MQB GLI Is A-OK

We haven't yet received an updated Volkswagen Jetta based on the MQB architecture, but maybe we'll be lucky enough to get a Jetta GLI based on this.

The newest edition of the Skoda Octavia vRS features the usual VW 2.0L turbo engine, bumped up to 230 horsepower, along a limited slip differential - sort of.

The GLI has received only a lukewarm reception in the enthusiast press, one that might not be deserved. Either way, the latest MQB GTI is a massive leap forward, and one can only imagine how that would translate to a qualitative improvement over the GLI, which rides on a now-dated architecture. Maybe keep the Skoda chassis tuning as well. We hear it's pretty damn good.
