See what invigorating performance does to you
That moment when your heart is in your mouth – that’s the Golf R Wagon feeling.
Let thrill course through you
The Golf R Wagon’s 2.0-litre TSI turbocharged engine is the most powerful ever put in a Golf. An impressive 235kW of power and 420Nm of torque can launch the Golf R Wagon from 0–100km/h in just 4.9 seconds.
Power through corners
All-wheel-drive 4MOTION with R-Performance Torque Vectoring makes the Golf R Wagon feel like its driving on rails. High-speed cornering speeds are made possible by distributing engine output not just between the front and rear axles, but also variably between the two rear wheels for electrifying grip and stability.
Hold nothing back with exclusive driving profiles
Six available driving profiles provide you with ultimate control of the Golf R Wagon’s ride and handling characteristics. Your senses will come alive when you press the ‘R’ logo on the steering wheel to activate ‘Race’ mode. Take exhilaration to the next level when you choose exclusive R Performance ‘Drift’ and ‘Special’ modes. ‘Drift’ modifies the vehicle for pulsating drifting capability away from public roads and ‘Special’ tunes it for racing conditions such as on the Nürburgring-Nordschleife.
