Comparison of Pros & Cons
Pros
  • Much more spacious than the outgoing model, now with much improved head, shoulder and leg room. The boot is also more spacious. Overall, a much better hatchback that is more capable of doing the family-car duties.
  • The M135i xDrive with 306 PS / 450 Nm and all-wheel drive traction Incredibly fast, agile and capable. There is plenty of refinement too, thanks to an all-new platform.
  • Interior is much higher quality with the fitment of higher quality materials and fit and finish. Everything feels solid and good to touch.

  • By every quantifiable performance metric, the new 2022 Volkswagen Golf R Mk8 is a better car

  • Dampers, spring rates, and anti-roll bars are all stiffer than the outgoing model, which greatly benefits body control and handling

  • There is just so much traction available all the time, from the way this superhatch steers, to the way it stops as well

Cons
  • Moving the layout to front-wheel drive erased the one huge appeal of the 1 Series- a rear-wheel drive hatchback that no competitor offered.
  • Only the range-topping M135i xDrive available locally, which is BMW 5 Series pricing
  • The Active Sound Design that plays synthetic engine noise is not enjoyable, as it is too loud and borderline too artificial sounding.
Read More
  • The way the new Volkswagen Golf R dishes out performance is a tad too clinical
  • Stiffened setup means comfort is sacrificed at the altar of performance, and broken tarmac on lower speeds are especially noticeable
  • Interior has an obvious lack of physical buttons, and while this minimalistic design is aesthetically pleasing, it can be a chore to push the right ones… especially when the ride gets bumpy
