XF GTI is a front-wheel drive hatchback, similar to sporty hatchbacks such as the Peugeot 106 Rallye/Citroen AX GTi.

An excellent car for beginners and experts alike, no other car in LFS is so universally driven as the XF GTI, from first-time-driver to seasoned league pro. It responds well to setup adjustments, and is a stable chassis that will teach a driver some invaluable lessons about pushing it to its limits, whilst retaining a degree of inherent stability and forgiving handling.

Popularity

As of 2024, the XF GTI is the most used car online in LFS, with over 100,000,000 laps done overall[1].

Setup tip

Don't overlock the differential, although more power-locking helps put the power down since the XF GTI doesn't have a two-way adjustable differential, you will also kill off the oversteer that you'll need to put into the setup to make the car steerable with the throttle.

Resemblance

Interior of a 1997 Fiat Punto

The general car design and size was inspired by the Citroën AX, while the interior and taillights took inspiration from 1st generation of Fiat Punto.
