GTI feelings no longer? The Eighth Generation Re-evolution of Golf 8 GTI

Easy Car Original Speaking of "small steel cannon", the name of Volkswagen Golf GTI should be the easiest to mention. At the moment of electric intelligence, the eighth generation golf has also become "digital", and the GTI model, which has always been the master of ordinary golf, has naturally undergone many changes outside sports. Some people say that the eighth generation golf GTI is likely to make its final appearance in the fuel age ... but I beg to differ. After all, since the birth of the first generation golf GTI in 1976, golf GTI has become the dream cars of many fans for 45 years with its affordable price and excellent performance.

So today, let's talk about China's memories of the "small steel gun" golf GTI, and see how the latest generation of golf GTI has changed and remained unchanged.

China's story from the fifth generation car.

A generation of golf, born from the original intention of taking over the Beatles, added more sports suits under the "conspiracy" of R&D engineers such as alfons Lovenberg, and 500 new cars were sold out in Frankfurt 1975. Quite unexpectedly, the public saw this situation and quickly increased production capacity. As a result, a legend belonging to golf GTI quietly opened.

After the fifth-generation golf GTI was imported to China for the first time, the sixth-generation golf GTI was made in China, and the continuation of the seventh-generation models, golf GTI has been very familiar to domestic fans. This is a powerful small steel cannon, which has both sports and food shopping.

The revival of the eighth generation GTI of golf is coming.

As the main control model of the latest golf GTI, the eighth generation of new digital golf finally made golf get rid of the "insipid" of the previous generation, making the flat front of the new GTI sharper, the upper grille closed, and the red and black decorative strips became slimmer like the traditional design of golf GTI.

The popular slogan "Light is new chrome plating" also appeared on the eighth generation GTI. The penetrating headlight belt, the X-shaped LED fog lamp group below and the bright LED headlights are all part of IQ. Lighting system.

Compared with the honeycomb grille shape that is not prominent in the seventh generation model, the exaggerated honeycomb grille shape on the front face of the new GTI is the biggest difference between the front nameplate of GTI and the ordinary height 8. Compared with the horizontal air intake grille with an ordinary height of 8, the honeycomb air intake grille cooperates with the "X" type LED fog lamps on both sides, and vows to make the sports performance pedigree public, which is full of fighting style against the exclusive elements of GTI.

On the side of the car body, the overall line is basically the same as that of the ordinary version, but the difference is that the new Tomahawk wheels with 7 GTI and high-performance version are replaced, and 225 40/R 18 tires are standard, and the calipers are still painted in red. In addition, the body height is 8mm lower than the normal version, and the overall visual center of gravity is lower.

The rear of the vehicle is also a design idea with distinctive personality and outstanding performance. Based on Volkswagen's latest design style, the red GTI letters with unique identity have been transferred under the logo, and with the 380 TSI on the right, the people with letters are full of performance.

Bilateral tailpipes are naturally a classic continuation of the development of GTI models in previous dynasties. Scorpio exhaust is not only cool in shape, but also equipped with the original exhaust sound, which has a good audio-visual effect.

Entering the cockpit, GTI's tables and chairs not only continue to inherit the classic Scottish plaid style, but also change the integrated backrest sports seat to make the sports performance more prominent. In addition, the fabric seat avoids temperature embarrassment, supports seat heating and 12 electric adjustment, which makes people enjoy driving pleasure of GTI more comfortably and safely.

The three-spoke sports steering wheel with heating function adopts touch design, the "GTI" nameplate and real stitching below show identity, and the silver trim is decorated with red; The shift lever in the interior is still the same as the normal version, and the start button in front will also have the effect of pulse light, just like Porsche 9 1 1. The metal pedal at the foot, like the red element of GTI, shows a unique identity and a sense of detail.

Zhongkong also continued the dual-screen style of eight generations of digital golf. The LCD instrument has a huge honeycomb tachometer and a turbine pressure gauge set exclusively by GTI, which not only allows the driver to grasp the car condition more intuitively, but also exudes GTI's exclusive sports performance.

In addition, such as human-computer interaction and multi-screen interaction, L2+ driving assistance can be realized, making daily traffic easier.

On the power unit that fans are most concerned about, the new GTI is still the third generation 2.0T turbocharged engine of EA888, with the maximum power 162Kw(220Ps), the maximum torque of 350n·m, the acceleration of 0- 100km/h of 7. 1s and the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100km. Although the evo4 engine is not installed synchronously, the characteristics of evo4 are applied to the nozzle pressure, Miller cycle and other technologies of the third generation engine.

The transmission part matches the 7-speed wet dual clutch code DQ38 1. DQ38 1 is a DQ380 product with optimized bearings and gears, which can withstand the ultimate torque of 420n·m, and even provide the factory ejection mode of 4000 rpm for the first time.

At the same time, in order to pursue the handling performance, the new GTI synchronizes the overseas version of the steering system with variable steering ratio, and the steering circle width is only 2. 1, which is more optimized than the previous generation's 2.7, which is more stable when turning slightly and more flexible when turning sharply. This system also appears in golf R.

In the chassis control part, the attribute point of 8 GTI height is added with full marks, and it is equipped with DCC 2.0 dynamic adaptive chassis system with adjustable 15 level and iBooster intelligent power assist system to provide better chassis dynamics and more agile braking performance.

For this reason, GTI Club Sport adopts a brand-new aluminum subframe and the latest MK 100 ESP system with smaller and lighter structure, supplemented by XDS dynamic electronic differential and RKA indirect tire pressure monitoring system, and combined with damping springs to enhance rigidity and optimized and upgraded load-bearing components, the combination of these powerful hardware makes the performance in dynamic cornering more active and the driving more stable.

Summary: The emergence of a new generation of high -8 GTI has made my best-looking high -6 GTI an opponent, with an overall upgrade in configuration, the same steering gear as the high -R model, and optimized chassis adjustment. Although not all overseas accessories have been used, considering the domestic price, wouldn't it be nice to buy a brand-new GTI with such modern functions at a price of 230 thousand?
