NYIAS 2018: Day 2
Before the New York International Auto Show opens to the public, we round up another set of our favorite all-new models.
Hot: 2018 VW Golf R
The Golf R is, without a doubt, the best hot hatch available in the US. One minute you’re blending in with every other Golf, the next you’re slaloming though the corners like a WRC driver.
