![]() But, on the flip side, the latter is $6,000 and $11,000 more expensive than them respectively. Speaking of the figures draw a stark 0.9 second slower 0-60 MPH dash by Civic Type-R and Veloster N than the Golf R. ![]() However, its 14.1-inch front and 12.2-inch rear vented disc brakes and Brake Assist with 4-wheel ABS confines its prowess within 151 ft from 70-0 MPH. And the ability to hit a top speed of 155 MPH as an everyday business marks the real sportiness of this sport hatchback. Along with that, one has to have an investment of $995 as its destination fee too, however, no official lease deal has been introduced yet.Ĭasting over 300 horsepower simply translates to a 3.9 seconds 0-60 MPH sprint by the Golf R with a quarter-mile timing of 12.9 seconds. ![]() On top of that, the repairing charges could be somewhere in the range of $2,000 to $2,500 at the least simply for its high-performance consistency and a maintenance expense of nearly $5,000 for the same time period. Even the upgraded suspension with adjustable dampers gets stiffer than the last one with which the cornering stability enhance by a mile.Īs far as the depreciation rate is concerned, the estimate could be $18,000-18,700, resulting in a resale value of almost $25,000 after flooring it for 5 years. And the optional 7-speed DSG automatic transmission on offer brings 15 lb-ft more torque than the standard 6-speed manual as well, thereby, improving its quarter-mile drag. The 2022 Volkswagen Golf R, being the newer platform, has been engineered with an extra 27 horsepower in its 2.0L Turbo I-4 powertrain that ensures better 0-60 MPH performance. Manual shifter took about a thousand miles to flow and not stick, at five thousand miles now almost as good as best ones I've used."Its more sophisticated appearance should only help catch its opponents off guard while attracting buyers who want a fast small car with low-key looks." - Car And Driver Other functions acceptable but few hiccups present, not expected in price range: engine hood rubber dampener flying out of position every fifty miles or so wireless phone charger overheats so much that the phone dies and base of stick shifter heats up mirror not turning down on reverse though setting "on" system not flagging low tire pressure repeatedly and on all wheels (as low as 29 psi from recommended 45). That's what held me back from buying electric, all those i tried had the plasma screen in the middle and touch GUI, did not see it coming that decent German engineering would give me same on 300hp stick driven hot hatch. Graphic touch-based user interface with layered menus for a fast and hard driving mechanical construct where user is in unstable position. ![]() Like a teen on meth playing DJ for their fix. And the fake/virtual display changed with that (different looks asigned to different driving modes). So now you are out of your drive setting. Holding both hands on in standard position but riding hard can make either right thumb base touch the wheel-heating touch-button (doesn't toggle on/off, have to cycle through four settings, same with seat heating, btw), or left thumb base touch and trigger driving mode change. ![]() Then the wheel, omg, purified disgrace of engineering and design. Other half the time your finger lands just so that you touch … something else (add time to get menu back) or en route your hand waved by another sensor, so by time finger reached screen it meets another menu, not one you wanted. And likely even then involving at least ten seconds of distraction from driving itself. Touch screen, full one second latency mixed with rigid suspension means fifty-fifty chance of changing temp, air flow, media source or playlist etc on first try. Good car but user experience destroyed by touch/swipe/wave controls. ![]()
