Volkswagen plans to release a hybrid hatchback Golf R +

The final decision on the fate of the project has not yet been made, but if it receives green light from the leadership of VAG, the hatchback will be equipped with a two-liter “four” from the Golf R, which will rotate the front wheels, as well as an electric motor on the rear axle and a lithium-ion battery. Probably, such a design will inevitably make the car heavier, but the electric drive should provide a noticeable improvement in dynamics. The Volkswagen Golf R + will be able to reach the conveyor no earlier than 2023 and will debut, most likely, already with the restyled version of the eighth generation family.
