Serving Farmington Hills, MI
The Volkswagen Golf GTI is an athletic hatchback that has been a top pick among drivers in the Farmington Hills area for the last several decades. This hatchback steps confidently into the future in 2022 with the debut of its eighth generation. The next generation boasts a complete redesign and improved performance capabilities. Our Suburban Volkswagen of Farmington Hills sales associates are happy to help you compare all of the unique trim options available.
Performance
In 2021, the Golf GTI comes with a turbo 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine that generates 228 horsepower. In 2022, the powertrain has benefited from fine-tuning, and it now gives you 241 horsepower. Both engines are available with a dual-clutch seven-speed auto transmission or a manual transmission. Notably, the suspension system has been revised in the 2022 model year, and a limited-slip differential is added to the Golf GTI.
Appearance
The Golf GTI is easy on the eyes in 2021 with sleek styling and confident height. The hatchback retains these features in 2022, and it shows off new styling elements. The nose tapers down more dramatically into the thin, bar-style grille. This bar integrates with the LED-accented headlights. The lower front fascia has a five-bulb fog lamp design. The wheels have also been restyled, and they now have a pinwheel-like shape.
Features
The 2022 Golf GTI has a restyled interior that has a more modern look. At the same time, most of the 2021 Golf GTI are identical to those in the 2022 version. Lower trims have front and rear parking sensors, interior ambient lighting, sport seats, a push-button starter, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, an 8.25-inch digital screen for smart device integration, a digital gauge panel, seven speakers for the sound system, a wireless charging pad, and heated side mirrors.
