Test Drive: 2015 Volkswagen GTI (05:24)

Published on September 7, 2015 in Video Reviews by Graeme Fletcher

The first version of Volkswagen's GTI hot hatch debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1975, and it's been an icon ever since.

Arguably the creator of the hot hatch segment, the GTI enters its seventh generation with an all-new platform and a 210-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine.

The legend lives on.
