I test-drove the Volkswagen GTI against many of its competitors like the Honda Civic Si and Mazda3 Hatch and found it to be unbeatable in comparison with others. Its exterior design is functional and understated, with LED headlights that give it a sophisticated look. Inside, it is equipped with leather seats that offer exceptional comfort. During long journeys, the cabin offers a serene and quiet environment. Among its competitors, it has the most potent engine. The clutch offers an excellent feel with a manual transmission and the shifter performs quite well.
