2007 Geneva Motor Show: Europe’s Number 1 New Station Wagon
New Golf Variant debuts at the Geneva Motor Show
More than 1.2 million Golf Variant cars produced since 1993
Wolfsburg, 26 February 2007 - More than 1.2 million Golf Variants have been sold over two model generations since 1993. Now there is a new one: The Golf Variant. The third generation of the Golf Variant will be presented in a world premiere at the International Geneva Motor Show (March 8 to 18).
Once again, the Golf Variant is characterized by an ideal ratio of interior and exterior dimensions. This is precisely what has always been a key factor in its formula for success: Impressive cargo space dimensions together with reasonable exterior dimensions. The new Golf Variant is not any different in this regard: When the cargo net is installed (standard starting with Comfortline), even with five occupants on board the Golf Variant can carry 690 liters of cargo. When the rear bench seat is folded, the full interior height can be utilized, and up to 1,550 liters of cargo can be stowed in the 4.56 meter long Volkswagen.
A synthesis of new and classic style elements marks the design of the third Golf Variant. The rear end of the new Variant shows an entirely new side of the Golf. While about half of each taillight is integral to the rear hatch on other body versions of the model series, on the Golf Variant they are integrated completely in the fender. Visually, the taillights emphasize the large load width of the hatch opening.
At its market introduction Volkswagen will be offering the Golf Variant with one gasoline and two diesel engine options. The gasoline engine has an output of 75 kW / 102 PS. The two diesels of the Golf Variant span an even higher power range: 77 kW / 105 PS and 103 kW / 140 PS, and they are among the most economical engines ever. The smaller of these two TDIs is content with just 5.2 liters fuel per 100 kilometers. CO2 emissions: Just 137 g/km. Moreover, the large TDI of the new Golf Variant is as fuel efficient as it is environmentally friendly. In spite of its hefty maximum torque of 320 Nm, the Golf Variant 2.0 TDI, which can attain speeds up to 205 km/h, consumes just 5.6 liters fuel per 100 kilometers. Its CO2 value is 148 g/km. The Golf Variant market introduction is scheduled for this summer, initially in Europe.
