Named for its impressive power output (400 PS), the Golf R 400 concept takes the already impressive R into supercar territory. Powered by the same basic 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine as the standard all-paw Golf, the 400 boasts a 0-100km/h time of just 3.9 seconds thanks to significant hardware and software changes to the four-pot which equate to outputs of 295kW and 450Nm – up from 221kW (206 for Australia) and 380Nm.
We can assume the power plant is a detuned version of the 309kW unit which Audi showed-off in their TT Sport Quattro concept at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year.
Aiding traction are wider tracks front and rear with flared wheel arches covering larger wheels and tyres. The concept also features revised front and rear bumpers to improve air-flow while giving a more aggressive appearance. The design sketches also suggest a green stripe through the headlights and grille will replace the chrome garnish fitted to the standard Golf R production car.
More information and details on production feasibility will be made available once the Golf R 400 concept debuts in Beijing next week.
