AutoExec Summary
The iconic Volkswagen Golf GTI hot hatch will continue as an electric model when the brand’s small car line goes electric-only by 2028. The GTI name will be carried on, with the electric Golf expected to be affordable and capable like its petrol-powered predecessor. The Golf R’s future as an electric model is uncertain, and there may be an overlap between the electric Golf and the existing ID.3. The electric Golf will use the upcoming Scalable System Platform architecture. A smaller ID.2 GTI is also expected.
