Is the 2021 VW Golf GTI the hot hatch to buy with a 6-speed manual?

The GTI is the original hot hatch from Volkswagen. The Golf GTI brings versatility for daily driving, but also provides a great driving experience. Under the hood is a 2.0L inline-4 turbocharged engine that is producing 228HP & is mated to a 6-speed manual. On the outside you find the traditional lines of the Golf that has evolved over the years. On the interior there are leather seats, high level of fit, and plenty of space.

This channel is 99% perfect. The one percent missing is the timestamps or whatever it's called for different parts of the review on the slider at the bottom. Then I can quit my job, leave my family and just watch Joe all day everyday.

" The Original Hot Hatch!" No car in history deserves this title more than the VW GTI, very well put Joe!

This is an absolute must-buy. It doesn't get any better than this. Autobahn, 6 speed manual, red color, 10 spoke machined wheels.

Great video! My girlfriend hates when I go pee now cause I shout "On Throttle!"

This particular GTI seems to really fit you Joe. I can tell you really had a blast in it. Would be an awesome daily for you. 👍

My GTI is 5 years old with almost 100k miles on it. Hasn’t had a major issue yet. It puts a smile on my face each time I drive it. 🚗💨

Wow that car is deceptive when it comes to interior space, was not even expecting the trunk space to be the big!

If you're considering getting a GTI, get a GTI!!! LOL I love my MK7.5 in the Tornado Red. Puts a smile on my face everyday and it is everything Raiti said it is in the beginning of the review! It's a GTI. Enough said! Great review as always! Cheers from Toronto!

The GTI is so much fun to drive! I love my 2018 Autobahn!

[spaztekwarrior]

In my neck of the woods an AWD makes more sense. So for me it’s the Golf R :)

[paullazecki]

Love my 2020 Autobahn DSG...for all the reasons you felt...and one of the best platforms for customizing...makes going to work a fun trip and the Fender sound system is perfect for this car....

[abbaby]

I love it! I'm a huge GTI fan since 1984

[Nizon]

those wheels are lit! i just got a 2020 and i love it so far

[theyoutubeofmyname]

My second car was the 2003 GTI 1.8T. I loved that car so much...so fun.

I got a '19 SE manual one year ago and I'm still giddy to drive the car every day. It's a lot of fun and just a great car. Kids fit comfortably, nice tech, and great MPGs (upper 30s on hwy).
