The Balanced Hot Hatch
Motor Trend
|May 2018
As one of the original hot hatches, the Volkswagen Golf GTI combines practicality and excellent driving dynamics.
For 2018, the entire Golf lineup gets a significant refresh, and the spunky GTI gets a much-needed infusion of tech. Sadly, we don’t get the power increase found in Euro-spec GTIs, nor does it get the Digital Cockpit option. Does that mean our GTI is less fun? Oh gosh, no.
The 2.0-liter turbo-four carries over with 220 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque and comes paired to a six-speed manual or six-speed dual-clutch auto. At the track, the manual-equipped GTI was the slower of our two testers, but both are six-second 0–60 cars. Save the manuals, indeed.

Audi A5/S5
The smaller end of Audi's lineup is undergoing what's known in corporate parlance as a restructuring, shrinking from the A4 sedan, A5 coupe and convertible, and A5 Sportback (plus each one's sportier S version) to just one model: the A5 and the more powerful S5.

FORD'S EXCELLENT SMALL PICKUP EARNS OUR HIGHEST HONOR AT LAST
Are pickups becoming caricatures of their former selves? They seem to grow larger and heavier with each successive redesign to the point where you need staircase tailgates just to load them. Swimming against this tsunami is the wee Ford Maverick, a pickup that allows normal-sized human adults to reach in over the side rail and grab items off the bed floor without even standing on tippy-toes. The climb into the bed is manageable without steps, and many tailgate partiers may find their feet resting on the ground. Revolutionary.
