Looks like Hyundai is going after the GTI.

I like it.

Hopefully the tiller is responsive with good feedback. Otherwise, it’s going to founder.

With 201 hp? Maybe 8 years ago. I still like the Elantra GT/I30.

Eh, it has that former Eastern Bloc vibe. Maybe it has something to do with it being built in Hungary iirc.

The GTI only makes 210 hp. That’s a pretty negligible difference.

That’s what it looks like!

I knew it didn’t look like a Hyundai, but I couldn’t place it.

The facelifted Mk7 GTI will make 245 hp in standard trim.

According to Jalopnik:

But the GTI gets some notable improvements. Power is up from 210 HP to 227 HP, and the Performance Package goes from 230 HP to 245 HP. That’s pretty excellent.

It’ll make 227 HP in standard trim. You’ll have to upgrade to the PP for 245 HP, so definitely not “245 hp in standard trim”.

While 17 HP is more significant than 9 HP, that’s still close enough to be competitive. Especially if the Hyundai can manage to be lighter.

Oops! Was looking for the Jalopnik article on the Golf facelift. I just remembered 245 hp but forgot it was only for the performance trim. That’s quite disappointing considering the Mazdaspeed 3 had around 260 hp almost a decade ago.

Well, that’s the best looking Hyundai I’ve seen in quite some time. Impressively clean.

Looks like a Mazda 3 front clip on a GTI. I like it.
