Is there a normal car in my Golf GTI 2025 and Golf R 2025

 The German company VW has decided the fate of the continued provision of the normal GW option in the Golf GTI 2025 and Golf R 2025.

Volkswagen brought the Golf GTI 2025 and its sister Golf R 2025 camouflaged to CES in Las Vegas last month, but it was actually revealed weeks later in Europe. While the model with American specifications is still not present.

Confirming our worst concerns, the 6-speed regular gear will disappear on golf cars after the 2024 model, with Mr. Jerohn Anderson, a product communications specialist at VW, said: “I can inform you that the regular gear will not be available after 2024 on the Golf GTI and Golf R.”

There have been some reports of VW’s position change due to strict Euro 7 regulations, but the Golf GTI 2025 with European specifications debuted only with the DSG gear, as a result, the versions of this model to be sold in the US market may also lose the normal gear, the special edition of the GTI 380 marks the end of the road for the three-wheeled golf car “normal gear” in the USA.

If you’re wondering why the Euro 7 standard affects the American version of Golf 2025 cars, there’s a logical explanation, the sales of a normal Golf GTI car in America accounted for only about 5% of the total sales volume of this model in 2023. Since the bulk of sales came from other markets, maintaining the third pedal in North America was not worth it.

Although the Golf R was not offered with a regular gear in Europe, Americans can move their own gears. However, the watch is ticking because the flagship four-wheel drive model will also be sold by the Gear Automatic as of the 2025 model.

This information confirms that the Golf GTI 2025 and Golf R 2025 from VW will not be available with a normal replacement but only with an automatic.
