2024 Volkswagen Golf GTI Reviews SummaryThe eighth-generation Volkswagen Golf GTI was introduced for the 2022 model year and enters 2024 essentially unchanged. The main news is that 2024 marks the last year a manual transmission will be available in this classic hot hatchback. Volkswagen is making a 380 special edition package standard on all stick-shift GTIs to commemorate that. A more substantial update is expected for the 2025 model year. Verdict: The GTI is a great all-rounder held back by poor interior design choices and a staid personality. | |
