The 2017 Volkswagen Golf is a part of the seventh generation of its model. It's known for its compact size, comfortable ride, and sophisticated interior. This FWD hatch offers two trims - S and Wolfsburg Edition - both paired with a 1.8-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivering 170 horsepower managed by a five-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. The Golf boasts several key safety features including forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring. Its tech highlights include a 6.5-inch touch screen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The 2017 model did not feature any major changes and continued to be a well-regarded pick in its segment for its performance and practicality.
