The car manufacturer announced that the anniversary hatchback with the prefix Edition 50 overcame the 20.8-kilometer version of the highway for 7: 46’13. It is curious that the premiere of the special Volkswagen Golf GTI will take place only on June 20 in front of the “24 hours of Nürburgring” race, so there are few technical details. For the Bridgestone, a hot hatch was shoeing in the half-wings, reconfigured a suspension and changed the wheels.
The Volkswagen Golf GTI Edition 50 time turned out to be better than the Golf R 20 Years (7: 47’31) in 2020, and then the result was shown on a “short” version of the highway and on an all -wheel drive car! However, in fairness, for the sake of the absolute record of front -wheel drive cars, it was not possible to reach: in 2023, the Honda Civic Type R showed 7: 44’88.

The Volkswagen factory pilot Benny Loyhter complained to Autocar that the race took place in non -suitable conditions. I had to show the time under the curtain of the session after several hours of rain, the track was not completely dry, and in some turns there was water. It can be expected that the Golf GTI Edition 50 will nevertheless go to Nurgurging again.
Probably, the anniversary special version will receive a forced 2.0-liter turbo engine with a capacity of about 320 horsepower. Lightened discs, a re -calibrated suspension and half -wry from the “record” Golf GTI will become available as a Performance package on all hatchbacks of Edition 50, and they did not make any additional improvements for arrival.
