For the beginning, the 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine is now capable to develop 271 horsepower and 380Nm of torque, an improvement of 63hp and 100Nm of torque.

The additional power was obtained thanks to a reworked ECU unit and a new exhaust system.

BBM Motorsport partnered with CFC-Styling which wrapped the Golf GTI in a matte blue foil while several components such as the rear diffuser, mirror caps and hood are made of carbon fiber.

The exterior appearance is also improved thanks to a new set of 20-inch alloy wheels with contrasting orange accents, wheels shod in 235/30R20 tires.

Other improvements brought by BBM Motorsport to the German model include a high-performance KW suspension and a new set of four-piston calipers from StopTech.

BBM Motorsport released no pricing or availability details for the Golf GTI tuning kit for now.
