Volkswagen Korea will hold the 'Golf R Roadshow 2026,' offering an early preview of the high-performance 'New Golf R,' which is scheduled for domestic release next year, at major showrooms nationwide from October 24 to November 26.

The Volkswagen Golf R, first unveiled to the public on the 17th through the '2026 Golf Treffen,' is a high-performance model that has carried on its legacy based on the past Golf R32. The Golf R is a special model designed for the most dedicated enthusiasts among Volkswagen Golf owners, featuring performance and details that differ significantly from those of other Golf models.

This roadshow will be conducted sequentially at nine showrooms operated by five official Volkswagen dealers nationwide (Gangnam Daechi, Suwon, Ilsan, Pangyo, Daejeon, Gwangju, Dongnae, Daegu, Incheon). Customers wishing to participate can pre-book their preferred showroom and visit schedule through Naver.

The return of the Golf R to the domestic market marks approximately 12 years since the launch of the seventh-generation Golf R in 2015. The new Golf R scheduled for domestic release is based on the facelifted eighth-generation Golf model, combining a 2.0L gasoline turbo TSI engine with a 7-speed DSG to deliver peak output of 333 horsepower. Additionally, it features a 4MOTION all-wheel drive system equipped with R-Performance Torque Vectoring, Adaptive Chassis Control (DCC), and VDM, encapsulating Volkswagen's driving technology.
