As the saying goes, "no wind can no waves rise", the appearance of this new Golf R in China may mean that this car will be introduced into China. Based on the current domestic high-performance hatchback market, the model with similar positioning as Golf R is mainly Mercedes-AMG A 35 4MATIC, priced at 395,700 yuan. For reference, the AMG A 35 is equipped with a 2.0T engine, with a maximum power of 306 horsepower, a peak torque of 400 Nm, and is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission and a four-wheel drive system, with an acceleration time of 0-100 km/h of 4.7 seconds. However, from the perspective of brand and price, if the domestic price of the new Golf R is still around 400,000 yuan, the Volkswagen logo of the Golf R may be difficult to compete with the "three-pointed star" on the front of the AMG A 35. Perhaps only loyal fans and extremely low-key consumers will spend a lot of money on it. Are you looking forward to the new Golf R? (Domestic actual car source: First SG)
