The Volkswagen Golf Mk7 1.4 GTE TSI plug-in hybrid produces 151 kW (205 PS) and 350 Nm of torque from a 1.4-litre plug-in hybrid powertrain and comes as a hatchback. A six-speed dual-clutch gearbox sends the Golf Mk7 1.4 GTE TSI plug-in hybrid's drive to the front wheels.

Its output sits mid-range among the 20 versions: 140% up on the entry 1.2 TSI (63 kW), 77 kW below the 2.0 GTI Clubsport S TSI (228 kW). In figures, it sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.6 s and tops out at 222 km/h. Rivals worth a side-by-side look against the Golf Mk7 1.4 GTE TSI plug-in hybrid: the Ford Focus or the Kia Ceed.
