At the 1975 IAA, VW presented a vehicle that was initially developed without the knowledge of the Board of Management. This sporty offshoot of the Golf 1 offered the qualities that characterise a true sports car: a low kerb weight coupled with a powerful engine. Available from 1976, the outrageously fast GTI revolutionised the car world. Everyone now has an affordable sports car suitable for everyday use that can easily keep up with the expensive competition. The 110 hp GTI truly democratised the sports car sector. Wheel arch extensions, wider wheels, the large front spoiler and a red border around the front grille characterise the compact sports car, which accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 9.2 seconds and very quickly becomes an icon.
