100% agree, said all along the mk8 gti/gtd look awful, and the wheels is my biggest gripe, was looking around a white one a couple of days ago while at vwpridepark having a new battery fitted on my 7.5 gtd (shit battery life btw) and the thing looked ugly as fuck, yet the colour on this one actually makes me want one 🤔

From a front-side view, the front bumper actually looks really good imo, but from a directly in front view, it looks weird.

Seems like the days when a vw had quite some more power than advertised is over. Ive seen quite a lot of polo aw gti on the dyno. They are also within +\- 4hp of the claimed 200hp.

[@13louif]

It is 247whp on the dyno. So about 272hp to the crank if we consider a 10% drivetrain loss! Edit: it is 247hp to the crank as a viewer correct me!

[@lazzdk]

@@13louif Where do you see the power is at the wheels? I missed that ?

The front rollers are connected to the rear rollers, because the car will most likely go into limp mode if the ECU detects that only the front wheels are moving.

Whats'up with the tail lights tho... Are they going to apply the same thing they did with the mk7 that they put the better looking tail lights on the most expensive line?

So this car is listed at 245hp to the crank, but this dyno shows it making 240whp. So Crank is more like 280.

[@arekb5951]

It shows crank hp, it measures drivetrain loss after the power run, that's why the dyno slows down so slowly.

[@sophiawoods6748]

That’s what strange! I had one of these little beasts for a week, and I got a focus st-4 and it was as quick as my focus Manuel. And even faster low down. My focus is 270bhp. No way is this 245. It’s the same 60-120 as my focus 😆

[@carl-johannilsson5666]

So it got 247 hp on the wheels, that got to be like some 300 at the crank?

[@ForTheLoveOfCarss]

Why are the back wheels spinning? Isnt it fwd? Is it so that the tcs doesnt get mixed up?

[@mkviis]

It’s to test the speed with total tire friction. All GTI’s are front wheel drive, thankfully.

[@ForTheLoveOfCarss]

@@mkviis not sure if thats thankful...:) my cupra likes to spin its wheels on bad tarmac(the elsd helps, but not always enough). Either way, how does this create more fiction? I'd imagine that the rear wheels are pushed by the spinning metals here. Meaning almost no friction. As to the real world where the rear wheels would be pulled by the front wheels.

[@mkviis]

@@ForTheLoveOfCarss there is something called tire drag, for front wheel cars, there’s also no driveshaft so driveshaft loss is non existent. Btw what Cupra model is that? I love this car

[@motektomek]

[@JacesOwnWorld]

I’m OCD, but seeing the GTI badge on the trunk directly underneath the VW badge makes me think of how often I would scrape the top of my hand when I’m opening and closing the trunk, knowing the VW symbol is the trunk handle. Bad position for that GTI badge.
