Performance-wise, the GTI Clubsport is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol TSI engine mated to a seven-speed direct-shift gearbox (DSG). This setup propels the car from 0 to 62 mph in just 5.6 seconds, with a top speed of 155 mph (where legal of course). The car's dynamic handling is enhanced by progressive steering and an advanced suspension setup.

With a power output of 333 PS, 13 PS more than previous versions, these models, along with the Black Edition, are among the most potent production vehicles Volkswagen offers. The 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine channels this power through a seven-speed DSG transmission and 4MOTION all-wheel drive system with R-Performance Torque Vectoring. The standard top speed of 155 mph can be elevated to 167 mph with the optional R-Performance package.

The user interface has been significantly improved with new graphics and a reorganised menu structure.
