Volkswagen Canada has unveiled an exciting addition to its lineup with the introduction of the limited-edition Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition. This highly anticipated model pays homage to two decades of high-performance, all-wheel-drive Golf vehicles, tracing its roots back to the iconic Golf R32 released in Europe in 2002.
With only around 500 units available, the Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition offers Canadian customers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Volkswagen history. One notable feature exclusive to the North American market is the availability of a 6-speed manual transmission, providing driving enthusiasts with a more engaging experience behind the wheel. Alternatively, customers can opt for the 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic transmission.
While retaining the sophisticated appeal of the Golf R, the 20th Anniversary Edition boasts distinctive design elements that set it apart. Gloss black 19-inch wheels, wrapped in 235/35 summer performance tires, catch the eye from the side profile. Additionally, a panoramic power sunroof comes as standard equipment, enhancing the overall driving experience.
Available in Lapiz Blue Metallic, Deep Black Pearl, and Pure White, the 20th Anniversary Edition offers a limited allocation of vehicles for each colour option. Subtle trim details further differentiate this special edition, with Lapiz Blue mirror caps on Pure White and Deep Black models, while gloss black mirror caps complement the Lapiz Blue exterior. The puddle lights project "20 R" onto the ground, adding an extra touch of exclusivity. The front and rear bumpers and front fenders feature blue "R" logos, while 20th Anniversary badges tastefully adorn the B-pillars.
Inside the cabin, the Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition showcases a sporty yet refined aesthetic. For the first time in a production Volkswagen vehicle, genuine carbon fiber decor inserts adorn the dash panel and front door trim, adding a touch of racing-inspired luxury. The key fob features a distinctive blue-finished "R" logo, serving as a constant reminder of the limited-edition model's unique appeal.
