The 2015 Volkswagen GTI DSG Automatic



According to Car and Driver, the 2015 Volkswagen GTI DSG Automatic is the quickest GTI to date. This seventh-generation Golf was put to the test when Car and Driver strapped their equipment to the GTI Autobahn model and started driving.

“The GTI has been a sweet handler throughout much of its four-decade history. And particularly now that the hatch is built around MQB bones, we always marvel at how VW has utterly neutralized the car’s 61/39-percent weight distribution and allowed so much feel into the steering while simultaneously quelling torque steer. We had particularly high expectations of this model, as it’s equipped with the $800 Dynamic Chassis Control option. While its 0.91-g skidpad figure is more than respectable, it is no better than either of the non-DCC-equipped 2015 GTIs we’ve tested—our long-termer even managed 0.93 g of lateral grip.”

Car and Driver also tested the GTI on a longer trip from Los Angeles to San Fransisco and back. Read more about that trip here and don’t forget to check out Bill Jacobs VW’s Golf inventory!
