    Volkswagen Golf 8 GTI Lands In South Africa

    Last week we got some sneaky shots of a white Volkswagen Golf 8 GTI that had just arrived in South Africa and today we have some official info from Volkswagen South Africa on the highly-anticipated hot hatch.

    The local arm has confirmed that the Golf 8 GTI has indeed arrived in South Africa but will only be launched in the third quarter of 2021.

    “The Volkswagen Group has been impacted by the global shortage of the semiconductor chips and all vehicles built on the MQB platform have been affected. For this reason, the launch of the Golf 8 GTI in South Africa will now move to the third quarter,” said Steffen Knapp, Head of the Volkswagen Passenger Car Brand.

    “We are working closely with our German counterparts to ensure that we get as many Golf 8 GTI units for the local market as possible. A few Golf 8 GTI units started arriving in the country from mid-April. These units will be stockpiled until we have enough vehicles for the launch at the beginning of the third quarter,” added Knapp.

    South Africa is one of the biggest Golf GTI markets outside of Europe. The Golf 7 GTI sold over 14 000 units since its launch in South Africa in July 2013. The Golf was also the best-selling model range in the A Hatch segment in South Africa last year with a 29.1% segment share.

    Customers who want to be kept informed on launch plans can visit the Volkswagen website: New golf GTI.

The H6 is proving to be a big success in SA and this sportier-looking offering is likely to sell very well in Mzansi.
