Volkswagen Canada Celebrates Two Decades of Performance with the Unveiling of the Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition

Volkswagen Canada unveils a masterpiece in celebration of a legacy that spans two decades – the Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition. Echoing the ethos of the legendary Golf R32 from 2002, this much-anticipated model is more than just a tribute.

The Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition makes a statement with its gloss black 19-inch Estoril wheels and 235/35 performance summer tires. While staying true to the Golf R's classic elegance, it wears its uniqueness with pride. To top it off, each model flaunts a panoramic power sunroof for those sunny day cruises.

Beneath its exquisite exterior, this special edition roars to life with Volkswagen's powerful EA888 evo4 TSI engine. Generating a formidable 315 horsepower, it offers a drive that gets your heart racing. Adding to the North American exclusivity, a 6-speed manual transmission option is available, alongside the 7-speed DSG dual-clutch automatic.

Boasting a torque vectoring all-wheel-drive system and an advanced DCC adaptive damping system, this Golf R seamlessly translates raw power into smooth, responsive handling for any driving condition.

Stepping inside, the 20th Anniversary Edition reveals an interior as impressive as its exterior. For the first time in a Volkswagen, genuine carbon fiber décor inserts adorn the dash panel and front door trim. The 'D' shape steering wheel and high-bolster sport seats welcome you, while the blue “R” logo on the steering wheel and key fob subtly underscore its illustrious heritage.

Only 500 units of this limited-edition marvel will grace Canadian roads, making it a collector's item. The sleek silhouette dons three striking hues: Lapiz Blue Metallic, Deep Black Pearl, and Pure White. Mirror caps in Lapiz Blue elegantly contrast the Pure White and Deep Black models, while the Lapiz Blue variant boasts gloss black caps. The dynamic "20 R" puddle light projection and the emblematic blue "R" badges on bumpers, fenders, steering wheel, and key fob give this vehicle its undeniable allure.

Get your hands on the Golf R 20th Anniversary Edition while you still can. These machines are built to drive, and they're built to be driven off the lot just as quickly. So, don’t wait, because they won’t!
