2020 Golf GTI Specs: The GTI's turbocharged 228-hp four-cylinder is one of the greats. It doesn't offer overwhelming power but delivers instant response and solid acceleration. The clutch pedal in models with the manual transmission is easy to use, which means that shifting is never a chore. The optional dual-clutch automatic is one of our favorite non-manual transmissions. We'd happily pilot a GTI every day. It is nimble and responsive and takes corners beautifully. Most important, the GTI is well coordinated and predictable, responding just as you'd want to your steering and throttle inputs. The GTI reacts to steering inputs so quickly and accurately that you'll think the car is a sentient being. Its brakes are firm and progressive on the road and strong on the track.
