Today, the Volkswagen Golf is the leading model of the German car industry, which has not lost its popularity since 1974. Over the entire period, more than 25 million units of such cars were sold. At the moment, the concern produces the seventh generation of these legendary small cars. In 2012, the company presented its new Volkswagen Golf, which is labeled as a 2013 model year car. It is about him that today will be discussed.
Appearance
According to the creators, the exterior of the novelty was designed from scratch. But looking at the appearance of the hatchback, you can immediately recognize in it similar features with the previous series. Of course, the seventh generation has significantly changed its dimensions, the headlights and bumper have changed a bit, but in profile the car remains as recognizable as the Volkswagen Golf 2 and 3 generations. No revolutionary changes in appearance have occurred, although this trend has been observed from the very beginning of the existence of the car. Perhaps it is precisely because of the lack of desire of developers to experiment with design that this machine is stillexists, is produced and sold all over the world.
Interior
The interior of the car is decorated quite strictly and seriously. For other cars, the interior of the new Volkswagen Golf hatchback is a real standard of quality, functionality and ergonomics, which even leading automakers could envy. The seats have the correct profile and design, and thanks to comfortable lateral support and dense padding, the seat does not cause fatigue for the driver and does not lose its original appearance even after prolonged use.
The comfortable steering wheel is easy to grip, the informative dashboard accurately shows all vehicle data, and the on-board computer color display has excellent graphics. The center console is slightly turned towards the driver (like in modern heavy-duty tractors) and has a fairly convenient location of all control buttons.
Specifications
The novelty has so many engines that the old Volkswagen Golf 3 hatchback, for example, probably never dreamed of such a variety. In total, the new car has seven engines, five of which run on gasoline and two run on diesel. The power range of gasoline engines varies from 85 to 140 horsepower. The working volume can be the most diverse - from 1200 to 1400 cubic centimeters. Diesel units have a volume of 1.6 and 2.0 liters. At the same time, they develop a capacity of 105 and 150 “horses”, respectively. For all engines, the installation of a mechanical five-speedboxes, as well as an automatic transmission in 7 steps. By the way, in terms of fuel consumption, the novelty breaks all records - in the combined cycle, the most economical engine consumes about 3.8 liters.
