MODEL HISTORY
Discover the Volkswagen Golf R Mk7.5 — the refined evolution of VW’s legendary hot hatch. Produced between 2017 and 2020, the Mk7.5 builds on the already potent Mk7 with a sharper design, smarter tech, and even more thrilling performance. Under the bonnet lies a 2.0L turbocharged EA888 engine delivering up to 310 PS (later adjusted slightly due to emissions regulations), paired with Volkswagen’s renowned 4MOTION all-wheel drive system for superb traction in all conditions. With the option of a slick 6-speed manual or a new-for-this-generation 7-speed DSG automatic, it rockets from 0–100 km/h in as little as 4.6 seconds.
This facelift brought more than just speed — updated styling includes sleek LED headlights and taillights, redesigned bumpers, and an available 9.2” Discover Pro infotainment system with gesture control. Inside, drivers are treated to the Volkswagen Digital Cockpit, blending cutting-edge technology with everyday usability.
