The powertrain is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, driving the front wheels.
Design --------------
The Clubsport model exudes an aggressive personality with its dynamic front-end design, large rear spoiler, and distinctive 19-inch Queenstown alloy wheels. The five-oval semi-circle design of the new wheels adds a striking visual element to the vehicle. Inside, the focus is on sporty essentials, with art velour sport seats and a new touchscreen layout enhancing both comfort and driver engagement.
Technology & Features ----------------------
The 2025 Golf GTI Clubsport is packed with advanced technology and connectivity features.

The vehicle also offers automatic climate control with rear AC vents, enhanced infotainment with advanced internet features, and a boot space of 380 liters. A keyless engine start/stop button adds a touch of convenience.
For the first time, the front of the Golf GTI Clubsport features an illuminated VW logo, adding a modern and distinctive touch to the vehicle's exterior. Moreover, the top-of-the-range GTI model now includes the new IDA voice assistant with ChatGPT integration, further enhancing the driving experience.
