    Volkswagen has officially revealed the latest generation of its halo Golf model, the new Mk8 Golf R. The most powerful model in the Golf line, the new R boasts 316bhp and 310 pound-feet of torque from its 2.0-litre turbocharged engine. With standard 4Motion all-wheel drive, the Golf R can sprint from 0-100kph in just 4.7 seconds on its way to a top track speed of 250kph. Image Credit: Supplied

    The new 4Motion setup features selective wheel torque control on the rear axle 鈥� the new rear differential distributes the power between the front and rear axles, and also between the two rear wheels. Volkswagen says this has made it possible to significantly increase the agility of the Golf R. Image Credit: Supplied

    The exterior design of the new Golf R includes a new front bumper featuring a motorsport-style splitter and R-specific air intake grilles, with high-gloss black elements. At the top of the radiator grille, the Golf features a blue crossbar which lights up as an LED strip as soon as the engine starts and stretches all the way into the fenders to act as the daytime running lights.
