The Volkswagen Golf GTI is one of the world’s most iconic “hot hatch” performance cars. Now, more than four decades after its debut, this speedy little roadster is still turning heads. Volkswagen recently announced that 2024 will be the final year for the car’s manual transmission, so if you’re a die-hard stick-shifter, snag your six-speed model while you can. The automatic transmission will continue the VW Golf GTI legacy, however, so don’t worry – the only place this feisty hatchback will be going is off our lot and into your driveway.

Both manual and automatic powertrains are fueled by a 13.2-gallon tank and use regular unleaded gasoline.
