Volkswagen’s Golf R has a new sibling, the Golf R Evo. The Golf R Evo is set to be unveiled in April at the Beijing Motor Show.
Like the Golf R, the Evo will be a more intense version. The weight will be reduced significantly because of the carbon fibre body panels, lighter alloy wheels and thinner seats. The rear seats will be replaced with a roll cage that helps with the sporty essence of the car.
The Evo will be powered by the Golf R’s 2.0-litre TSI that will put out around 370 horsepower and 330 pound-feet of torque, letting the hot hatch go from 0 to 99 kilometres per hour in under 4.9 seconds. The car will have a six-speed dual clutch transmission and the power will be sent to all four wheels.
Official details will be announced closer to its debut in Beijing.
