Volkswagen GLI 2008


200 Turbo charged horses to satisfy that keen sense of adventure you're 25% more likely to have. Compact, powerful, and all that more aggressive because of it. Call it the Napoleon complex, but this lightweight engine can't resist proving itself at every opportunity.

With 200 horse power at its disposal, the 2.0T Jetta GLI does just that, but with significantly reduced turbo lag. Leveraging its direct fuel injection, this bundle of power gives you all the pull you need, at both ends of the power band.

Oh, and it does all of this as a 4-cylinder, so you get the powerof a larger displacement engine in an engine that knows how to suck every last sip of acceleration out of a litre of fuel. Fuel efficient and powerful? It's like they can read your mind.
