  • Join me as I test drive the 2024 Volkswagen Golf GTE - with 272bhp, a 0-62mph time of 6.6 seconds, and an EV range of up to 81 miles, this isn’t just another hybrid - it’s a proper hot hatch with eco-credentials. In this video, I’ll explore how the GTE stacks up against its petrol-powered GTI and R siblings in terms of performance, handling, and economy, while also looking at what makes this a great choice for both commuters and car enthusiasts.
    From its sporty looks in stunning pastel Blue to its tech-packed interior featuring a 12.9-inch infotainment screen and VW’s latest ChatGPT-integrated voice assistant, the GTE has plenty to offer. Is it the best of both worlds? Let’s find out!
    💡 Key Specs:
    Price: £40,300 (as tested £42,865)
    Power: 272bhp (combines petrol and electric motors)
    0-62mph: 6.6 seconds
    EV Range: 81 miles
    Combined MPG: 796mpg
    CO2: 8g/km
    Boot Space: 273 litres

    Did the sat nav on the car say the old name of the museum - Heritage Motor Centre?

    I had two of the previous model with only 30 or so miles range, brilliant cars - if this had been available when I last changed I'd have got one. Currently using a full EV and not going back though.

    Get the regular eHybrid. It’s cheaper with better wheel choice and longer range.

    I have been driving the Golf plug-in hybrid for 2 months now, a wonderful feeling, too bad the promised range is not correct. I charge my car to 80% full to save the battery, then I get a maximum of between 70 and 80 km out of it. When you start driving and are 15 km away, the range already indicates a consumption of more than 20 km

    That control panel is an obvious distraction in my view at least!

    Excellent car and idea of putting 83 miles ev range on it amazing would work every day for me but shame they put it in the 40k plus 300 range should of made it 39999

      Just to clarify, it’s not a full EV, it’s a hybrid; for plug-in hybrids it has one of the highest electric-only ranges available.

      CCS charging is an improvement on the model & rare for a PHEV
