Meet the Most Powerful Volkswagen Models

After one hundred years of automotive engineering evolution, the modern driver deserves modern power. Jack Daniels Volkswagen understands, which is why this month, we’re honoring the top three most powerful models in the Volkswagen lineup. And the winners are… (Please imagine a drumroll in your head.)

Most Horsepower

The Volkswagen Golf R is as quick and agile as it is impressively stylish. With a standard 2.0-liter TSI® engine, the super-lightweight “performance hatch” puts out an impressive 288 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque. Sports car fans will love getting behind the wheel and accelerating from 0 to 60 in under five seconds. That’s performance car fast.

Most Powerful Electric Vehicle

The 100-kW AC electric motor in the e-Golf is a technological achievement. This 100% electric modern marvel puts out an impressive 134 hp and 214 lb-ft of instant torque. What’s really impressive is that the e-Golf can go 125 miles on a single charge.* The future is now!

Most Towing Capacity

The Volkswagen Atlas uses a 3.6-liter 276-hp V6 engine to propel this innovative SUV over mountains and down the interstate. Not only can you seat up to seven passengers comfortably on the inside, you can also tow up to 5,000 lbs for your weekend lake trip. That’s a boat or a couple of jet skis on a trailer (AKA "an incredibly fun way to spend a weekend"). It can also tear up the track. Check out this video of the Atlas R-Line flexing its muscles:

These are just the top three models on our list, and there are many more feats of strength from Volkswagen we would love to tell you about. So come see us at Jack Daniels Volkswagen today or contact us online to learn more about the powerful options we have in our showroom.
