If you own one you would not complain, had the mk8 for a couple of years you get used to it and its fine, this issue is over exaggerated IMO at least lol
@@eek8605 to each their own, I drove one for a while and just looking at all that touch screen shit made me angry. Not to mention changing the climate or anything else while driving.
Never released on the standard wheels so don’t get too excited because most of the UK dealer stock will be on 18s which probably will be same as those terrible ones on Mk8 (which are still an option on base GTI in Germany)
Should take out the side logs, will be a much cleaner look.. Also, the large screen infotainment looks terrible. Still prefer the smaller streamlined one in mine.
Couple questions, what turbo is it in this new clubsport, still is38 or something else? What Will the new forged wheels lock like and what inch? Akropovich exhaust that extra or standard? When will this be available 2024 or 2025?
Haven't been a massive fan of the recent Golf models, but this particular example looks really great! Almost perfect, aside from the lack of a red stripe on the front grill.
i have never been a golf fan, but man, this FL makes it great looking.... i dont even mind tablet and no physical HVAC... dealbreaker gloss black touch buttons on the steering wheel are gone, this new matte real buttons are superior... also i would choose microfiber seats, the best (looking) option... i just wish a r-line awd will come soon. sadly its not available for the strongest 2.0tsi version on my market... also no manual is sad. :(
It's obviously to integrate more of the cars functions into the screen, which no one wants, I really wished car companies listened more to the car enthusiasts instead of the dumb mindless ev drivers that want electric cars with every aspect of the car integrated into a gazillion inch screen cuz that's sadly where things are moving to at the moment
For me I feel they cover to much windscreen view even though they don’t. It doesn’t make sense but at the same time it does. Just give us a built in one like the mk7.5 golf’s clean tidy dash & entertainment system. I hate them on the top bolted on, it’s too much clutter.
Absolutely love it!!👌🏻👍🏻 But like you I'm not a fan of the gloss black around the dash & centre console shows up scratches & general dust & grime!!😬🙄 But apart from that Absolutely awesome great little video Sir as always!!👌🏻👍🏻
Great review,one of the best I’ve seen. So wish I hadn’t bought a BMW 1 series M135I X drive 6 months ago,love to see how much this gets marketed for in the U.K. as I’d like to get shot of my BMW if I could and go back to a club sport. It’s a great looking car.
Love the return of the Alfa-inspired wheels, and that Satin white paint finish is beautiful!! Also, THANK YOU, VW, for returning 'normal' buttons back into the interior!!!
Am surprised they didn't aim to reteofit the control dial from the tiguan into the golf - also curious about sound dampening and noise insulation on this model. The 7.5 seemed to be quieter than the 8.
Well done Thomas a great review as ever and I am pleased to see VW work hard to fix many issues of the mk8 and I am sure it will be a much better car but why go back to a radar for the front assist etc in the lower grille I prefer the mk8 arrangement with it behind the badge
I've got a standard stock mk8 golf r and took it to the autobahn recently and got 258kmh out of it and it felt like it would keep going. I thought they're limited to 155mph??
Does it have W rated tyres? Later Mk8 Golf R’s switched from Y or Z to W and the Performance Pack limiter went from 174 to 167mph. I assume that was a cost saving exercise to allow for slightly cheaper tyres.
I think GTI still had 17" available a little while ago, which is the smallest size to fit over the brakes. According to Jonathon Benson's testing (on a Mk7 GTI), the 17" tyres were fastest in the wet (since more sidewall = more deflection, generates more grip on wet tarmac) and the 19" were fastest in the dry (presumably because the sidewalls and tread are better supported under lateral load, even despite the greater rotational inertia). 17" will certainly give the best ride.
@@OBELISK3210 Yep, 18" was a balance in-between! It's on RUclips under the "Tyre Reviews" channel if you want to check it out. Jonathon Benson is a bit of tyre guru, I don't think there is much he doesn't know about tyres.

Car reviewers spend a lot of time discussing the the back seats but never talk about the drivers seat. Seats appear to be getting smaller/less supportive especially for taller drivers (BMW). Bottom cushion in a lot of cars is very short (Toyota/Lexus) and I think you should discuss this or even measure the seat bottom cushions to encourage manufactures to make better seats.
@@autogefuehl Thank you. Discussing the available seat options is good, but it doesn’t tell the viewer anything new. I’m asking that you expand your reviews to cover the drivers seat in more detail- something no other journalist does even though it is the part of the car the driver interacts with the most.
No power increase... I'm not so sure its quite worth the thousands in difference that this will cost compared to the regular GTI, especially in the UK where the Clubsport will definitely start above the £40,000 luxury car band, the power difference isn't big enough - IMO, the main selling point of the CS. I'd take a regular GTI with a few thousand in options instead.
Fantastic. If only VW were actually selling these. Can’t order/build, can just watch videos like this with the usual folks rocking them and telling you how ace they are followed by the obligatory “yeah picking mine up on Wednesday mate” or “This is my second one this month as I changed my mind on the wheel nut configuration” replies👍😝
Why can't they put the ACC behind the emblem like they used to? I think the emblem lighting up isn't worth risking the adapter being damaged through rock chips. The side badges being gone takes away from its looks.
The interior was already a joke with all that glossy black plastic showing every fingerprint and scratch like a badge of honor. But the exterior? That’s a whole new level of masochism. It’s as if they thought, “Our customers need more despair in their lives. Who needs hobbies or happiness when you can have the soul-crushing burden of maintaining a shiny, impractical facade?”
I have a 22 plate Golf and won’t get another. The heating controls in the touchscreen border on ridiculous and dangerous, at night the heating controls don’t illuminate so you need to go through another menu. The lane assist drives you into pot holes and huge puddles, you can’t turn it off permanently so need to remember on every journey. The worst design I’ve ever come across, I hate it.
The new gli not getting this infotainment is really a kick in the face , already haven’t given it the hp difference now the gti gets more power and even more different

VW, bring back manual climate and media consols please... We want physical buttons and knobs to operate our cars besides the touch screen.
Not going to happen with everything going Electric. It is what it is get over it🙄
That big ass screen is so garbage. 7.5 golf is goat.
If you own one you would not complain, had the mk8 for a couple of years you get used to it and its fine, this issue is over exaggerated IMO at least lol
I’ve set mine to 21,5 about 3 years ago and never touched it since.
@@eek8605 to each their own, I drove one for a while and just looking at all that touch screen shit made me angry. Not to mention changing the climate or anything else while driving.
Looks quite amazing, the true GTI. Well done VW!
Would love it if the clubsport finally came to the US
Yea idk why they won't bring it too the States.
Will keep my Original GTI Clubsport MK7 40 Year Anniversary! 370 hp Stage 1 & Custom Exhaust, IE carbon intake etc! 👍
i have a 2022 golf r manual and it looks like they took everything from the golf r and gave it to the 2025 golf gti. great review.
This is the new S3
Not what Audi have made with their full plastic interior
Welldone VW
This is literally all plastic aswell?
@@gullible119 Way less piano black inside the Golf than the Audi
@@SudSale31only the center console.. audi also has real buttons so depends on what you prefer
That was exact reason, why I choose Golf instead of Audi a3
The s3 looks way much better
Never released on the standard wheels so don’t get too excited because most of the UK dealer stock will be on 18s which probably will be same as those terrible ones on Mk8 (which are still an option on base GTI in Germany)
That door logo is awful!!!
Should take out the side logs, will be a much cleaner look.. Also, the large screen infotainment looks terrible. Still prefer the smaller streamlined one in mine.
And the humongous screen look so out of place ... Would be perfect for something like Amarok not a tiny hatch like Golf
It's right where I typically get stains from water dripping from the rear view mirror hinges.
Sensational!! It has to be sold in Brazil too!
Will you do a review on the updated 2024 Mazda MX-5?
thank god they brought back physical buttons on the steering wheel. that pre-facelift model was a pain in the ass in that regard.
Couple questions, what turbo is it in this new clubsport, still is38 or something else? What Will the new forged wheels lock like and what inch? Akropovich exhaust that extra or standard? When will this be available 2024 or 2025?
Haven't been a massive fan of the recent Golf models, but this particular example looks really great! Almost perfect, aside from the lack of a red stripe on the front grill.
So much gloss black everywhere to get scratched. Great review!

Ok but can we stop at some sweet spot with that screens? 13 inch is way too big, why would you need such big screen and for what?
I agree they ruin it
It's obviously to integrate more of the cars functions into the screen, which no one wants, I really wished car companies listened more to the car enthusiasts instead of the dumb mindless ev drivers that want electric cars with every aspect of the car integrated into a gazillion inch screen cuz that's sadly where things are moving to at the moment
i dont mind the size, i mind where its located, i would love for it to be integrated in the middle-dashboard and not stick out over the dash
Massive Google maps yo 😂

Cheers m8!
Great review as always 😊
thanks m8 !
I just got my GLI 8 months ago 😭 I still prefer having the rear leg room for the kiddo but this one is sooooo nice.
Glad to see them finally fixing lots of the problems with mk8. That illuminated badge is so tacky though.
They stuck on an iPad on the dash. *Real classy* 🤮
Mk8 is OK when you are used to it. I went from mk7 gti to mk8 clubsport, love it although took a few weeks to get used to it
Pulsing Start button is not a new feature, it can be coded easily with OBD11 also in older models across the VAG group vehicles.
A GTi without the red stripe is sacrilege 😮
Not really
Some people have funny taste so they prefer no red accents🤦
Black package with red stripe option would look great
you can choose between white or red...
So true
Love the return of the Alfa-inspired wheels, and that Satin white paint finish is beautiful!! Also, THANK YOU, VW, for returning 'normal' buttons back into the interior!!!
Am surprised they didn't aim to reteofit the control dial from the tiguan into the golf - also curious about sound dampening and noise insulation on this model. The 7.5 seemed to be quieter than the 8.
If they gave it the interior from 2019 it would be the best Golf of all time, and an aptly high final peak to the petrol GTI.
Will we get the club sport in the US?
At the end of the video he said it won’t be in the US.
This looks amazing. Very sad it wont be coming to America. 😢
Yep. Think I’ll have one
Well done Thomas a great review as ever and I am pleased to see VW work hard to fix many issues of the mk8 and I am sure it will be a much better car but why go back to a radar for the front assist etc in the lower grille I prefer the mk8 arrangement with it behind the badge

I've got a standard stock mk8 golf r and took it to the autobahn recently and got 258kmh out of it and it felt like it would keep going. I thought they're limited to 155mph??
So they say, I have had 267kmh out of my Arteon R, UK car and it still wanted to go except for the limiter.
Sensacional!! Tem que ser vendido no Brasil também!
500 mil painhos... Capado 😅
A very germanic, super clean design. One of the best looking Golfs ever made.
The centre screen looks like an aftermarket product.
think the front grille LED emblem will be able to be retro fitted into the current models?
Rims are great 👍👍
When is it going to be release to the USA?
They fixed the mk8 design big time.
They really did. I skipped the MK8 after having a MK7 and MK7.5. I think it's time to jump back in with the MK8.5
💯
Looking good!
Please review the new Golf GTE.
IT'S GORGEOUS !!! 🤩😍
Really hope they bring microfiber or cloth to the US. They look nicer and are also comfortable.
Does it have W rated tyres? Later Mk8 Golf R’s switched from Y or Z to W and the Performance Pack limiter went from 174 to 167mph. I assume that was a cost saving exercise to allow for slightly cheaper tyres.
i need those taillights for my 24 Golf R here in us lol and can the new infotainment system be retrofitted? lol
The best looking Golf ever 👌
Then u have not seen mk7 clubsport 😂😂😂 lmao
I wish most EVERY brand would quit with this rubber band tires trend. Give us our sidewall back.
He said the 19 inch is optional, you can get 18 inch which is perfectly reasonable for a performance car.
Civic Type R, the best performing hot hatch, comes stock with 19in wheels.
I think GTI still had 17" available a little while ago, which is the smallest size to fit over the brakes. According to Jonathon Benson's testing (on a Mk7 GTI), the 17" tyres were fastest in the wet (since more sidewall = more deflection, generates more grip on wet tarmac) and the 19" were fastest in the dry (presumably because the sidewalls and tread are better supported under lateral load, even despite the greater rotational inertia). 17" will certainly give the best ride.
@@TassieLorenzoI guess 18 inch is a balance inbetween the both?!

Which is more important a sub or a spare wheel?
exhaust police approved!

When will the R be shown?
In a couple of weeks
@@autogefuehl legend thanks
Now this looks much more agressive and nice.
Love the Alfa Romeo wheels, sick
Finally Golf is back and looks absolutely perfect. The old design was sad and boring. Now we have a Golf as it should be. Yes vw you still got it!😊
I love a good open hole design 😁
I hope there is a GTD variant

For sure i m the one who spends most time on that
I love it!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Can we please have it in manual? Kind regards, Australia.
Nope, i have a manual Gti clubsport and the manual sucks.
@billx4266 dam I have a manual R32 and can't think what I could replace it with. The shift action is a bit meh, but the gearbox itself is decent.
why does it have an Alfa wheels ???
Is their mk6Denver style rims design
No power increase... I'm not so sure its quite worth the thousands in difference that this will cost compared to the regular GTI, especially in the UK where the Clubsport will definitely start above the £40,000 luxury car band, the power difference isn't big enough - IMO, the main selling point of the CS.

You see one vw interior, you seen them all.
Should by now be at least a mild hybrid to give decent stop start, etc. Otherwise love it.

It sucks that we don't get these fun cars in the US............. ARGH!
Price?
How is the same as Mk8 300 PS & 400 nm now ‘almost a Golf R’. Oh yeah, the gloss black 😂😂😂
Because it’s less powerful but also lighter, so the power to weight ratio is pretty much identical
Why can't they put the ACC behind the emblem like they used to? I think the emblem lighting up isn't worth risking the adapter being damaged through rock chips.
The side badges being gone takes away from its looks.
Definitely do NOT take a drink everytime he says 'also'. 😆
Why? Why no electric tailgate?
Because it's quite pointless, tell me one reason why you would need a electric tailgate
i could see removing the “GTI” from the door. nice wheels like alfa Gulia….is that his real accent or special hire for the press release ?

Fuel is very expensive.
@@DjorjdeISTINA are you on drugs 🤔🙄
