Motoring: VW releases Golf GTI Cabriolet

This is the most powerful VW Cabriolet ever. Revealed at the Geneva Auto Show, the VW Golf GTI Cabriolet accelerates  from 0 to 100 km/h within 7.3 seconds, its top speed with the roof up is 237 km/h (DSG: 235 km/h). Pricing and availability has not yet been announced but seeing this in North America is unlikely seeing that the EOS and the Beetle Cabriolet are hot sellers.

Based on the year-old, third-generation Golf cabriolet, the GTI  version receives the same turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine as the GTI with 211 hp.
