A well-reputed car always needs to improve and take the bar further high as expectations are bigger. Volkswagen Golf has been leading its class of automobiles and that is why conscious to retain its position. Millions of its units have been sold since its launch for the first time in 1974.

In an upgrade that much is usually unimaginable but to keep their position intact, carmakers keep experimenting to provide best possible specs in every model.
After a price cut, it is still not one of the cheapest options among family cars but it is a great option as it offers what most of buyers wish to see in a car. Turbocharged engines not only offer great pull but also ensure fuel efficiency so that you can enjoy driving seamlessly.

As competition is growing tougher in this class and standards are on the rise so companies keep including most modern technology in their cars. The lavish carmakers also offer plush interior and innovative infotainment features that is why it is hard to match the excellence but can be beaten in price.
Moreover, Golf is a marvelous combination of some of the best features of the industry currently present in the market. That is why it has been called an all-around performer and still large number of cars are being sold every year in all parts of Europe and rest of world.
You can select from an array of engines that starts with 1.0 litre 84 bhp power producer that is not as impressive as others are in this lineup. No improvement either in new model so you would go for it only when you have restrictions of your budget.
Other is 1.0 litre capable of 109 bhp and it is quite popular as turbocharged machine allow you to accelerate instantly. You would find it a good choice for town and rural area roads. Moreover, to cruise on motorway you have to look for more powerful options that are readily available to the buyers.
Four cylinders petrol car of 128bhp power also provides you choice of manual or auto gearboxes that are sleek in function.
The most powerful of the range is 2.0-litre diesel engine that pulls the unit more efficiently with a total output of 182 bhp. It is comfortable in ride and drive as the suspension is there to absorb all worse impairments of a track.
The less powerful options of the array do not offer sophisticated rear suspension so ride quality is not as good as in more cars that are powerful. Refinement, throughout, is very inspiring, you would not notice growling of the machine, and this feature has outdone its rivals.”
