In May VW unveiled a Golf concept with a 12 cylinder engine. The rear/mid mounted engine is twin turbocharged and generates 650hp. A couple notes:
- Claimed top speed of 325 km/h
- And 0-100 km/h (62 mph) of 3.7 seconds
- 2 seater
- Retains the production car's doors, hood and lights
- Instead of spolier, carbon-fiber roof designed to work as massive diffuser
- The Golf is the second largest-selling vehicle in the world, trailing only the Toyota Corolla
- In June VW built the 25-millionth Golf
