The Volkswagen Golf R, a high-performance version of the beloved Golf GTI, continues to impress with its all-wheel-drive system and raucous performance. While the Golf GTI celebrates its 50th anniversary, the R variant has evolved over decades, from the introduction of the first super-GTI in 1986 to the turbocharged four-cylinder engine used today. The latest 2025 model is priced at $47,100 but remains competitive considering inflation compared to previous iterations. Despite its higher price for a hatchback, the Golf R promises a thrilling driving experience that exceeds expectations.
For model year 2025, the base Golf R is now $47,100, which, considering inflation, is cheaper than the Mk7 tested in 2016.
VW has been making hot Golfs for as long as I’ve been on the planet-next year will be the GTI’s 50th anniversary.
