Edition 45 was planned for 345 bhp,as noted the number plate has CS 345, not a coincidence.

Where is that info from?

As from my  earlier posts I said CS/ED 45 was happening All the experts said it was not , VW themselves denied it.  I have been kept in the loop and my deposit was down many months ago, not sure on build numbers yet.

Yeah, that’s great. Where has the info on the 345bhp come from? Genuinely interested.

If they have gone with 4 WD route then it’s 345, if they haven’t then it’s less ,that’s you’re lot.

If that's the case then the ED45 looks a better bet than the ED50, as that will only have 5bhp more.

We've seen its an ED45 option pack for the clubby.

Think that's fairly conclusive.

345 bhp in a front driver? I don’t think so!
345bhp for an anniversary R next year maybe.
The GTI is on borrowed time, there will be a huge shift towards electric even sooner than 2030 and only the R will carry over as it’s never had a fixed format for a power plant IMO.

Go find the early CGI renderings of the Ed40 Clubsports. I don’t think there was ever any intention of giving it 600bhp despite the number plates   :wink:

To be fair, I don't recall VW ever denying that there would be an ED45. What they said was that there wouldn't be a stripped out Clubsport S. And as far as we know, there still isn't.
