The Golf R32 - The new top-of-the-range model of a bestseller

No standard Golf has ever had such a powerful engine as the new R32. Its 3.2-litre V6 engine is the same one as is used in the new Phaeton luxury saloon. The power output of the R32's transverse six-cylinder engine is 177 kW (at 6250 rpm) and it can take Europe's best-selling car from 0 to 100 kph in just 6.6 seconds. The new Volkswagen can cover a kilometre in 26.7 seconds from a standing start, and its top speed is 247 kph. The throttle control is designed in such a way that it responds in an extraordinarily instant and agile way to the slightest movement of the accelerator pedal.

PS: The article includes *33* pictures of the car!
