2024 Volkswagen Golf GTI Trims Comparison
2024 Golf GTI trim level differences
The 2024 Golf GTI is a four-door hatchback that's available in three trim levels: S, SE and Autobahn. Power comes from a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (241 horsepower, 273 lb-ft of torque) that drives the front wheels through either a six-speed manual transmission or an optional seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. Feature highlights for each trim level include:
Which 2024 Golf GTI trim does Edmunds recommend?
The base GTI S trim comes so well equipped, we think most sporty-car shoppers will be happy with its features. But if you want a more engaging driving experience and don't mind a manual transmission, we recommend the GTI 380 S. For a small premium, it adds adaptive suspension dampers, 19-inch gloss black wheels with summer performance tires, and a black roof and black side mirror caps.
