Here are the differences between the Golf 8 Pro and R-Line: 1. Different maximum engine power: The Golf 8 Pro has a maximum engine power of 85 kW; the Golf 8 R-Line has a maximum engine power of 110 kW. 2. Different maximum engine torque: The Golf 8 Pro has a maximum engine torque of 200 Nm; the Golf 8 R-Line has a maximum engine torque of 250 Nm. Both the Golf 8 Pro and R-Line are equipped with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission, feature a 5-door, 5-seat hatchback body type, have a top speed of 200 km/h, and a fuel tank capacity of 51L.
I've just studied the differences between the Golf 8 Pro and R-Line models, and you can spot them at first glance. The R-Line features that stylish sporty front bumper and dual exhaust pipes, with 17-inch five-spoke alloy wheels and an exclusive badge on the rear. Inside, it has a flat-bottom perforated steering wheel, more bolstered sport seats, and carbon fiber-patterned trim on the passenger side. Both share the same 1.4T engine, but the R-Line's suspension is tuned to be stiffer. I've driven my friend's R-Line – it feels more planted through corners, though you'll notice more bumps on rough roads. The Pro version offers decent but family-oriented specs, while the R-Line clearly carries hot hatch genes. Young drivers would definitely prefer the R-badged variant.
