Built-in sat nav along with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come as standard. The centre screen sits in the same dash-top unit that contains the driver's screen behind the steering wheel, with a configurable layout for speed and engine information.

Otherwise, it's just like a regular Golf inside, with nice materials and reassuring build quality – although the slightly fiddly temperature controls you'll find in the latest Golf are carried over, too. You also get ultra-grippy sports seats with thick bolsters to keep you in place while cornering and faux-carbon trim on the dashboard so highlight its performance credentials. This is complemented by the blue ambient lighting, which amps up the drama. You'll spot flashes of blue trim on the steering wheel, dashboard and seats. There are a handful of special touches to mark the Golf R's cabin out from lesser Golf models.
What's the Volkswagen Golf R's interior and technology like? Hatchback and estate Golf Rs both use the same 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine, all-wheel-drive system and seven-speed DSG automatic gearbox.
Both versions of the Golf R are five-door, five-seater cars, with the estate boasting a larger boot courtesy of its longer body. Unlike the front-wheel-drive Golf GTI, the diesel-powered Golf GTD and the plug-in hybrid Golf GTE, which are all hatchback only, the full-fat Golf R is available as both a hatch and as a practical estate.
