Furthermore, the power goes to all four wheels via a Haldex all-wheel-drive system, and a brand-new torque-vectoring rear differential. The &#8216;Torque-Splitter&#8217; allows almost all of the torque to be transmitted to individual rear wheels. As a result, the system completely changes the driving dynamics of the Arteon R. Simply put, when pushed to the limit, it should handle like a rear-wheel-drive vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>The Arteon R tested by Volkswagen features a distinctive exterior with blue paint, new 20-inch&#8217; Estoril&#8217; rims, and an active exhaust system with four pipes. Inside the cabin, an R-flavoured interior trim with an R-stitched steering wheel, switchgear, and custom paddle shifters really shows the Arteon&#8217;s &#8220;R&#8221; character.<\/p>\n<h2>Golf R<\/h2>\n<p>VW&#8217;s iconic hatch, the Golf, is one of the best-selling vehicles in Europe and reached its 8th generation update. The R-spec version features a redesigned front end, a tall rear wing, quad exhaust ports, and Volkswagen&#8217;s EA888 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four just like the Arteon R.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5978 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-5.jpg\" alt=\"Volkswagen Golf R\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-5.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-5-768x512.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/533;\" \/><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-5952 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/volkswagen-tests-the-golf-r-and-arteon-r-shooting-brake-at-nurburgring\/volkswagen-golf-r-3'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-3-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail lazyload\" alt=\"Volkswagen Golf R\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/150;\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/volkswagen-tests-the-golf-r-and-arteon-r-shooting-brake-at-nurburgring\/volkswagen-studie-golf-r-touch'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-4-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail lazyload\" alt=\"Volkswagen Golf R\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/150;\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/volkswagen-tests-the-golf-r-and-arteon-r-shooting-brake-at-nurburgring\/volkswagen-golf-r-4'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-2-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail lazyload\" alt=\"Volkswagen Golf R\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/150;\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/volkswagen-tests-the-golf-r-and-arteon-r-shooting-brake-at-nurburgring\/der-neue-volkswagen-golf-r-und-golf-r-variant'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.emanualonline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2021-Volkswagen-Golf-R-1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail lazyload\" alt=\"Volkswagen Golf R\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 150px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 150\/150;\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Again, Volkswagen will pair the engine to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. The Golf R will also get an overhauled all-wheel-drive system with torque-vectoring on the rear wheels.<\/p>\n<p>Other mechanical updates include a better braking setup and a lower sports suspension with adaptive dampers. Volkswagen will probably switch from 18-inch to 19-inch wheels as well.<\/p>\n<p>The stability control will also gain upgrades. Namely, the driver will be able to manually adjust the settings using a rotary dial instead of the classic on\/off switch, allowing to fine-tune the stability control system.<\/p>\n<p>The interior trim gets the &#8216;R&#8217; treatment too with new bucket seats, R-steering wheel, and switchgear.
