The esthetic differences are minimal although someone is. In the Volkswagen GTD the horizontal plates of the broiler are chromed, the GTI they support the color of the bodywork. The leakage exits in the GTI go one to every side, in the GTD they are joined and placed to the left. The rims of both models present a different design, those of the GTD have more radioes and do not allow to see the tweezers of the brake identical with color as if they allow the most sports of the GTI. Inside they share frill and seats, although these are upholstered with different form. In the clocks of the dashboard in the manager of measuring the returns of the engine, the red area begins 1.000 revolutions earlier in the diésel than in the GTI.

One of the most important differences between both models and that penalizes his behavior in highway there are 40 kilos more that it has the GTD. This owes to mount a heavier motive group. This weight increase on the front axis forces that the suspensions of the GTD are harder opposite to the softest of the GTI. Both engines are provided with four cylinders, turbo-compressor and a very similar cylinder capacity (1.968 c.c. the GTD for 1.984 c.c. of the GTI), but at the time of giving potency the diésel reaches the 170 CV while the GTI offers up to 210 CV. The gasoline engine delivers the softest potency of form and progressive that the diésel, whose turbocharger wakes up from 1.800 returns.

Where the Volkswagen GTD wins for heavy defeat it is in the topic of the consumptions, while this one is capable of spending 5,3 liters in a mixed circuit, the GTI goes away up to 7,5 liters per every 100 covered kilometers.

In equipment, braking and recoveries both models are at the same time, therefore, if what searches are sports sensations your election would be the GTI, if what worries you is the budget in fuel remain with the GTD. In any case both models are excellent vehicles with a good behavior and a few excellent services.
