2016 Volkswagen GTI TCR race car
Volkswagen has released these teaser drawings of its sizzling new Golf GTI TCR, which will be capable of 264km/h with its 250km/h limiter removed, 14km/h faster than even the Golf R.
Get ready for the fastest Golf GTI yet.
The Golf GTI TCR is similar in concept to the limited-edition 2016 Clubsport Edition 40, which marked the Golf GTI's 40th birthday and was a top-of-the-range GTI that sat just below the Golf R.
Official acceleration times have yet to be revealed, but the TCR should cover the 0-62mph sprint in about six seconds.

Following a set of teaser images, VW says the auto is close to production. Based on the GTI that races in the TCR series, this GTI TCR sticks with its 2.0-liter turbocharged I4, but output jumps to 286 hp.
Running the same engine as the Golf GTI, the GTI TCR offers 213kW and 370Nm of torque running through a seven-speed DSG and the front-wheels only.
The next-generation Golf GTI is set to adopt a mild hybrid powertrain that promises to boost performance and refinement while reducing fuel consumption and emissions compared with the current model. The TCR bit of its name is borrowed from the TCR International Series, an international touring vehicle championship, in which Volkswagen competes with a GTI-derived race auto.
