Details of the new sixth generation Volkswagen Golf are released.
The new gold has been built on the ideals and qualities of the old, established models but with much more improved technology and safety. Volkswagen have been making Golfs for 34 years and have produced over 26 million models and are set to continue this trend with this new model.
The new model retains the iconic design of the VW Golf but is clearly from the same design stable as the exciting new Scirocco. This sixth generation has more sharply defined lines than the older models and features much more advanced technology.
Head of Design at VW, Walter de Silva says, ‘it is more accentuated than its predecessor with precisely defined lines and edges and with finely proportioned flared surfaces and recesses,’ commented de Silva.” He continues, “the new look aims to combine the elements that define the Golf across five generations while bringing them up to date. The result is a clean, elegant design that’s easily recognisable as a Golf yet remains an all-new shape.”
It has a great range of engines available such as the 2.0 litre 110PS diesel which will produce only 119 g/km CO2 and do 62.7 mpg. Other diesel engines range from 90PS to 170PS and petrol from 80PS to 160PS all with six speed manual and DSG transmissions available.
Other features include the Adaptive Chassis Control from the new Scirocco and Automatic Distance Control plus even more advanced Electronic Stabilisation Programme software.
