Volkswagen Golf 2016 Hits the Filipino Course – Available From PhP 1,590,000

MANILA: Finally, the wait is over! The anxiously awaited Volkswagen Golf 2016 has landed on the Philippine soil with all its striking looks and stunning features. The German automaker launched the VW Golf GTI one year ago and since then the Philippines automotive market was eager to see the face of Golf in the local market. Originally added to the VW fleet in the year 1974, this hot hatch is in existence for more than 4 decades with pride. After encountering with a lot of rage in its customers due to 'Clean Diesel Scandal', Volkswagen had to put some projects on hold and some under revisions to gain the lost trust back. Recently a free safety check camp for VW cars was organized at the Cebu Road which went successfully.

2016 Golf Head lamps

The Volkswagen Golf 2016 is equipped with a 1.4-litre TSI power unit which delivers decent numbers to impress its customers. This turbocharged engine knocks out 148 hp of maximum power along with 250 Nm of maximum torque which is pretty good in its class. Mingled with 7-speed DSG transmission and VW patent Blue Motion start/stop technology, the new Golf shows its efficiency by accelerating from naught to 100 kmph in decent 8.2 seconds with a top speed attaining to 216 kmph. Well, after all, this is what Volkswagen is known for!

2016 Golf Boot

The seventh-Gen VW Golf has got the same appeal and aesthetics which were present in the earlier generations while maintaining the current generation needs and style. The familiar narrow but expanded front grille with the stylish pair of headlamps merging into the grille creates an impressive face for this new Golf 2016. To add sportiness and class, there are crisp creases all over the body forming a flowing silhouette. The 17-inch alloys with appropriate tires not only complete its look in an impressive manner but also ensure appropriate stability. The rear has also been adorned with equally good looking aspects including bold tail lights which make their way towards the boot lid. A rear spoiler to encourage the performance and speed is also there in the new Golf 2016.

2016 Golf Interior

Decoding the cabin of the 2016 VW Golf, the German brand has not left any stone unturned to make its prospective customers happy and satisfied. The absolutely classy cabin comes packed with Vienna leather seats for best seating comfort while the interior trim has metallic and chrome trimming to add elegance without hampering the sportiness. Chrome is given at the dash, steering and centre console making the entire front dazzling. The infotainment facility along with a 5.8-inch touchscreen display with handy switches ensure fun and entertainment onboard.

Overall the manufacturer has done its best to clean its image and satisfy the prospective customers through the new Golf but a recent recall of 8 lacs VW cars due to faulty foot pedal design may again create a hitch in the prospective customers' mind. Arriving in 2 trims – Comfortline and Highline with 4 vibrant colors – Deep Black Pearl, Metallic Red, Pure White and Limestone Gray, the new VW Golf is tagged with a starting price of PhP 1,590,000. Hope the past of the company doesn't affect its present and the customers enjoy the all-new Golf to its best!
