Oettinger’s in Worthersee
2018 owned Golf
GTI TCR Germany Street TCR Germany Street. The show car packs more punch
than a Golf R, and comes perilously close to the two mega hatch kings, the Audi
RS3 Sportback and Mercedes-AMG A45.
Its turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder petrol engine
has been tuned to deliver 360 PS and 470 Nm of torque.
The tuner claims that it’s now capable of sprinting from 0 to 100 km/h in just a little over 5 seconds, with a top speed of 274 km/h.
Either way, it’s not just about performance when it
comes to the Oettinger’s latest hot hatch, because it has the looks to match
its grunt, in the form of an aggressive body kit. The bodywork is now 80 mm wider than the stock Golf GTI, and features new air vents,
roof-mounted spoiler, a mean diffuser and more.
The Oettinger Golf GTI TCR Germany Street also gets
some interesting decals, including the ‘2 Fast 4 You?!’ added to the tailgate.
And to answer the tuner: No, it’s not too fast, as consumers already have
faster hatchbacks to choose from, and they’re stock.
Oettinger is offering these upgrades for the
2013-2018 GTI and R versions of the current-gen Golf. Those interested can
place an order for a conversion kit or a complete vehicle, and they’ll have to
contact Oettinger Sportsystems, Engstler Motorsport or exclusive dealers,
starting from next month.
