Hot hatch or Warm hatch? This car is a Hot Hatch in my opinion. I was lucky enough to own the original Mk 1 Golf GTi back in the day and currently own an Up Gti in white. The up shares the same driving spirit as the original so well done to VW for going back to its hot hatch roots. It's a modern take on that old school classic, light weight, manual gearbox and enough power going through the front wheels without to much torque steer. My orignal Golf GTi was the last of the Mk 1 breed, with a 1.8 litre engine producing 112 bhp, it was called The Campaign Model, registered in the UK in the early half of 1984. As far as I'm concerned, any car marketed as a Hot Hatch must at least be producing more than the original formula which was 110 bhp. The up has more than this. If you want a warm hatch then try the Beats version of the Up which has less than 110 at 90 bhp, the Kia Placanta GT line at 99 bhp Etc. Motoring journalists nowadays are use to driving cars with 300bhp plus like Type R Civic's, VW Golf R's and Renault Megane's etc, which are no longer Hot Hatches but are now Hyper Hatches or Super Hatches! Stop calling these cars Hot Hatches! They are pumped up versions of the orignal model that it's based from. The Golf GTi is a perfect example. You have the Golf GTi which is classed as a Hot Hatchback but the other versions have gone beyond. Golf R, Golf Clubsport, Golf TCR are all hotter versions than the GTi, they are great cars, they are Hyperhatches or Superhatches! They are great cars but have gone beyond what is required to be considered a Hot Hatch, Four wheel drive, Torque Vectoring, Paddle Shift Gearboxes, different buttons for Race Modes and Suspension Settings etc. These cars are designed for the track while being road legal while the Up Gti was designed specifically for the road! You don't need 200 bhp plus to have fun, think of the orignal Mazda MX-5, that didn't have a lot of horsepower but wipes the floor with its rivals for sheer handling and fun! My point is that the fond memories I have of the orignal Mk 1 Golf comes through in driving the GTi Up in a modern way, It puts a smile on my face when I drive it and is quicker in the real world than the paper figures suggests, I believe not many will be made and will be a cult classic in the future like the orignal Mk 1. As for fake sounds? It's not entirely fake, the sound is actually coming from the intake which is digitally amplified into the cabin since the engine noise is rather quiet. No doubt there are faster hot Hatches than the Up but how fast do you need to be going in those cars before you feel like your having fun? You need a track to really exploit the limits of the hyper Hatches where as in the Up, all the performance is accessible. The Up Gti is a hot hatch in an old school sort of way where fun is more important on the road than outright speed and cornering ability as with the Hyper hatches of today.

Would not sell seeing you can tune this car to 150hp already with a remap. A 160hp r tho I would buy instantly. No 4motion needed. It would take away the character of the car. Just the traction cobtrol should be abled to turn off in the R.

Top Up!

JBS Tuning in Chesterfield, here in the Uk, can safely increase that hp to just over 140hp, by just changing the ECU software. I had my Gti remapped by them in September 2019, and its now producing 143.2hp. That hp increase makes a big difference

Why not the twingo ?

I have the new e-Up! and it's pretty comparable with this gti. It's got the sporty bumpers, 16" rims, and the interior is pretty much the same but every red touch is blue. It's got even stiffer suspension but that's because it's about 300kg heavier. Yeah, you got more torque and it's always instant, but you miss the sound of the engine and the really nice manual gearbox. I guess it's a give and take but nevertheless I love both and I think Vw did a great job with the Up! range. Tbh they should push it more with advertising because I feel like most people don't even know this exists.

@@michaelmike4304 The “C” shaped LEDs are actually the daytime running lights. They look cool but with the from the factory the headlight bulbs are much much warmer than the LEDs. I switched them with some Philips White Vision bulbs that are much much brighter and colder than the factory ones and match the LEDs perfectly. One of the best mods for sure. One bad thing is that the eUp doesn’t have fog lights, which you miss a lot when there’s heavy fog.

Tiny cars don't do that well in the US normally. Also, VW is probably trying to maintain a certain image/cachet and this might be too inexpensive (cf. Audi, Mercedes, and BMW not selling their least expensive model and/or 'bargain' options on other models).

Why the fCK would you drive a economic car if gasoline in US is basically for free compared to The Netherlands. Long time ago when I was digging the 350Z nissan. Found out all teenagers drove these things in the USA, lets say; the ones on that forum. This is the contrast between countries. Here you need to have a VERY good job to afford a car like that. Taxes and stuff.. We get screwed by the gasprices here, and over there you're loser if you drive less than 6 cilinders.
