Lot 411: 2023 Volkswagen Golf R Performance Pack

The 2023 Volkswagen Golf R with Performance Pack can sprint from 0-60 mph in approximately 4.7 seconds. This impressive acceleration comes from its 315-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with the 4Motion all-wheel-drive system and either the 6-speed manual or 7-speed DSG transmission.

Independent tests by automotive journalists have consistently clocked the Golf R in the 4.5-4.8 second range, making it one of the quickest hot hatches in its class. The Performance Pack adds features like the Drift mode and additional track-focused capabilities, but doesn’t significantly alter the 0-60 time from the standard Golf R.

This particular Lapiz Blue example you’re looking at with the 6-speed manual represents one of the last manual transmission Golf R models, making it quite special for driving enthusiasts who prefer to row their own gears.
