From the leaked photo, you can tell that the new GTI has a large spoiler, which is not something that the seventh-generation GTI had. What we’re likely seeing here then is either a hotter Clubsport S or the GTI TCR model.

Volkswagen has announced earlier that the eighth-generation Golf GTI will get an evolutionary redesign with alloy wheels that are reminiscent of past GTI models.

The Engine of the new GTI will be powered by VW’s EA888 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, and there will two horsepower ratings, with the standard GTI getting around 232 horsepower and the sportier Clubsport version will have around 286 horsepower. Following the debut of the new GTI in March, the next-generation Golf R will debut in July.
