[Dr_-_PiKaChU]

 

We know a little more about the new Volkswagen Golf R , which entered dealerships at the start of the year. A few months after being officially revealed, the most radical version of the Wolfburg compact now unveils its entire price list. It will then take no less than 50,260 € to offer you a copy of the German sportswoman, a price for the lower, since this one is then 7,000 more expensive than the previous generation, then displayed at 41,900 €. A difference which was explained in particular by the endowment in terms of equipment for a rich country on this new version. It will nevertheless also be necessary to reckon with a penalty of between 4 818 and 8 671 € according to the new scale, for CO2 emissions announced between 177 and 188 g / km depending on the options chosen. Suffice to say that this is a big budget, but there is no doubt that enthusiasts will answer the call once again, while thermal sports compacts are increasingly rare, Peugeot having said au- revisit its 308 GTi , while Renault consider phasing out its Mégane RS in the coming years.

 

Already available to order, the new Volkswagen Golf R displays a rather generous standard endowment, including, among other things, semi-autonomous driving, Matrix LED lights , hands-free access and starting as well as the reversing camera and the 10 inch touch screen. A nice list of equipment, which can obviously be supplemented by a wide choice of options. Among them is the Akrapovic exhaust(€ 3,990), controlled depreciation (€ 910) or the R-Performance pack (€ 2,210), among others. The latter then incorporates 19-inch rims fitted with wider tires and protected by anti-theft nuts, progressive steering, as well as an increase in maximum speed, which then goes to 270 km / h. Not necessarily essential, but which can be interesting if you like to go tickle the accelerator pedal on the Autobahn. Finally, it should be noted that two shades are offered in addition, namely Lapiz blue and Intense black, both billed at € 710. Visit the online configurator to discover all the available options!
