Volkswagen likes to produce a concept of what an extremely mad GTI would look like. As part of the Vision Gran Turismo concept idea, VW has produced a GTI Supersport Vision GT that will make its way to the Gran Turismo Playstation game eventually.
Worthersee Special
The bonkers GTI may also be shown in physical form at the Worthersee show in Austria in June 2015. In 2014 VW revealed the GTI Roadster concept that turned the GTI into a coupe and a low slung sportscar. This GTI Supersport is a follow up to that, and details have now been revealed.
The car is fitted with a brutal VR6 TSI engine that offers 370 kW and 665 Nm of torque mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. Those figures will keep most people glued to the game. A 0-100kph sprint time of 3.6 seconds and a top speed in excess of 300kph is nothing to scoff at either. The car also features 4MOTION all-wheel drive to keep you on track for longer.
In terms of design, the GTI Supersport Vision GT rides low on an aerodynamically optimised body. The front end features vertical light modules, large air intakes, roof edge spoiler and diffuser. The car can be raced in ‘Reflex Silver’, ‘Gran Turismo Red’, ‘Lapiz Blue’ or ‘Oryx White’.
