Confirmed: the Volkswagen Golf R Unlimited will keep the same power but with a great deal of exclusivity, from 53,900 euros

The exclusivity of special editions is reflected not only in the mechanical side but also in the styling or equipment. Volkswagen has done the same with one of its star models, the Golf, since its R variant has been presented as the ideal candidate for a edition that is not only limited but also very exclusive. Yesterday we told you how the German brand had whetted our appetite on its social media, but today Volkswagen has confirmed every single detail of this new Golf R edition called Unlimited.

Volkswagen has taken as its basis one of the most radical models currently in its line-up, the Golf R. This powerful compact stands as one of the fastest in its segment, but the brand has decided to accentuate all of its traits in a special way. To do so, Volkswagen has modified the exterior and offers its 50 lucky customers attractive equipment.

The Golf R presents itself as one of the most radical sporty compacts, not only for its ability to reach 600 CV as we saw recently, but also for everything the model offers as it leaves the factory. In the Unlimited edition, Volkswagen has decided to include an exclusive graphite grey vinyl, which enhances the sportiness of the Golf R and creates an attractive contrast with the 19-inch Pretoria Black wheels.

At the same time, Volkswagen has wanted to make certain equipment changes with the aim of turning this Golf R into a sporty compact with everything it needs from the start. To this end, the Unlimited edition comes standard with the exhaust system signed by Akrapovic, DCC adaptive chassis, and a performance pack with improved brakes and a very appealing element, the speed limiter removal, allowing the German compact to reach a top speed of 267 km/h.

However, to ensure these elements don’t clash, Volkswagen’s engineers have based the setup on an engine that matches the whole package. This is the well-known 2.0 TSI four-cylinder, capable of delivering 310 CV of power and 380 Nm of torque, figures sent to all four wheels and paired with a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic gearbox.

We also find other elements that don’t affect the mechanical side but will make your time in the Golf R Unlimited far more pleasant. Among the standard features are a rear-view camera, keyless access, and the Dynaudio sound system, which will envelop you in whatever music you choose to play aboard this very special Golf.

If you want to be one of the 50 lucky owners of the Volkswagen Golf R Unlimited, you’d better hurry and make your reservation on the official website, where you can choose the number that will identify your model within this special edition. The starting price of the Golf R Unlimited is 53,900 euros, a figure that represents not only the high performance of this souped-up compact, but also the high level of exclusivity it offers.
