Interestingly the new MK8 Golf GTI/R details appear to have been leaked. (source is unverified)
From what I can tell, the model line up goes GTI / GTI TCR / R
I would presume the 2020 TCR is what the GTI Performance is now? (I know the TCR is a separate entity currently but there is no GTI Performance in the MK8 line up..so far)
Power figures are;
GTI - 180kw / 241bhp
TCR - 221kw / 296bhp
R - 245kw / 328bhp
So if we were to go by the R figures, the new Leon
Cupra could be 328php BUT could also be restricted to 296bhp.
I'm sure we've seen the lesser figure of 241 touted on the next Leon
Cupra with a Hybrid input, but that doesn't seem as clear now?
