The 2025 Volkswagen Golf R Black Edition is a limited-edition, high-performance variant of the eighth-generation Volkswagen Golf. It was unveiled in October 2023 and is scheduled to go on sale in early 2025. The Golf R Black Edition is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 328 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, which is sent to all four wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
The Golf R Black Edition features a number of unique styling cues that set it apart from the standard Golf R. These include a gloss black grille and mirror caps, black 19-inch alloy wheels, and a black rear spoiler. The interior of the Golf R Black Edition features black leather seats with gray stitching, a black headliner, and carbon fiber trim.
