VW Singapore Launches Special Edition Golf GTI V50 with 246HP

While the rest of the world is getting ready to welcome the sixth-generation Golf GTI, in Singapore, Volkswagen has just released a souped-up, limited edition version of the outgoing model that has gained some grunt. Performance upgrades on the Golf GTI V50 (Mark V) include a 'Stage 1' ECU tuning and a new sport exhaust system that add 46 more horsepower and an extra 102Nm of torque for a total output of 246HP and 382Nm of peak torque.

Equipped with a 6-speed DSG, the fifth-generation GTI V50 goes from zero to 100km/h (62 mph) in just 5.6 seconds versus the standard GTI's 6.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 261 km/h or 162mph (basic GTI: 233 km/h or 145mph).

Additional upgrades include the larger brake discs and callipers derived from the Golf R32, the 18-inch alloy wheels shod in 225/40 R18 Pirelli P-Zero tires and a new bodykit complemented by a two-tone black and white paint job which we could have done without.

The good news for GTI fans is that the limited edition Golf GTI V50 comes with a full factory warranty. The bad news is that it will be available only in Singapore.
