Reviewed a 2024 Volkswagen Golf R on May 16, 2026
Strong suite of standard features, very powerful, excellent handling, good interior refinement and space. Well priced on the used market and strong resale value. Touch controls are not the best and the infotainment is lackluster. Fantastic all rounder.
