Volkswagen to show the fastest Golf GTI

May 18, 2013 in New Cars

Volkswagen will show a new Golf GTI concept car at the 2013 Wörthersee show at this month, and it previews a forthcoming high-performance alternative of the world’s most iconic hot produce. It had a middle mounted twin turbo 6.0-litre W12 engine out of a Bentley, and with 641bhp and 553lb ft it could hit 62mph in 3.7 seconds and max out at 203mph.

It could be an extreme version built to celebrate 40 years of the Golf GTI the original Mk1 GTI debuted at the 1975 Frankfurt motor show but as the Golf GTI has always remained a well curved hot produce, the concept may actually tease the Edition 40 GTI. This would be a more slight high concert Golf GTI, following in the footsteps of the Edition 30 versions of the Mk5 GTI and recent Edition 35 variant of the Mk6 GTI.

A carbon fiber roof was also originally mooted for the Mk7 GTI, but so far Volkswagen hasn’t found a way to cost effectively make it part of the manufacture process. A carbonfibre roof would save about 8-9kg in weight.Depending on how extreme the GTI concept car is it could feature wide ranging weight saving measures akin to those adopted by the Audi TT Ultra Quattro show car that will also debut Worthersee.

Maruti Suzuki presently uses the 1.3-litre Fiat Multi jet turbocharged diesel mill to power the Swift, Dzire, Ritz and SX4 oil burners. They had signed a deal with the Italian automaker to receive a provide one-lakh mills beginning from 2012.

Since diesel engine vehicles make up a majority of MSIl’s current sales, it is likely that the company does not want to depend on an outside source in the long run for the engines. With Fiat implementing large scale growth plans for its Indian operations, the need for a company like MSIL to have its own engine supply has become all the more imperative. These new engines as well as Maruti’s future engine plant in Gujarat seems to be their step in extensive term sustainability.
