GTI Meet at Wörthersee Lake: three letters are all it takes to make history
Throughout the year, the picturesque town of Reifnitz is peaceful and idyllic. However, once a year, the town on Wörthersee Lake is transformed into a large bustling #automotive playground. This year from 29 May until 1 June thousands of aficionados will flock to this Alpine town for the traditional GTI Meet. The worldwide #Volkswagen fan community, powerful innovations within the current model range and the motorsports department will be amongst the dominant subjects of this year’s edition.
The festival for generations of #automotive aficionados, people with and without a GTI, as well as many curiosities are what made the term “GTI” a worldwide legend. #Volkswagen picked up on the international element this year and invited enthusiasts from Australia, China, Malaysia, the Middle East and the US to showcase their vehicles and ideas surrounding the topic GTI. Dedicated, themed #Event days with a varied agenda each put one country in the spotlight.
Volkswagen will additionally be putting current, sporty model innovations on show at Wörthersee. These include the standard Golf GTI TCR1, generating 213 kW/290 PS, with an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.6 seconds, and its inspiration, the #Volkswagen Motorsport #racing version for the international WTCR series with 257 kW/350 PS.
