VW brings some GTI attitude to its electric Golf
Volkswagen has a long history of hot hatches stretching all the way back to the Frankfurt motor show in 1975, where it unveiled of the original Golf GTI.

Not only is it Volkswagen’s first proclaimed hot hatch powered entirely by an electric motor, but it’s also the first to be sold exclusively with rear-wheel drive.
