New 2025 Volkswagen Golf R Mk8 Akrapovic Review: Exhaust Sound, Interior and Exterior

The 2025 Volkswagen Golf 8 R is the ultimate evolution of VW’s legendary hot hatch. Priced from €55,000, this all-wheel drive performance hatchback delivers 245 kW (333 PS) from its 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, sprinting from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 4.7 seconds. With advanced Drift Mode, precision chassis tuning, and everyday practicality, the Golf R remains one of the most versatile performance cars on the market. Engine: 2.0L 4-cyl turbocharged Power: 245 kW (333 PS) Transmission: 7-speed DSG, AWD 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph): 4.7 sec Top speed: 250 km/h (155 mph) Price: from €55,000 Fuel economy: 31 mpg / 8.1 L/100 km Compared to rivals like the Audi RS3, Mercedes-AMG A45 S, BMW M135i, Honda Civic Type R, and Hyundai i30 N, the Golf R strikes a balance of subtle design, cutting-edge tech, and all-weather grip. Its titanium exhaust option enhances the sound experience, while the 7-speed DSG dual-clutch gearbox provides lightning-quick shifts — though purists may wish for a true manual option. Inside, the Mk8 Golf R features sports seats, an R-mode button, configurable drive modes, and a high-tech digital cockpit. Yet, some enthusiasts argue the Mk7 Golf R offered a more intuitive interior, making this comparison one of the hottest debates in the hot-hatch world. Still, the Golf R remains a true daily driver with 31 mpg (7.6 L/100 km) fuel economy and the ability to transform into a B-road weapon at the push of a button. With real exhaust tips (unlike some rivals), aggressive styling, and all-round usability, the Golf R continues to define the “superhatch” category. Whether you’re looking for a daily commuter, a winter weapon, or a car that blends performance with comfort, the Golf 8 R proves why Volkswagen’s R division is still a benchmark.

But is it still the best choice in 2025, or has the Audi RS3, AMG A45 S, or BMW M135i stolen its crown?
