The Golf for parents who are in a hurry.
These figures are more than impressive: 235 kW (320 PS), zero to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds, optionally with a top speed of 270 km/h – the Golf R Variant is the family express from Volkswagen. Its power transmission and running gear also stand for maximum driving dynamics: seven-speed dual clutch gearbox, 4MOTION all-wheel drive with active torque control on the rear axle, R-specific sports running gear, progressive steering, driving dynamics manager and high-performance brake system. The Golf R Variant naturally also has a number of arguments up its sleeve that make it the perfect choice for everyday driving: a luggage compartment with a capacity of up to 1,642 litres and a maximum trailer weight of 1.7 tonnes.

Powerful estate with all-round talent – the new Golf R Estate
The new Golf R Estate is Volkswagen’s most powerful and dynamic Golf Estate so far. Sportiness meets everyday practicality. Top performance meets flexibility, with a spacious interior. The 235-kW (320-PS) Golf R Estate remains true to the tradition of its predecessors: a flexible all-rounder, comfortable leisure and family estate, and a sporty companion with impressive dynamics – thanks in part to the 4MOTION all-wheel drive system, including R Performance torque vectoring with wheel-selective torque control on the rear axle. -
The new Golf R Estate: more power, more driving dynamics, more emotions, more space
With 235 kW (320 PS), the new Golf R Estate is the most powerful and dynamic Golf Estate to date. More power and driving dynamics, numerous innovations, more space and strong emotions: this is what makes the new Golf R Estate better than ever before. The standard 4MOTION all-wheel drive with R Performance Torque Vectoring is powered by a 2.0 TSI engine with a maximum torque of 420 Nm. Power is transmitted via an R-specific 7-speed dual clutch gearbox. It sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds. The top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h. With the optional R Performance package, a top speed of 270 km/h is possible. The package also includes 19-inch wheels and the additional driving modes Special (Nürburgring mode) and Drift (for power slides). A host of assist systems and the latest-generation Infotainment system guarantee even more safety, comfort and convenience.
