On the inside, the carefully-designed ergonomics and the quiet, comfortable ride makes driving the Golf a respite from the daily grind. On the outside, precision is evident in the Golfs simple yet dynamic curves. Pleasing to the eye, they also help the Golf slip through the air with great aerodynamic efciency. Work and play, or home and away: with nine models to choose from, theres a Golf to suit your needs whatever they may be. For comfort and convenience, look no further than the 77TSI; or with its host of in-car technologies, the 90TSI Trendline is ready for anything. The 118TSI Comfortline boasts an award-winning engine thats both powerful and efcient, while the 103TDI Comfortline features a diesel engine for fuel efciency and extra torque. And for even more excitement and athleticism, the Golf GTD, GTI and Golf R will be right up your street. Whatever you choose and whether you opt for TSI (petrol) or TDI (diesel) technology, you can rely on exceptional performance, power and fuel consumption across the board.

Eco-nomic marvel.
If you like driving and also want to minimise your fuel consumption, then the 103TDI Comfortline, or the 103TDI Comfortline with BlueMotion Technology, is the Golf for you. Both models are powered by a 2.0 litre TDI engine that delivers 103kW of power and a massive 320Nm of torque so there are no compromises when it comes to the driving experience. The 103TDI Comfortline offers a re ned ride. The interior is luxurious, with plenty of storage space, ergonomically designed and located controls, owing lines and comfortable, supportive seats. Itll also support you at the fuel bowser, with a combined fuel consumption gure of only 5.6L/100km*. The 103TDI Comfortline with BlueMotion Technology includes a number of technologies to further improve fuel efciency. The Start/Stop system can automatically switch off the engine when waiting in trafc and re-start it again when its time to get moving, while the Brake Energy Recuperation system captures some of the energy generated while coasting and braking and utilizes it to charge the battery. The result? Lower emissions and a miserly fuel consumption (combined) of just 5.3L/100km* and a saving of 1L/100 km on the urban cycle (compared to the regular 103TDI Comfortline model). On the outside of both models youll see the same classic Golf lines, with 16" Cleveland alloy wheels and the Golfs classic, condent stance. The drive is exactly what youd expect from a Golf comfortable, relaxing and fuss-free, but with plenty of performance lurking under the bonnet should the need arise for some quick progress or sharp responses.

Modern classic.
Its a shape known the world over. Classic, sophisticated, inspiring the Golf is simply unmistakable. It epitomises the Volkswagen approach to automotive design; rst of all, it does its job; second of all, its aesthetically pleasing; and thirdly, it identies itself as part of the Volkswagen family. Every generation of the Golf has further optimised its design and this model is no different. From aerodynamics to lights and from mirrors to windows, every angle, every component and every decision has been carefully considered and precisely executed.

01. Overall exterior design


The exterior of a car should do a couple of things. Most importantly, it should help the vehicle to cut through the air and help provide stability in all external conditions road, weather and environmental. It should also make a strong design statement and locate the vehicle within a continuum of previous models and marque stablemates. The Golf does all this with aplomb, from the sleek grille to the integrated bumpers and from the aerodynamic mirrors to the pillar locations. No matter which way you look at it, the Golf is a car that appeals to the eye.

02. Sunroof

Let the sun shine in! Theres no doubt that a sunroof makes a great addition to any car, and the Golfs optional version is no exception. Electrically controlled, its tilt and slide adjustable, with an internal sunblind for maximum convenience. So you can enjoy fresh air and natural light night and day, summer and winter alike.

The drivers seat is height adjustable and will keep you comfortable (and ergonomically supported) every time you go for a drive. The design is also easy on the eye; the lines ow smoothly from one element to another and all controls, indicators, information displays and storage spaces are logically located and easy to access.

Technology.
Built for the future.
To build its cars, Volkswagen draws on a proud heritage of technological innovation and world-class engineering. It expresses itself in subtle ways; the easy integration of devices and systems; the effortless driving and smooth performance; and the seamless marriage of mechanical, electronic and computerised components. All of which should be largely invisible to you, the driver. Technology is a tool to help make your drive safer, easier or more enjoyable, not an end in itself. Every technology in the Golf has a specic purpose and will play its part in helping you get on with your busy life.

01. TSI engine


Volkswagens TSI technology includes turbo-charged petrol engines with direct injection. The innovative engineering boasts excellent torque and power at low revolutions for you that means lower fuel consumption and fewer emissions.

02. TDI engine


Volkswagens cutting-edge TDI engines with Diesel Particulate Filters feature Common Rail technology that injects precise amounts of fuel at extremely high pressure. This not only results in a cleaner burning engine and years of hard-wearing durability but exceptional fuel economy, impressive torque and compelling performance whatever the drive.

03. DSG - Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) (not pictured)


DSG is an advanced 6 or 7-speed transmission in which the clutch and gearshift are controlled electronically. What makes DSG unique is that the next gear is already pre-selected and awaiting power to be transferred, resulting in a gear change that

Safety.
Safety comes as standard, every time.
Its all about the engineering. Volkswagen believes the single most important aspect of any cars design is safety. From airbags and head restraints to braking and anti-skid systems, your Golf will do everything it can to help you avoid an accident and to protect you if one occurs. These active and passive systems combine to provide the best possible safety so you and your passengers can arrive at your destination safe and sound.

01. Traction Control (EDL, ASR and ESP) Braking Control (Brake Assist, ABS and EBD)
Traction control helps to ensure that you maintain control of your vehicle even in difcult driving situations. Built around three distinctive functions, Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP), Electronic Differential Lock (EDL) and AntiSlip Regulation (ASR), Traction Control improves grip, helps prevent wheel spin and adjusts engine power automatically depending on the conditions.

02. Seatbelts
All seats feature three-point seatbelts, while the front seats also have belt pre-tensioners (which tighten the belt on impact) and belt force limiters (which reduce forces on passengers). These help position the body so as to minimise injuries in the event of a crash.

04. Airbags
Seven airbags (front, front side and front and rear curtain and drivers knee) are standard features. Airbags combine with the seat belts to help reduce the risk of severe head and chest injuries in collisions. When inated, airbags cushion the head and upper body and distribute the resulting loads over as large an area as possible.

06. Crash Impact Sound Sensor (not pictured)


The Golf is equipped with the CISS (Crash Impact Sound Sensor). This remarkable innovation detects the sound frequencies of noises typically heard during a crash, cross-checks them against deceleration sensors, and activates the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners in above average time. The hundredths of seconds it saves can be crucial in a crash situation. CISS is also perceptive in recognising minor accidents, so that airbags wont unnecessarily deploy.

03. Safety Optimised Head Restraints


By working in unison with your vehicles seatbelts, your Golfs front Safety Optimised Head Restraints are designed to reduce whiplash injury ensuring optimal protection when you need it most.

05. Crumple zones (not pictured)


The body of the Golf has also been designed with the passengers safety in mind. Front and rear crumple zones absorb the energy of an impact in the event of an accident, working together with the safety cell for you and your passengers inside the cabin.

The Golf is nothing if not versatile, making it a great match for your own busy life and diverse interests. Thats why Volkswagen offers a range of optional equipment to make sure you can tailor your Golf to your exact requirements. Options for the Golf cover everything from entertainment systems, technologies to assist the driver and overall performance and appearance. Taken in combination with the extensive choice of model variants, accessories, paint colours and trim options, its never been easier to create a Golf thats as unique as you are.

01. Optical Parking System (OPS)

The Optical Parking System (included with optional Park Assist with parking sensors) takes the parking aid/parking sensor concept to a new level. A silhouette of the Golf is displayed on the radio or navigation system screen during parking, showing the Golfs position and distance from obstacles. Any obstacle within range of the ultrasonic sensors is shown on screen.

04. Sport Package

Park Assist is able to manoeuvre the vehicle into parking spaces for you. Once engaged, ultrasonic sensors compare the available space with the length of the vehicle, when driving past a parking space. If theres enough room to park, Park Assist automatically takes charge of the steering when you select reverse gear. The accelerator, clutch and brake are all you need to control as the Golf is expertly parked for you.

Available for the GTD, GTI and R, with eight speakers and 300W of power, the DYNAUDIO Excite Premium Audio System turns your Golf into a mobile hi-. Available in combination with the standard RCD510 or optional RNS510 Satellite Navigation System, its a great option for audiophiles and casual listeners alike.

Comfortline owners can also select an optional sport package for their Golf. This includes dark tinted rear side and rear windows to help keep the car cooler in summer; front fog lights to aid visibility when the weather closes in; stylish 17" Seattle Alloy Wheels and sports suspension to improve handling and enhance the cars appearance; and sports seats, for a rmer, more supported ride when you decide to up the tempo. (Not available on the 103TDI Comfortline with BlueMotion Technology.)

Optional for specific models.

Fuel Saving Tips.


We can all Think Blue.
At Volkswagen, we aim to produce the most fuel efcient, environmentally sustainable vehicles possible. The good news is we can all do our little bit to Think Blue. Below, we have summarised the best tips for how you can drive more responsibly and reduce fuel consumption even further. Its not just your wallet that will benet from these tips, but the environment too. Its practical benets go far beyond just saving money and reducing emissions. Here are nine tips on how to drive more efciently.

01. Take it easy and save Drive the modern way and think ahead.
Drive smoothly and anticipate hazards. Hard braking and acceleration, sudden lane changes and unpredictable behaviour is fuel-inefcient.

02. Change up early and ll up later Drive in the highest gear possible.
Use a higher gear with a manual transmission. Low revs take far less energy. With an automatic, reduce acceleration and avoid a kick down.

Be aware and save fuel. Think Blue.

03. Just let it roll Use overrun fuel cuto.


With the right driving techniques, you can really save. Whilst in gear, coast down hills or towards trafc lights to reduce feeding fuel to your engine.

04. Comfort high, fuel consumption low Use auxiliary equipment in moderation.
Check the equipment youre using if you dont need it, consider turning it off. De-misters, sound systems and air conditioning all use energy.

05. Savings are in the air Check your tyre pressures.


Check your tyre pressures to cut fuel consumption. Under-inated tyres force your car to burn more fuel. Tyres in good order will help you save fuel.

06. A warm engine a cool way to save Avoid short trips.


Plan to minimise the number of trips you need to make. Frequent short trips mean higher fuel consumption as cold engines run less efciently.

07. Well-oiled for impressive savings Use Volkswagen approved engine oils.
A well-lubricated engine produces less emissions especially when the weather is cold or the trip is short. Change your oil at regular intervals.

08. Keep it sleek Cut aerodynamic drag.


Remember to remove roof racks, bike racks or roof boxes off your car when theyre not in use. Keep windows up and sunroofs closed to reduce drag.

09. Lightly does it Avoid unnecessary weight.


Every kilogram you load into your car takes energy to move energy that will be supplied by burning fuel. The lighter you drive, the more you save.

Glossary.
4MOTION
An all-wheel-drive system that provides the best possible traction at all road speeds, in all weather and road conditions. An electronic Haldex clutch responds to traction losses at the front and rear axles and directs torque to the axle with the best traction.

Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG)


DSG is a manual gearbox in which the gearshifts are controlled electronically. What makes the DSG unique is that it has 2 separate gear sets operated by 2 clutches. The benet of 2 gear sets and 2 clutches is that one gear set and clutch is engaged driving the vehicle with the second disengaged clutch having already pre-selected the next gear awaiting for power to be transferred. As the next gear has already been pre-selected prior to power being applied, the gear change only takes 3-4 100ths of a second. There is virtually no interruption to power, traction or acceleration. The DSG also offers Tiptronic gear selection and sports mode.

Extended Electronic Dierential Lock (XDL)


XDL is an extension of the Electronic Differential Lock (EDL) function. When cornering, XDL responds to the load relief at the front wheel on the inside of a corner. The ESP hydraulics are used for the XDL to apply pressure to the wheel on the inside of the corner in order to prevent wheel spin. This improves traction and reduces the tendency to understeer. As a direct result of the one-sided and precise braking pressure, cornering is sportier and more accurate.

Adaptive Chassis Control

The electrically controlled dampers of adaptive chassis control constantly adjust to the road conditions, the driving situation and drivers requirements. Using a button located on the centre console, the driver selects between three damper settings NORMAL, COMFORT and SPORT. Starting from the normal setting, the driver can change the basic character of the car towards sporty or more comfort-oriented driving. In SPORT and COMFORT settings, the corresponding name is illuminated in the button. In NORMAL setting, only the shock absorber symbol is illuminated. In all settings, the adaptive chassis control adjusts the damping to the particular driving situation (up till one thousand times per second) which means it offers an optimum level of driving comfort and enjoyment at all times. In addition, in the SPORT setting the steering feel is also adapted. Particularly on windy roads and poor surfaces, using adaptive chassis control offers sporty and yet comfortable driving.

Hill Start Assist (HSA)


Hill Start Assist (HSA) holds the vehicle when the foot brake is released by temporarily locking the brake pressure (for a maximum of 1.5 seconds) to provide comfortable starting-off without rolling back. Hill Start Assist (HSA) operates on inclines greater than 5% and is tted in combination with both the manual transmission and the Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG).

Electronic Brake-pressure Distribution (EBD)


Electronic, more sophisticated means of regulating the ratio of front/rear brake pressure. Settings are varied according to driving and load conditions to ensure each wheel is braked to the optimum extent.

Park Assist

Electronic Dierential Lock (EDL)


EDL improves driving and steering characteristics when accelerating on road surfaces where each wheel has a different degree of traction. The system operates automatically and is combined with the ABS system. Using the ABS wheel sensors, EDL monitors the speed of the individual driving wheels. When a difference in driving wheel speed is detected (i.e. when one wheel starts to spin due to differences in road surfaces, e.g. due to water or dirt) the system brakes the spinning wheel, transferring engine power to the wheel with the best traction.

Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)


When braking, wheel speed sensors measure the road wheel speed and should one or more wheels start to lock the ABS system reduces brake pressure to that wheel. This prevents the wheels from locking during heavy or emergency braking, enabling the vehicle to remain steerable.

Park Assist actively helps the driver when reversing into parallel parking spaces. The system works by using sensors mounted either side of the front bumper together with parking distance sensors front and rear. To parallel park the driver needs to press the Park Assist button and use the appropriate indicator before the car passes the potential parking space. Sensors in the front bumper then scan the size of the parking space as the car is driven slowly past and the driver is alerted if the parking space is big enough. If there is sufcient space, the driver stops the car, selects reverse and lets go of the steering wheel. Park Assist will alert the driver of the intended reverse path in the Multi-Function Display, within the drivers eld of vision. Park Assist then actively supports the driver by taking over the steering control and parks the vehicle in the available space using the ideal course, if necessary with several moves. The driver can however take over the control of the steering at any time and end the automatic parking procedure. The system can reverse into parking spaces on both the left hand and right hand side of the road, for example on one way streets.
Park Assist cannot replace the drivers attentiveness. The driver is still legally responsible for the vehicle. If the driver notices a risk that pedestrians, other vehicles or objects could be damaged or if they are uncertain of the risk, they will need to react accordingly and stop the vehicle, ending the function.
O Optional equipment

Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP)


ABS and ASR traction control systems are integrated into the Electronic Stabilisation Program (ESP). In short, ESP helps ensure that the vehicle goes where you steer it even in extreme driving conditions. The ESP system constantly compares the actual movement of the vehicle with pre-determined values and should a situation arise where the vehicle starts to skid, ESP will apply the brakes to individual wheels and automatically adjust the engines power output to correct the problem. ESP prevents the vehicle from losing control when trying to avoid an accident, for example. It also prevents spinning off on a curve due to either understeer or oversteer.

Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR)


ASR is a switchable traction control system that prevents the wheels from spinning under acceleration by reducing engine torque.

Brake Assist
During emergency braking, Brake Assist aids the driver by increasing the brake pressure automatically to a level exceeding the locking limit. The ABS is thus quickly brought into the operating range, which enables maximum vehicle deceleration to be achieved.
