2022 VW Golf GTI vs Golf R Review // Thrifty Meets Drifty

The 2022 Volkswagen Golf R ($47,645 CAD as specced, ~$43,645 USD) and the Golf GTI ($40,245 CAD as specced, ~$37,995 USD) are the newest hot hatches on the block. Seen today is the GTI in its performance manual trim, and the Golf R equipped with a DSG automatic transmission. Thomas and James take a look to see how these two new hot hatches compare. Will the all wheel drive Golf R be worth the extra price over its less expensive front wheel drive sibling? Watch to find out what the guys think! SUBSCRIBE!

    It’s great to see Thomas and James opening up and feeling comfortable starting discussions regarding James’ fetish with rear end play and Thomas’ difficulty getting it up. Proud of the boys for progressing difficult topics.

    “It all hits too close to home “ …I feel your pain James- that was hilarious

    This feels like what Top Gear was! Just naturally funny, good banter, genuinely seems like two buddies reviewing cars together.

    Great job on the humor. Great job on the reviews as well, actually. It's so easy to obviously try too hard to be funny and for the result to be awkward and off-putting. You guys have managed to find what at least feels like organic humor and managed to integrate it into some of the best and most informative car reviews online. Congratulations on eclipsing two million subscribers, you deserve it.

    The “Steering Wheel Heating On” at the beginning was such a subtle jab. Love it.

    Good review. I’m loving my 8 GTI. And I actually really like the interface.

    I appreciate you guys reviewing these side-by-side like this...I think if you're considering one, you're also likely considering the other as well.

    There’s a lot of car reviewers out there. But few can mix eloquence with humor like you two. Great job guys, gives me original top gear feels.

    'I talked to girls in high school... I don't know what those were' ... This channel has the best, almost hidden, moments of dialogue that are sometimes missed. But funny as hell. Awesome.
