A new version of the VW Golf R is just around the corner and has been previewed by the car manufacturer in an entertaining and fun teaser clip.
This new model is known as the VW Golf R 333 Limited Edition and will follow in the footsteps of the Golf R 20 Years Edition launched in 2022 and built for just 12 months. Like the 20 Years Edition, the Golf R 333 Limited Edition will pump out 333 PS which translates to 329 hp. As you’ll probably agree, ‘333’ has more ring to it than ‘329.’
The teaser video shows that the hot hatch will be finished in a bright shade of yellow and come complete with a handful of blue accents. These will include blue ‘R’ badges as well as blue brake calipers. We can also see that the Golf R 333 Limited Edition will have black ‘333’ graphics on the lower part of the doors, black wing mirrors, 19-inch black wheels, and an Akrapovic exhaust system.

It is not yet known if other color combinations will be offered but we’ll find out when the car is unveiled on May 31.
Given the likelihood of the car producing the same 329 hp as the Golf R 20 Years Edition, it should also push out the same 309 lb-ft (420 Nm) of torque. While the standard Golf R matches this torque figure, it is slightly down on power with 315 horses. Of course, customers probably won’t be able to feel that extra grunt but it’s definitely a nice thing to have.
CarScoops expects that VW will also make a series of alterations to the interior of the Golf R 333 Limited Edition. These will probably include some special badges or graphics as well as some colorful accents to match the yellow and blue of the exterior.
