Fr. I felt like such an idiot. I was so pissed off vw did the capacitive touch thing. But when i actually test drove one i was pleasantly surprised at how nice the "buttons" actually were
Nice video! As a '24 GTI S owner I totally agree in that the infotainment and touch capacitive buttons are unnecessarily hated. They've been nothing short of super responsive and easy to use.
Great review, have owned mk2,5,6,7,8 GTI golfs. Put getting a Mk 8 off until this year also, first drive surprised me - it was very quick , handled great too - cheers from Brisbane
Just got a golf R DSG, and honestly the infotainment system isn't all that bad as people say.. first 2 days of driving it definitely was kinda weird cuz it literally have no buttons and switches, however once you kinda get use to how things work and the short cuts then its actually quite easy. The "touch" controls on the steering wheel you actually have to press it, when I drive I tend to grab the wheel with one hand and the other will be resting on the side with my palm ontop of the touch controls, never set anything off, so I can assume its the same for the GTI.. However I just hate how I have to go into the system everytime to off the auto engine on/off, and these sound systems are...not the best I leave it at that lol ... literally other then that everything is great..
Most - though not all - car reviewers have been pretty terrible. Among other things, they obviously don’t spend any time at all understanding the infotainment system - especially the short cuts. Anyway, I love my 2023 GTI.
As good as my GLI AUTOBAHNS were, yes two of them, I find the GTI manual far superior in many ways. Nice video. Got tired of waiting for the Elantra N.
I love the mk8 styling. I’m kinda sad about the new grill that looks pasted on for the mk8.5. Also the over sized screen. So, you did good getting the 2024
You’re off about one thing. It doesn’t pull hard all the way to redline. That is not true. You can actually feel the power dipping at 5k revs and it doesn’t pull as hard after 5k revs.

You're right on about the buttons. I have a 2023 GTI and was like "Hey you have to press these" So other car reviewers are full of BS. Great job.

Hey mate, why dint you go for Elantra N given it has much power than gti
What about road noise? Is the cabin quiet on the highway?

Also the over sized screen.
So, you did good getting the 2024
Wait until you see the screen in the 2015😮
Cant wait for the refresh, small HP bump as well as a torque😮

They are wrong about the steering wheel heating, it coming on is in the HVAC screen
2023?
I owned a mk8 golf r, and all the fuss about the ux is over blowned. Stop playing with the digital system and start driving. Set it and forget it.
