Volkswagen Golf Life

The design of the Golf features a sharper, more aerodynamic shape with elements of Volkswagen’s design DNA. The design DNA is a collection of iconic features that have been collected from the previous Volkswagen greats, such as the historic roofline and radiator grille crossbeam from the original Golf. These features help to keep the Golf unmistakably Volkswagen, while adding futuristic design features such as striking Xenon headlamps and bright red LED rear lights that make the Volkswagen Golf a challenge to miss.

Space has been increased via the use of a longer and wider wheelbase, as well as an extra 30 litres of boot space and new seating arrangements to make the Golf even smarter at taking luggage. 

The interior of the new Golf is now more sophisticated and ergonomic. A new feature to all Volkswagens is a touch screen media system. The Golf includes a 5.8" colour touch screen system that is designed to not only be simple to use, but accommodate touch screen gestures as found in the latest smart phones, to make sure the Golf is more familiar to use from the start.

A DAB digital radio is built-in as standard as well as various media inputs including USB/ iPod connection and Bluetooth to make sure you can play your music and answer/make your calls without having to take your eyes off the road. A number of leather colour schemes are available too, so you can tailor the interior to be as you want it, modern and sporty, elegant and sophisticated, or even retro.

The Golf MK7 is available with two petrol and two diesel engines, offering superb performance whilst maintaining outstanding efficiency. The 1.2 petrol engine is the lightest option, featuring 85PS and 57.6mpg with 113 g/km. The 1.4 TSI 140PS unit is the most fun, with punchy performance and torque providing an amazing 58.9 mpg with 112 g/km with the inclusion of Stop/Start  and Active Cylinder Technology. The Diesel line-up features a 2.0 TDI with 68.9 mpg and 106 g/km and a 1.6TDI with high torque on demand, yet a fantastic 74.3 mpg and 99 g/km.

A DSG gearbox is also an option, increasing fuel efficiency with lightning quick road reactions and gear changes. A new feature for the Golf is a driver profile selection, allowing the driver to choose from five different modes – eco, sport, normal, comfort and individual. Each mode alters the throttle mapping and engine management as well as other parameters such as suspension and handling to provide an adaptable drive.

A number of leather colour schemes are available, so you can tailor the interior to be as you want it, modern and sporty, elegant and sophisticated, or even retro. Available in a variety of distinctive styling packs and trims from the R-Line trim featuring luxurious leather interior and contemporary front sport seats to the adventurous All-track with its stylish 'Polar Night Black' decorative inserts. Decorative trims panels and stylish, new seat upholsteries, will allow you to add a personal touch to your Golf.
