The GTI nameplate needs no introduction. Being one of the most successful hot hatches the world has ever seen, this German hatchback is a perfect combination between performance and practicality. The three-letter hatchback from Wolfsburg is not only one of the most successful models ever produced by Volkswagen, but also the standard that the automotive industry has been following for years. However, the same can’t be said of the Mk7 Golf GTI, as the playing field has been reshaped by more competent rivals throughout the years, so the GTI no longer stands at the top of its game.
