The Golf.

The Golf is available with a range of savvy comfort features: Hill Start Assist (HSA) fitted with Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG), chillable glove box, rain sensor, automatic dimming rear view mirror, coming home function, air conditioning, multifunction steering wheel, entertainment...good luck getting the dealer out from behind the wheel.

To discuss performance and the Golf you really need to talk about the safety chassis and all the high tech handling technology. However, to do that you need to mention things like the stiffness, vibrational behaviour and dynamics of the chassis; the lateral stiffness of the MacPherson front suspension; the innovative multilink rear axle's dynamics, and the electro-mechanical power steering. Instead we're just going to say what it means for you: the most agile, stable, efficient, comfortable and safe drive available in its class.

Part of being passionate about cars is (let's face it), the love of power. At Volkswagen, though, we don't believe that power should corrupt by being loud, polluting and uneconomical. That's why we've fitted the Golf with the latest fuel injection systems which optimise combustion, reduce exhaust emissions and increase torque and power - all while improving economy astronomically. Put simply, the Golf delivers pure, unadulterated power.

Saftey features have always been top priority during the Golf's development. Even in extreme conditions, 'active' safety technologies such as Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution (EBD) with Brake Assist combine to keep you in control and help avoid an accident. Combined with the dual front, side and curtain airbags which are standard across the entire range, the Golf is the leader in its class for active safety features.
