The Volkswagen Up! GTI revived the spirit of the original hot hatch by combining a lightweight chassis with an eager, turbocharged powertrain. Powered by the 1.0-litre TSI EA211 three-cylinder engine, bearing the DKRA engine code, it produces 115 PS and 200 Nm of torque. Paired exclusively with an engaging 6-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive, the Up! GTI delivers a highly involving and momentum-focused driving experience.
