The Volkswagen Golf R is an institution in and of itself, and with this new version, they are going back to the roots with a full-blown race car from.
VW has, through Motor1, unveiled an early look at a hardcore, track-only Golf R being developed for the 24 Hours of Nürburgring, with a planned debut in 2027. The project is being co-developed with Max Kruse Racing, and it's... well, it looks serious.
They call it the "Golf R 24H" with aggressive aero upgrades that make the road car look tame by comparison. There's a massive front splitter, heavily widened arches, a huge rear wing, and a stripped-out rear section designed purely for performance.
We don't know anything about actual performance figures for now, but you can see the first images below.
