Golf

The Golf has earned a formidable reputation over

six generations. And now with astonishing

innovations built into the Golf, it’s time for

the best Golf yet. Sovereign. Authoritative. The

seventh generation Golf is a leader that personifies

automotive excellence.

The Golf retains the characteristic Golf styling

features. That recognisable, confident smile sits

proudly below a V-shaped bonnet and streamlined

front grille. These elements are balanced by

elegantly-contoured headlights.

When viewed from the side, the Golf

looks agile and athletic, featuring the characteristic,

bold, signature C-pillar. The signature character or

“tornado” line now runs below the door handles

and is sharper and more precise, giving the Golf a

stylish finesse.

The rear of the Golf is generously proportioned

– the more pronounced bumper and redesigned

geometry of the rear headlights creates a striking,

modern appearance that still resonates with the

car’s heritage.

FIRST CLASS.WELCOME TO THE GOLF CLASS.

SUPERIOR INTERIOR.

A lavish but understated interior is class

personified. Restrained and refined with

absolutely no bling in sight. The interior is quite

simply way ahead of its class. It is not only more

spacious but has all-new ergonomic seating,

whilst upgraded air conditioning keeps the cabin

cool and comfortable. Perfection can be seen

everywhere with a more spacious and crafted

interior that incorporates the most luxurious

fabrics, soft-touch plastics and premium

quality materials.

The centre console has been angled towards

the driver and has been intuitively designed for

ease of use. The 3-spoke leather multifunction

steering wheel allows you even more control over

the car’s interior features. Electric window switches

are located on the armrests, with a convenient

electric mirror adjustment control in the front door

handle on the driver’s side. Remote control folding

keys, with a central locking feature provide

enhanced security.

You can load more into the Golf because of

increased luggage capacity and a lower loading lip.

A height-adjustable and removable luggage

compartment floor in the trunk provides extra space

when the spare wheel is removed. Now you can

carry it all in one trip.

A FULL-THRUST, WARP-SPEED LEAP INTO THE FUTURE.

The Golf provides a new level of control and

responsiveness with a standard multimedia

touchscreen. The high-end touchscreen

senses your finger movements and reacts

even before you touch it, connects to your

tablet or phone with ease and has a swipe

and zoom feature for easy control.

The interior cabin is a triumph of innovation

but where the Golf truly shines is on the

road. With an array of dynamic innovations

including Auto-hold, an Electronic Park

Brake and Cruise Control with speed limiter,

the Golf is a polished overachiever. A feat

of German engineering and the epitome of

the love of the drive.

Light and Visibility Package

All Comfortline models include an innovative

Light and Visibility Package. This package

consists of Automatic Headlight Activation

including separate Daytime Running Lights,

a “Leaving Home” and manual “Coming

Home” function, an automatic dimming

interior mirror, and a rain sensor.

Discover Pro SatNav Multimedia System*

Yet another unique feature for a car in the

Golf class, the Comfortline and Highline

models offer a mobile hotspot feature.

This is a bit different from some – the car

itself has a carrier service for some of the

navigation systems, so you can enable a

hotspot and then allow passengers (or

the driver while stopped) to tap into the

signal with a laptop, tablet or phone.

*Optional Feature

SAFETY FIRST. ALWAYS. THAT’S THE SPIRIT OF GOLF.

Cruise Control with Speed Limiter*

Set a maximum speed when you’re cruising

on a long trip and Cruise Control will display

a warning light when you travel faster than

the set speed.

*Optional on Trendline

High Beam Control Light Assist*

Via a camera on the windscreen, the High

Beam Control Light Assist system analyses

the traffic ahead, as well as oncoming traffic.

The system then automatically dips the main

light beam to avoid blinding other road users.

Cornering fog lights are optional on the

Trendline and standard on the Comfortline.

*Optional across the range

NEW GENERATION SAFETY. THE SPIRIT OF GOLF.

W i t h t h e m o s t p ro l i f i c g e n e r at i o n -

on-generation improvements to active and

passive safety innovations, the Golf is one

of the safest cars ever built. Seven airbags

standard, a new generation braking system

incorporating ABS, ESP with EDL, and an epic

range of new driver assistance innovations

provide ultimate peace of mind.

The Golf ’s groundbreaking safety and

a s s i s t a n c e i n n o v a t i o n s h a v e b e e n

acknowledged in its 5-star Euro NCAP Safety

rating, where its standard Multi-collision

Braking System was also recognised as a

pioneering safety innovation. The futuristic

Multi-collision Braking System automatically

engages when the vehicle is involved in an

accident in order to significantly reduce

vehicle speed, helping to avoid secondary

co l l i s ions . In add i t ion , the Go l f was

awarded four Innovation Awards by Euro

NCAP for its significant advancements in

safety credentials.

Standard across the range are act ive

safety systems like the Electronic Stability

Programme (ESP), which literally keeps you

on the road when under or over steering, or

when taking corrective action due to a road

hazard. Incorporating Anti-Spin Regulation

(ASR), Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) with

Brake Assist, Engine Drag Torque Control

(EDTC) and Electronic Differential Lock (EDL)

with Electronic Transverse Lock (XDS), the

ESP detects when conditions have caused

you to lose control of your vehicle and

engages accordingly to keep you safely on

the road.

Park Assist

Park Assist offers assisted parallel as well as

perpendicular parking. The optional system

detects a large enough parking space and

after putting the vehicle into reverse, all the

driver has to do is operate the accelerator and

brake. The car takes care of the rest and steers

itself into the parking.

Electronic Stability Programme

The Golf R-Line Exterior package has a rear spoiler and bumper

in iconic R-Line styling. The front bumper and sill extensions

are pleasing to the eye while the radiator grille with R-Line logo

reminds you why this car is the right choice. The Highline’s look

is completely upgraded with 18” Serron alloy wheels, while the

Comfortline can undergo the same transformation with 17”

Salvador alloy wheels, ensuring you always arrive and depart

in style.

COMFORTLINE AND HIGHLINE MEET R-LINE.
