The higher spec GTI 270 version, produces a chunkier 270bhp - the same as the RCZ R - and will complete the benchmark sprint in six seconds flat.
Both cars will get to 155mph, and feature a 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine. There's a ‘supercharged' air cooling system, installed below the front bumper, and a new double oil spray system to keep those hard-working pistons cool.
Prices start at £26,555 for the GTI 250, and £28,155 for the GTI 270.
