Volkswagen Releases New Golf GT Sport In Both TSI & TDI
30th September, 2007 | |||
Following the successful launch of the Golf GT TSI in May 2007, Volkswagen has released the exquisite Golf GT Sport model as a result of the Golf GT's success. This new model will be a permanent addition to the Golf range offering new technology, superior road performance and low fuel consumption. Two engine options are available for this dynamic model, with both TSI and TDI technology. Golf GT Sport TSI - The compact 1.4 litre direct-injection engine develops up to 125 kW and has a maximum torque of 240 newton metres in the range from 1,750 to 4,500 rpm thanks to the combination of an exhaust turbocharger with a mechanically driven supercharger. The 1.4 litre engine delivers a power output of 90 kW per litre, representing a peak value for a series production four-cylinder engine. Furthermore, the TSI delivers a torque corresponding to a naturally aspirated engine with a swept volume of approximately 2.3 litres and its fuel consumption is around 20 percent lower. Golf GT Sport 2.0 TDI - Following on with their successful diesel strategy, Volkswagen has introduced their most powerful four-cylinder TDI engine with an output of 125 kW at 4,200 rpm to the Golf GT Sport. Equipped with advanced piezo operated direct injection it offers maximum torque: 350 Newton metres (1,750 to 2,500 rpm) and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 8.2 seconds. The high injection pressure of the four valve engine provides superior road performance, low fuel consumption and particularly smooth running. The Golf GT Sport's resemblance to the Golf GTI is no coincidence: sports suspension, exclusive 17 inch alloy wheels "BBS ClassiXs", 225 tyres, 16 inch brakes, distinctive bumper and radiator grille design, twin tailpipes, sports seats, sports steering wheel. Additional styling features of the Golf GT Sport are: New grille surround in charcoal (formally body colour) and GT Sport badge. Pricing Golf GT Sport TSI six speed manual from $34,990*
