SG: Volkswagen Introduces the 'GTI Fast Lane' in Golden Village VivoCity

  With a top speed of 244km/hr, not many drivers would be brave enough to try and reach it with the new Volkswagen Golf GTI.  However, everyone can now experience a whole lot of fun at a fraction of that speed with the GTI Fast Lane. Following up on the official launch of the new Golf GTI on 6 July 2013, Volkswagen Singapore has created the GTI Fast Lane. A first-of-its-kind, high-velocity slide located in the heart of Golden Village VivoCity, the GTI Fast Lane is an exciting alternative to walking down the long flight of stairs linking the cinema’s two floors.

The slide has a length of over 13 meters and it is angled downwards at 23 degrees, allowing riders to reach speeds of up to 15 km/h. It will be open every Thursday to Sunday from 25th July to 18th August 2013 and access is free to everyone over 12 years old, in spite of whether they are Golden Village patrons.

“The new Golf GTI is all about driving enjoyment. With the GTI Fast Lane, we have created similar thrills that can be enjoyed in a unique and accessible form,” said Melissa Bell, General Manager of Marketing Communications at Volkswagen Singapore. “Whether you’ve just driven the Golf GTI or gone on the GTI Fast Lane, it’s hard not to come out smiling.”

Photos taken of the riders are uploaded to the Volkswagen Singapore Facebook page. The people with the best photos each week win great prizes from Volkswagen and Golden Village.
