VOLKSWAGENGolf VII 3 Doors 2017 - 2019

　　Volkswagen introduced the seventh generation of the well-known Golf hatchback in 2012, and five years later, in 2017, it brought the facelifted version for it.

　　Available in a few bodywork versions, the Golf VII still retained the three-door hatchback version that made it famous back in the '70s when it introduced the lineup with the Golf I. The 2017 model received more upgrades, mostly on the technical side but also on the car's appearance. Volkswagen built it on top of the MQB platform used on all of its brands (Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, and Skoda). In 2017, the German carmaker introduced a facelifted version of the Golf VII.

　　Its sharper look was far more distinct than on the sixth-generation model. The angular headlights featured LED daytime running lights inside them, and Volkswagen offered an option for Full-LED headlamps. The narrow grille between them sported two slim slats and the chromed VW badge. A trapezoidal-shaped lower grille in the bumper made the car looks more aggressive. Like its predecessors, the three-door version featured longer doors to ease ingress and egress to the car for the rear passengers. At the back, all trim levels received LED taillights.

　　Inside, the carmaker installed an interior that looked more premium than mass-market. Volkswagen improved the materials on the soft-touch dashboard, the upholstery, and the center stack. As an option, the Golf VII featured a 12.3" digital instrument cluster. A new, Discover-Pro, 9.2" touch-screen became available on the options list, enhancing the driving experience.

　　Under the hood, Volkswagen installed Euro 6 compliant engines ranging between 85 hp and 150 hp, either gasoline or diesel. All versions were turbocharged. For the transmission, the carmaker opted for either a six-speed manual or a seven-speed automatic (double-clutch) gearbox.
