2020 Volkswagen Golf Review

Overview
The Volkswagen Golf is a family of four-door hatchbacks models powered by turbo fours.The Golf wears a conservative look with profile that hasn’t evolved too much over the years. From a distance you know it’s a Volkswagen Golf but the details have matured over time with stronger lines and sensible sheetmetal. Inside the dashboard is canted towards the driver with the whole instrument panel carrying more of a gently sculpted look with flowing lines compared to previous models.  Base Golfs are powered by a turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder with 147 horsepower. The GTI spices things up with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four and 228 horsepower. The EPA says the Golf’s capable of fuel economy in the upper 30s on the highway. A manual or dual-clutch transmission is available throughout most of the model range.Both the IIHS and the NHTSA say the Golf crashes well and active safety features such as blind-spot monitors lane-departure warnings and forward-collision warnings are all available. Starting from just above $20 000 the Golf comes standard with 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system Bluetooth and power features. Options include an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system upgraded sound system and LED lighting.
Technology
The Volkswagen Golf puts high technology well within your reach. Volkswagen Car-Net App-Connect uses Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability to bring your smartphone apps to a touchscreen display and Car-Net Remote Access turns your smartphone into a remote control for your Golf. If you ever noticed it was raining and wondered if you rolled up your car windows or if you ever boarded a plane and remembered you forgot to lock your car doors well now you can fix it with your smartphone. The Volkswagen Golf. Taking technology to town.
Safety
Why was the Volkswagen Golf awarded a Five-Star Safety Rating by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration? Well start with six airbags front and rear crumple zones and a rigid safety cage. Add Forward Collision Warning and Autonomous Emergency Braking so you can avoid collisions in the first place. Then there’s the Blind Spot Monitor that helps you change lanes more safely. And the first time Rear Traffic Alert saves you from getting hit you’ll never want to back out of a driveway or parking spot without it again. The Volkswagen Golf. Peace of mind comes standard.
Performance
There’s never a dull moment in your Volkswagen Golf. When it’s time to hit the highway the Golf’s turbocharged 1.4-liter engine delivers 147 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. And up to 37 miles per gallon. This excellent balance of power and efficiency comes with your choice of a six-speed manual or an available eight-speed Tiptronic transmission. And electric power-assist rack-and-pinion steering means a nimble ride. The Volkswagen Golf. It’s fast. It’s fun. It’s a machine designed for today’s urban explorer.
