Volkswagen unveils pricing and offers for the refreshed 2025 Golf GTI and Golf R

Volkswagen of America announced the offer structure for its refreshed 2025 Golf GTI and Golf R. Building on the success of the eighth-generation models, the 2025 GTI and R offer a compelling blend of performance, technology, and driver engagement. The 2025 Golf GTI will be offered in three trims: S, SE and Autobahn. In addition to the 2025 Golf R, a new Golf R Black Edition joins the lineup.

The 2025 Golf GTI continues to deliver the driving experience customers expect, but with a fresh look and enhanced technology. Exterior changes include new headlights and front bumper, an illuminated logo, and a standard lightbar. Two new colors, Alpine Silver Metallic and Slate Blue Metallic, join the palette, complemented by a bold new 19-inch aluminum-alloy wheel design.

The interior gets a significant upgrade, featuring a new, freestanding 12.9-inch touchscreen. This system boasts the latest operating system, shared with the ID. Buzz and 2024 ID.4, offering faster software and a more intuitive layout. Additionally, hard buttons replace the haptic switchgear on the steering wheel for improved functionality.

The 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder TSI® engine produces 241 horsepower and is now mated only with a 7-speed DSG® dual-clutch automatic transmission.

Standard and available features are improved across all trim levels, including standard navigation, Dynamic Road Sign Display, and wireless App-Connect on the base S trim. IQ.DRIVE driver assistance technology remains standard across the board, consisting of Travel Assist (semi-automated driving assistance); Front Assist (Forward Collision Warning and Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Monitoring); Active Side Assist (Blind Spot Monitor); Rear Traffic Alert; Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Stop and Go; Lane Assist (Lane Keeping System); and Emergency Assist (semi-automated vehicle assistance in a medical emergency).

The 2025 Golf R also receives a refresh. Thanks to a 13 horsepower increase, the Golf R is now the most powerful ever Golf model, with 328 hp on tap. The 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic is the sole transmission option. Visually striking exterior updates include new headlights and front bumper, an illuminated front logo, and a standard lightbar.

Like the GTI, the R’s interior boasts a new, freestanding 12.9-inch touchscreen with the latest operating system. Additionally, a new Golf R Black Edition joins the lineup, featuring blacked-out detailing, accents, wheels, brake calipers, and carbonfiber decor.

For purists, the Euro Style Package offers fabric seats, sunroof delete, and an Akrapovič titanium exhaust for enhanced engine acoustics. New 19-inch forged alloy wheels are 20% lighter than the previous Golf R wheels, further enhancing handling and performance.

IQ.DRIVE driver assistance technology is standard on all Golf R models, now featuring Park Assist Plus in addition to the previously available systems.

Pricing and availability for the 2025 Golf GTI and Golf R will be announced closer to launch.
