Volkswagen Golf Gti W12-g50 at Wörthersee

Volkswagen has given the people at WÃ¶rthersee something to dream about. It has become a part of Volkswagenâs tradition to show off its Golf GTI in the Austrian Land at WÃ¶rthersee and every year thousands of people come to witness the grand exhibition of one of VWâs remarkable creations.

This year is the time for the Golf GTI W12-G50 show car to show off what it got. This particular GTI is a one-of-a-kind Golf. Itâs broader, stronger, and above all faster. It runs like the Pace Car of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Its name by the way means W12-Zylinder, 650 HP (477 kW with 6,000 rpm). The Golf GTI W12-G50 is a vehicle not to be belittled plus it also provides a glimpse on the huge potential that Golf has to offer.

The 6.0 liter of Biturbo engine that the Golf GTI W12-G50 possesses is longitudinal and placed directly behind the driver and the front seat passenger. ---This is what precisely distinguished Golf GTI W12-650 from the rest of the classical central engine car.

The Golf GTI W12-650 is also equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission that transfers 750 Newtonmeters to the rear axle. This enables the Golf GTI W12-650 to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds. Its top speed is 325 km/h which by the way is far beyond what worldâs supercars can achieve.

Golf GTI W12-650 was made possible through the collaborative efforts of automotive engineers and designers. They were responsible for giving the GTI W12 650 its 1.88 meters spread and 1.42 meters flattened body. The chassis components of the Golf GTI W12-650 were derived directly from supersports car. The wheels are made from a light alloy and because of its gigantic wheel dimensions a specially engineered tire had to be produced exclusively for the GTI W12-650.

Despite the tremendous power that the GTI W12-650 provides the fact still remains that it is a Golf GTI and would therefore be quipped with GTI parts and car accessories although not entirely the whole entire component lineup but some important parts that will give hints of its being a GTI.

Unfortunately despite the powerful performance of the GTI W12-650 there is still a problem which regards to manner of supplying the 6-liter central engine with ample amount of air and to produce enough drift at the rear axle without damaging the silhouette of the Golf GTI W12-650. To solve this problem the C-Columns were re-designed in such a way that they lead air to the engine. The rear side windows were also made to run inward to make the two channels between the disks and the C-columns on both sides to drive air into the engine.

The HAMANN F430 has also great things to offer in terms of interior. It is furnished with Alcantara leather and on the middle range of the armatures are three rows of auxiliary instruments. The transparent âFlip UPâ switch guards for central functions are derived from the race track.

Fire extinguishers are integrated in the place of the glove compartment to give the impression of the race. And due to weight reasons the door linings are completely âstrippedâ and only lattices are used to provide a complete view of the interior mechanics of the door.
