Volkswagen Golf GTI Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2017–2019)

Volkswagen Golf GTI Engines and Transmissions

You get a Volkswagen Golf GTI engine that is a 2.0-liter gasoline unit with a front-wheel-drive drivetrain. Selected examples include the 2.0 MT manual on Hatchback 5-door and Hatchback 3-door bodies, plus a 2.0L DSG that pairs the same powertrain with a robotic transmission on the five-door.

Volkswagen Golf GTI Trims and Equipment

Volkswagen Golf GTI trim levels sit on top of the technical version you choose rather than replacing it. On the 2.0L DSG Hatchback 5-door, equipment is grouped under the GTi name, so cabin features and extras can vary while the gasoline robotic front-wheel-drive layout stays the same.
