The all-wheel drive 2014 Golf R packs 290 hp and 280 ft-lb of torque, shoves it down your choice of either a six speed manual or six speed dual-clutch transmission, and hauls the compact hot hatch to sixty in 4.9 seconds. That's about a second quicker to sixty than the outgoing Golf R…
In addition to the substantially beefed up power, the Golf R gains a quick ratio steering rack (2.1 turns lock-to-lock, nice), full-off stability control mode, as well as an 0.2 inch drop in ride height from the standard GTi. All of this can be dialed back from 11 for daily use, with four drive modes: comfort, normal, individual and race to adjust the car's attitude towards your own.
