A production version of the Volkswagen Golf R400 concept is “now in development”, according to VW technical chief Heinz-Jakob Neusser.
Neusser gave no indication of a launch date for the most potent Golf model yet, which in concept form produced 395bhp and 332lb ft from its beefed-up turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine, taken from the Golf R.
The R400 is all-wheel drive and uses a six-speed manual gearbox. It can hit 62mph from rest in just 3.9sec and reach a top speed of 174mph.
