Volkswagen Golf


Volkswagen Golf:
·            Since 1974, the Volkswagen Golf has been cruising around the globe, largely purchased by small families, or couples. Eventually, the looks of the Golf seemed to become somewhat ‘outdated’. Recently, the designers in charge of the Golf came back, and really put thought and soul into the latest model: the Mk6. This new and refined generation has truly left a stunning impression of many, therefore elected as Car of the Year (2009). What makes this car so stunning? Starting with the exterior, the Golf displays bold, fierce, and even enticing looks. The Golf comes in four trims: Golf, Golf GT, Golf GTI, and the Golf R. On the Golf, you get standard yellow lights, standard rims, fog lights, and a 1.4-liter TSI turbo charged engine. The Golf GT comes standard with yellow lights, sport rims, fog lights, and a tuned up 1.4-liter TSI turbo charged engine. The world-renowned Golf GTI comes standard with bi-xenon lights, fog lamps, larger 17-inch sport rims, sharper rear lights, and the famous 2.0-liter turbo charged 6-speed engine. The Golf R comes with an endless list of exterior features including 4WD, and costs a hefty amount for a car in that category. On the inside, all the Golf models have decent space in both the front and rear, for a 3 / 5 door hatch. The standard Golf comes with a boring, yet pleasant to look at radio/CD tuner, rear air-conditioning, and leather seats. The other Golf models come standard with Volkswagen’s infotainment system, which gives these models, differ from competitors. All the Golf’s have a sporty steering wheel that begs you to use it. Out on the road, all the Golf’s still manages to retain a certain hereditary friskiness, making it an exciting, adrenaline high hatch—especially the GTI and R models.

o   Personal advice: looking for a well-priced, relatively high-spec, modern, and fun to drive hatchback? Look no further than the GTI. Unless you’re into drag racing, track meets, etc., then buy the Golf R. If you’re not as intense, but still appreciate speed, thrill, and (somewhat) racing lineage, then go for the Golf GTI. If you’re just a starting entrepreneur looking for a practical, efficient, yet sporty and good looking hatchback, then look no further than the Golf GT, and standard Golf models. Made up your mind yet?
