2025 VW Golf R Wagon coming soon

Volkswagen has announced that the hatchback and Wagon versions of the recently introduced Golf R are ready for official presentation and production. The teaser was published on the Instagram profile “volkswagen_r” and shows both versions in the blue camouflage that we also saw on the Golf R.

The hatchback comes with several visual changes compared to the R model, such as redesigned LED headlights and taillights, as well as redesigned bumpers. The interior will also be upgraded with a new 12.9-inch screen infotainment system, illuminated sliders and buttons on the steering wheel, as is the case with other updated versions of the Golf. The Golf R Variant will also undergo some changes, and will only be available in Europe and the UK.

When it comes to the powertrain, VW has not yet published technical specifications. The current Golf R is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-L TSI four-cylinder engine with 320 hp (239 kW), respectively 333 hp (248 kW) in the “20 Years” and “333” special versions. It remains to be seen whether the redesigned version will get a bit more power and come closer to its competitors. The engine will be mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

VW Golf Delta4x4

In 1974, Volkswagen introduced the first generation of a compact small family car, the VW Golf. With FWD, the car became very popular among Volkswagen fans, and it took 11 years for the all-wheel drive version to hit the market. In 1989, VW presented the Golf Country version, intended for adventurers, and now Delta4x4, which specializes in off-road cars, wants to create a modern version based on the current Golf R.

The car is in the concept stage, but the company planned to produce a limited number of cars. If there is enough customer interest, we can expect 25 conversions that will cost 35,000 euros, that is, more than the price of the Golf R-Line, which costs 33,335 euros in Germany. The idea is to raise the Golf R by 80 mm and place it on 18-inch wheels with all-terrain tires. The aftermarket package also includes roof racks, as well as an additional five hood-mounted PIAA lights. The conversion of one car into an off-road version will take six to nine months.

VW Golf R is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four-cylinder with 315 hp (232 kW) and 310 lb-ft (420 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to all wheels via a six-speed manual or seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. It reaches 60 mph in 3.9 seconds (seven-speed dual-clutch automatic) and 4.9 seconds (six-speed manual), with a limited top speed of 155 mph (250).
