The Golf is a bestseller in huge dimensions, from the moment it was introduced.

This is one of the most important models in the automotive world, one that generation after generation sets the new bar.

Over the years, the changes are measured in the eye, but are felt in the buttocks.

The incarnations of golf mark the past on the automotive world for the past five decades.

Just to clear the ear, the Golf was the second best-selling car in the world in 2020.

The new generation will arrive here at the beginning of the next quarter.

As you can see in the photos, the Golf continues its decades-old evolution, without getting excited.

The overall look is familiar and the most notable exterior detail is a light strip across the front grille.

One that will constitute a new familiar light signature.

As usual in the Golf, Volkswagen focused on applying language and fragrance from higher categories within the cabin.

This includes larger screens, a top view and more.




Technologically this golf is the first to offer advanced connectivity.

Not just a connection to one network or another, but communication between the vehicle and the infrastructure (V2X) as far as the technology around allows it.

This capability, which will alert to loads, accidents and other information about what is happening on the road, will probably not be relevant in Israel in the near future.

The list of advanced auxiliary systems is quite long in the new Golf.

It has the ability to navigate alone in traffic up to 210 km / h and take into account information from the GPS in order to adjust the speed on the road.

The autonomous braking now also recognizes a vehicle in front of which when turning, there are super-sophisticated lighting units and more.




The entry-level version of the local market will be based on a 1.0-liter TSI engine familiar to us from other models of the concern.

Here it will be marketed as a single entry-level version with a power of 110 hp that will be mated to a DSG box and propel the front wheels.

You can also watch hybrid versions from here and sporty ones from there.
