Slated to make its official debut on May 31, the new VW Golf R 333 brings unique gold paint and some performance adjustments to the all-wheel drive hot hatch.

The short teaser doesn't feature a ton of specifics, but it does give us a good look at some of the adjustments VW made. The gold paint is the most obvious addition, looking far more sophisticated than the select hues on offer for Golf R buyers. A bespoke graphics package also runs along the bottom of the doors, matching the black mirror caps on either flank. We can also see a set of the brand's 19-inch Estoril wheels, behind which sit a set of blue brake calipers. VW has also fitted the Golf R 333 Limited Edition models with an Akrapovič exhaust system, complete with four tips in a bright finish. That'll surely make it sound great.

 

While that's about all that VW has confirmed so far, there are further hints as to what we can expect in its name. Last year, VW released a few different takes on a Golf R 20 Years special edition model for its various global markets. In Europe, that anniversary model came equipped with a variant of the 2.0-liter turbo-four making 328 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. If you measure that output in German Pferdestärke, that figure jumps to a round 333 PS. It is then not unlikely to assume a similarly trimmed engine will find its way to the Golf R 333. That will also make the Golf R 333 tied for the title of most powerful Golf model yet.

The Golf R should continue with its signature narrow V6 engine aka VR6. Maybe smaller capacity like 2.5L turbo instead of the 3.2L NA. But then it will have conflict with Audi RS models with the 2.5L 5cylinder turbo engine.

Strangely the Bentley has the W12 option which is two VR6 put together. Bugatti's W16 is like the oddball unicorn.

Germans...because they can.

Why not consider a Tesla model 3 performance - cheaper, faster and more high tech.
