The 2016 Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance represents the pinnacle of the "hot hatch" formula, offering mechanical upgrades that transform it into a track-capable daily driver. While the standard GTI is impressive, the Performance trim in Canada pushes output to 220 hp and includes the highly coveted VAQ electronically-controlled limited-slip differential. This system actively pulls the car through corners, virtually eliminating understeer. Coupled with Dynamic Chassis Control (DCC), which allows you to switch from a comfortable highway cruise to a stiff "Race" setting at the touch of a button, this GTI offers two distinct personalities in one car.
Inside, the 2016 model year was a major milestone for VW tech, introducing the Discover Pro 8.0-inch infotainment system—a significant upgrade over the standard 6.5-inch units found in lower trims. This was also the first year to feature App-Connect, providing seamless smartphone integration.
Practicality remains the GTI’s secret weapon. Even with its performance pedigree, you still get a 580 L trunk (expanding to 1,340 L) and the convenience of a 5-door layout. Standard premium touches like the panoramic sunroof, bi-xenon adaptive headlights that "turn" into corners, and KESSY keyless access make it feel like a true luxury vehicle.
