No joke this car is underrated beyond belief. Volkswagen has always been conservative but this much? Crazy!!!
We also corner weighted the vehicle, granted this is the absolute base model it's lighter than we expected.
Now it all makes sense why these are slightly faster in a straight line than the Focus ST.
*VW claims 210hp & 258tq. With 15% drive train loss we are seeing 263hp & 314tq while 100% stock.
Curb weight with a full tank of gas...
GTI dyno runs...
Stock MK7 GTI dyno runs vs Stock Focus ST dyno runs, they are extremely close...
