You should do all the tests you will do next, as in this Golf R, it is different and very simple, and these are the things that everyone wants to see in a short and concise way... I look forward to the continuation.
@@carbittv such as how good is the new all wheel drive? Compared to the old model and what's your feeling towards the car? Just some suggestions as I feel like you have already made this amazing video and it would be interesting to know how you think about it
@@eugene5309 Hi Eugene. Overall the Golf R is a very stable and fast car to drive everyday. The AWD is way better than in the Golf 7 R because it moves into the corners and there is the new driftmode which is a lot of fun - also for unexperienced drivers. The fuel consumption is very low for this kind of machine and it drives like a normal Golf with much torque when not in sport mode. Bad things: The steering feels too modern, the interior is a bit dull and we didn't like that you need a smartphone to fully use the infotainment system. Touchpads on the steering wheel are kind of stupid on a race track btw. Some functions in the infotainment system are kind of cryptic as well. As far as we can say, Volkswagen built an easy and powerful driving machine for allround use which is better than any R before. But it is expensive and not easy to operate.
start shopping for aftermarket illuminated climate control if i were you....and get a strong cable and holder cuz you need carplay everytime you drive.
Boy does it not feel nice to hear the sound of an amazing engine without a soft limiter getting in the way. Also, is there top speed really 270kph? Because you've managed to clock 280kph in the video! XD
@@carbittv it’s actually better . Automann managed 100-200 in 10.8 seconds with summer tires ! Which is an improvement of 0.8 seconds . Doesn’t sound huge but 0.8 seconds means a lot in the car world
@@gurnihal12 The 0.8 seconds are due to an uphill run. Nevertheless the bite point of the clutch is a lot softer than in RS-Models or BMW M. This may result in a bigger spread depending on where you launch it.
@@giovannicioffi2572 No comfort mode as you can clearly see on the gauge. It says "Nürburgring" and "ESC off". Just get along with the fact that also a Golf R isn't fast in any given situation.

Hi Ali. We're glad you like our concept. We will keep it like this. Stay tuned and stay safe. :-)
Vaya pepino el Golf R👍🇪🇸
3:43 passing the cops at 270 km/h. I love Germany for this!
What a precise, informative video. Would keen to hear the driver talk about his experience with the car
Hi Eugene, what do you want to know?

@@carbittv amazing! Please keep up the good work, would love to see you guys test drive the new rs3!
Isso é uma máquina!
Nicely made video mate. I cannot wait to get my R
Congratulations. When will you finally get it?

Jesus Christ this car is fast
Spektakulerr
I mean it looks good and drives very fast, but the hugh problem of the golf 8 in general is the infotainment system and the loss of the buttons.
That's what VW and a lot of others are doing now. We prefer buttons, too.
5 seconds? In Another Channel A Golf 8R Stock did it in 4.09 seconds
Uphill.
The problem with this video is here in the United States people don't know how to drive like they drive in Germany.
Consumption?
Sport: 14 litres, Normal Driving: 9-10 litres. Eco Mode 7,5-8 litres.
Black 👍

The car was fully unlocked. :-)
Bacana. Muito legal esse carro. Muito
جميلة جدا اتمنى لو عندي سيارة مثلها
Some day it will come.
YOu can get a used BMW M2 competition for that money. It's definitely not worth 48K Euro.
🤨🤨
@@carbittv I don't understand what you mean bro
@@nobunaga-oda why ??
Wait thats weird why the 0 - 100 saying that its 5.15 seconds?? Real result is 4.4 seconds....maybe you had bad start
Hi Jirka, it was going slightly uphill at 25 degrees Celsius so it was a bit slower. The official time is 4.7 seconds.
@@carbittv official time is wrong . Everyone has clocked it below 4.5
@@gurnihal12 That's something only Volkswagen can tell. The 0-200 time was precisely what they promised and even uphill.

5.15 🤣 you're doing something wrong. I've seen 4.4 on a stock 8R
Hi David. Can't do nothing wrong with a launch control. It's uphill (also displayed in the video).
@@carbittv uphill and on confort mode
@@giovannicioffi2572 No comfort mode as you can clearly see on the gauge. It says "Nürburgring" and "ESC off". Just get along with the fact that also a Golf R isn't fast in any given situation.
vw is the best choice u can get
sound is teribble with opf and you must pay a lot of money for akrapovic for a better sound kapa
No sound...
A car solely ruined by infotainment system.....
You’ve driven one? Amazing.
Leute ... wem geht es wie mir .... der 7er war um Welten attraktiver ... alleine die 4 Türen *bäh*
Why bother testing if it's uphill?? Waste of time and proves nothing.
