An exclusive model is being launched in time for the anniversary: the Golf GTI EDITION 50. With an output of 239 kW (325 PS) and a torque of 420 Nm, it is the most powerful production GTI to date. The compact sports car reaches its top speed at 270 km/h. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.3 seconds. The anniversary model also impresses with outstanding driving dynamics and exclusive equipment details. The Golf GTI EDITION 50 can be

three magic letters “GTI” are naturally a must for the third Golf series, and so the GTI makes its debut at the same time as the VW Golf III is launched in November 1991. The new Golf is 4.02 metres long and, as a GTI, weighs in at 1,035 kilograms. The interior is also enlarged. At the heart of the model initially is a powerful 2.0-litre eight-valve engine with 85 kW (115 PS). The three-series GTI sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.1 seconds. Nevertheless, the subjective driving impression is different, because the 2.0-litre engine is powerful and delivers plenty of torque even at low revs – without losing power at high revs. Sales figures are correspondingly good, but many fans still want the GTI to have even more bite. And Volkswagen responds accordingly. From January 1993, the GTI is once again available with a 16V engine, now with 110 kW (150 PS). As a 16V, the GTI sprints to 100 km/h in 8.3 seconds and reaches speeds of up to 215 km/h on the motorway. The Golf III GTI's equipment is sporty

Maturity Factory code: 1H (A3) Saloon After eight years of production, the Golf II is replaced in 1991. Once again, the previous model is analysed in detail and adapted to the current status quo through targeted further developments. The changes affect the design, accident safety, volume, and quality. The passenger compartment is reinforced, the front side members can be specifically deformed to absorb loads, the doors are intrusion-resistant thanks to transverse struts, and the rear seat backrests are secured against penetrating loads. The package remains essentially the same: the VW Golf III is based on the platform of its predecessor, the wheelbase is identical, and the length (4,020 millimetres) and width (1,695 millimetres) differ only slightly. The design of the Golf II is deliberately refined by Wolfsburg's chief designer Herbert Schäfer. With a wedge-shaped side line and new lighting graphics, the Golf III is significantly more modern and contemporary. To achieve lower fuel consumption

VW Golf II is the result of a careful analysis of its predecessor. This leads to a larger body with improved comfort dimensions and rationalisations in body construction as the basis for increased production profitability. The exterior impresses with its no-frills design, this time designed entirely in Wolfsburg. The emphasised straight lines of its predecessor are now contrasted by a significantly softer-looking vehicle. The high-mounted, compact rear lights are new design features that will also characterise future model generations. The new VW Golf offers much more space: it is now 17 centimetres longer and 5.5 centimetres wider, and the wheelbase has been increased by 7.5 centimetres. More volume and a larger fuel tank (55 litres) add approximately 95 kilograms to the weight of the Golf II. The Golf is the first vehicle in Wolfsburg to be designed for fully automated production in the legendary Hall 54. The VW Golf II is available in the C, CL, and GL trim levels, with the Golf II GTI

round Factory code: 1E/1J In 1993, the second Golf Cabriolet appears, based on the third generation of the saloon – the Golf III Cabriolet. A convertible based on the Golf II never went into series production. Volkswagen opts once again for the roll bar. The gain in rigidity and rollover safety remains undisputed, and systems such as automatic high-speed safety bars had not yet arrived in the open compact class. The roof can be opened and closed electrohydraulically on request and takes barely 20 seconds. A red light at the traffic lights is enough time to switch to sunshine mode. The open roof is lower than its predecessor, and the generational leap is impossible to overlook. The Golf III Cabriolet now stands on its wheels in a much more modern and sturdy manner. While the design of its predecessor was still rooted in the early 1970s, the new model has a whole new set of specifications: the body has to offer significantly more space, e.g., 50 litres more boot space, and the safety standard
