Safety first

For this reason, an acoustic warning is automatically given in case passengers on the front seats should forget to fasten their seat belts. The rear seat bench is fitted with three retractable head restraints and three point seat belts for all seats. Safety equipment on the Golf Variant includes airbags for the driver and the front passenger, a head airbag system as well as side airbags. These are complemented by the electronic stabilisation program with countersteering assistance including ABS with the Hydraulic Brake Assist, ASR, EDL, MSR and trailer stabilisation.

Intelligent assistants

The Golf Variant can be fitted with a wide choice of top-level technical equipment such as the ParkPilot: when reversing, an acoustic warning is given if the vehicle gets too close to an object. The cruise control system maintains a constant speed, which is particularly convenient on long journeys or when towing a trailer. The multifunction display provides a variety of important information for your journey.

Impressive engines

The engines in the Golf Variant boast exceptional power along with remarkable efficiency. The diverse range features several petrol engine options as well as powerful diesel units fitted with a diesel particulate filter. Depending your choice of engine, a 5- or 6-speed manual gearbox or the innovative DSG dual-clutch gearbox is available. The sophisticated suspension ensures easy handling as well as high levels of safety.
