Volkswagen is working on a "powerful" version of its future electric hatchback Golf. This popular model from the German brand is expected to transition to full electric power in its ninth generation, while still retaining the GTI badge.
Engineers and marketing specialists are brainstorming ways to make the car resemble one with an internal combustion engine. Options such as engine sound imitation and changes to the transmission are being considered.
Some information has already emerged about the first prototypes that are currently undergoing testing.
According to insider estimates, the Golf 9 is expected to be presented in 2028 or 2029. The car will be built on the latest SSP platform developed in collaboration with Rivian engineers.
The "powerful" version under the GTI index may be released in 2030 and could potentially use variable torque distribution technology between the wheels. In this way, Volkswagen engineers aim to preserve the DNA characteristic of previous models.
Additionally, the torque control in the new electric Golf GTI may be implemented not solely through software but by incorporating mechanical elements.
For example, in the ID.2 GTI sports hatchback, Volkswagen plans to use a mechanically locked differential with electronic control. This model is expected to be presented at the end of 2026 and go on sale in 2027.
However, for now, this information is not official. There are still disagreements between Volkswagen management and engineers regarding these technical issues. The company still has time to make a final decision, as the presentation of the electric Golf GTI is expected to take place in about five years.
