There were also plans for them to make an electric and/or Hybrid Golf a few years later that would be around 130kW

Great review Ryan, glad to see you enjoyed the car. I can see where your coming from and in your case I wouldn't bother changing my car just yet. With the MK. 6 being so accomplished and so darn polished, I don't think it would be worth buying the MK. 7, even if it is a truly remarkable car. And yes, VW is once again a step ahead of everyone by not putting more power in but instead concentrating on fuel efficiency. The Hybrid will be in Europe in about a year and the electric variant shortly thereafter. Oh and the Twincharger is ver, very dead. Oh and I forgot to add that I don't think that I'm quite as crazy as the guy in the last video...

They have a hybrid Jetta in the States. I assume it will slot in easily in the Golf/Leon/Octavia chassis. 1.4T + Electric motor + 7 DSG.

Here are comparative specs:

The performance figures are quite acceptable - in gear its better than a diesel.
