lane Assist, and Adaptive Lane Guidance.
VPCM is offering a complete package for the Golf GTI, including 5 years of free maintenance, 5 years of unlimited mileage warranty, and 5 years of roadside assistance. To showcase the updated Golf GTI and other Volkswagen models, VPCM is launching its first Volkswagen Tour of the year in Penang, featuring models such as the Arteon R-Line, Golf R, and Tiguan Allspace R-Line, along with test drive opportunities.
