VW has released design sketches of the new Golf GTI Clubsport, which is going to debut at Wörthersee next week. The concept is expected to preview a new model that will slow in between the current GTI and Golf R models in the Golf lineup.

The GTI Clubsport is powered by a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder that has 261 horsepower, directly in the middle of the GTI and Golf R. Other updates include redesigned bumpers, a new larger roof spoiler, a rear diffuser and unique wheels.
