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).
