VW Golf GTI Edition 50 auf der Nordschleife

06/2025, VW Golf GTI Edition 50

Not yet on the market and already a record holder: Discover the all-new Volkswagen Golf GTI EDITION 50, the most powerful and fastest production GTI model to date! The near-production test vehicle, driven by racing driver Benny Leuchter, set the record for the fastest Volkswagen production vehicle yet at Nürburgring Nordschleife with a time of 07:46:13. Due to challenging weather conditions, only one record attempt was possible, making this achievement even more remarkable.  
 
Join us as we explore what makes the Golf GTI EDITION 50 a true track legend, and get ready for its world premiere on June 20, 2025, at the 24-hour race at Nürburgring. This exclusive anniversary model will feature exceptional performance elements, including an optional Performance package, which includes a performance chassis and particularly lightweight 19-inch semi-slick tyres from @bridgestoneEMEA which have been specially developed for the car. 

Important to note: For earlier communicated lap times of other models, the timed lap on the Nürburgring Nordschleife started flying in front of grandstand T13. The start and finish for the measurement were at the beginning and end of the grandstand, respectively; the approximately 200 meters in between were not counted. The official lap time of 07:46:13 for the Golf GTI EDITION 50 includes this distance. For better comparison, this video includes the official record lap time and the time for the formerly used distance.
