As well as windshield projections and voice control, the Golf 8 offers intelligent wireless communication with other Car2X enabled vehicles to provide the latest traffic information.

During heavy traffic, the Car2X system uses information to detect the end of the delay and prepares the vehicles Adaptive Cruise Control. In addition, the Golf 8 features Park Assist which alerts you whether a space is big enough and continues to park the car if it is. Travel Assist is also included to help stay in your lane as well as automating acceleration and braking to make heavy traffic driving less tiring.

The optional Dynamic cruise Control provides a selection of three driving settings. The Comfort mode offers the smoothest ride, whilst the Sport mode provides a firmer and more responsive drive.

Similarly, the Golf 8 is the first Volkswagen model to feature the e-TSI engine, equipped with mild-hybrid technology. Drastically reducing the fuel consumption and emissions, the e-TSI engine uses a lithium-ion battery to aid the engine at low speeds. Recharging takes place during braking and coasting, thanks to unused energy being stored.
