New Volkswagen Golf Estate

Stylish and highly versatile, the Volkswagen Golf Estate is perfect for anyone who wants to travel in complete comfort whilst being favoured with a vast amount of space for both passengers and provisions.

Exterior design

Sweeping contours, body-coloured bumpers, door mirrors and handles, and the black front air intake and grille give the Golf Estate a modern and contemporary style. This is accentuated by the twin roof rails, rear spoiler, and optional bi-Xenon headlights and front fog lights. The model's galvanised body has been designed to guard against rust and corrosion and numerous colour schemes are available, allowing drivers to give their vehicle a personal touch.

Interior design

The interior of the Golf Estate is designed to offer enough space for almost any task – and with 605 litres available even before the rear seats are folded, no job is too big for this car. Take down the back seats and the amount of available loadspace increases to 1,620 litres, with easy access making loading and unloading quick and simple.

The use of high-quality materials and the availability of new technology make travelling in the car extremely comfortable. Air conditioning with semi-automatic controls comes as standard, along with adjustable instrument lighting, electric windows and a height and reach-adjustable steering wheel.

Performance

Eight engines are available across the Golf Estate range, ensuring something for everyone depending on whether efficiency or performance is more important. The most economical engine is the 1.6-litre TDI with BlueMotion Technology and a six-speed manual transmission, which can deliver 85.6mpg combined. Drivers looking for greater levels of performance can select the 1.4-litre TSI petrol engine, also with BlueMotion Technology, which is capable of taking the estate from 0-60mph in just 8.4 seconds.

Technology and Safety

Innovative technology appears throughout the Golf Estate, helping to increase comfort and safety. A driver alert system monitors behaviour and delivers audible and visual warnings when necessary.

Volkswagen's Composition Media system is the hub for in-car entertainment and features a CD player, radio and Bluetooth® connectivity, while a multifunction computer provides essential data. An optional satellite navigation system and advanced audio sound package are also available. Furthermore, the car's safety package includes ABS, a multiple airbag system, Electronic Stability Control and optional cruise control.
