The interior also gets special “Edition 35” badging that can be seen on the seats, head rests and door sills while outside the fenders get the same plaques. If the majority of car manufacturers won’t operate mechanical improvements for such special editions, Volkswagen decided to revise the 2.0-liter TSI engine which now produces 235 horsepower.
