Do you guys like the MINI hatchback turned cabriolet? Of course not, it’s a big girl’s blouse with a silly boot lid that makes you look like you’re stuffing a duck in an over every time you try to put something in.
Thankfully, three’s an equally German alternative on the road, and it’s called the the Golf GTI Cabrio. It comes with a bigger two-liter engine and is less... posh. Thankfully though, there might be an alternative for the people who think 210 horsepower isn’t enough.
A Chinese website has uncovered copyright patents for a production version of the Golf R Concept that was shown at last year’s Wothersee GTI meet in Austria, the one we’re showing you. These patent images basically all but confirm a production version is coming, since there is no other reason to protect the car’s basic shape in China.
The Golf R Cabriolet should make use of a 2.0-liter four cylinder engine and all-wheel drive. The standard sprint should be dealt with in about 6 seconds, which is amazing considering the lack of a roof. Lookf or a production model to debut this year, seeing as the Golf Mk7 is just around the corner.
