It’s taken eighteen months to come to fruition, but here’s the first glimpse of Volkswagen’s new Golf R Cabriolet.
Looking virtually identical to the Concept version, which made its début at last year’s Wörthersee event, the alacritous rag-top wears Bi-Xenon headlights, an aggressive front bumper with large air intakes and LED daytime running lights, side skirt extensions and a rear bumper with diffuser and dual tailpipes.
Sitting 25 mm lower than the regular Cabriolet, the R shares the hatchback’s Talladega alloy wheels as well as its 2.0-litre four-cylinder TSI engine developing 199 kW (270 hp) and 350 Nm of torque, enough for a sub-six second sprint to 100 km/h and 250 km/h top speed.
