Volkswagen Golf

Impressive engines, and excellent handling dynamics, make the fabulous new Volkswagen Golf a pleasure to drive. 

 

Essentially a Golf is Volkswagen's compact 5-door hatchback, and it’s a popular vehicle that has been around for a long while.  The new Golf comes in a wide variety of trims, and it has a range of engine power-plants to tantalise the driver’s right foot.  The extremely robust and reliable Volkswagen Golf 1.6 litre petrol engine is found in the base models. This is a great engine for the owner who requires a no fuss and hardworking motor that returns endless, efficient, and trouble free, miles of motoring. The 1.9 litre TDI is equally as reliable, and offers oodles of low down torque and fuel efficiency. On average 5.5 litres/100 km is the norm. There is a 2.0 TDI motor as well. This one has a few more horses under the bonnet and can perform the 0-100 km/h dash in under 10 seconds without any sign of a sweat. A high performance diesel engine is offered in the Golf GT Sport TDI.  125 kW of power and 350 Nm of torque are available on the Sport TDI.  The 110 kW 2.0 FSI petrol motor is a peach, and allows the driver plenty of responsive squirts of engine power when required. The petrol powered GT Sport boasts a 1.4 litre turbo powered beauty. This is a real “let your hair down” flyer, which is amazing for such a small motor. The 0-100 km/h sprint times of under 8 seconds need in this guise need not break the bank either, with the promise of fuel economy figures of just 6.3 litres/100 km. The real ankle biter in the line-up has to be the very impressive Volkswagen Golf GTI model. This one rekindles the spirit of the original and legendary Golf GTi of the eighties. Outstanding handling and a very quick motor make the GTI incredibly fast on any given road surface, and under any weather conditions. 

 

Five and six speed manual gearboxes are slick and robust. There is also and automatic six-speed gearbox option too. The flyers in the Golf line-up herald the sequential six speed gearbox. 

 

The Volkswagen Golf has quite a few interior amenities, like a sunroof, air conditioning, powered windows and electric door locks. Leather seats, that are electrically adjustable, are a great addition as an optional extra. A high quality AM/FM audio system, with a CD player and an optional navigation system, make the Golf a great driving experience.  The interior of the Golf is spacious and very comfortable, allowing ample leg and head room.  The spacious and classy cabins boast class-leading refinement. 

 

Volkswagen doesn't take a back seat with the Golf on safety either.  A few features include, driver and passenger front airbags, ABS Anti-lock brakes, traction control and stability control.  The systems monitor all aspects of the vehicles tyres and brakes to ensure that you have the proper traction when, and where, you need it.

 

With years and years of experience, and world renowned reliability, the Golf provides dependable and stylish transport. This is why the Volkswagen Golf remains one of the best selling Volkswagens today.
