What did VW do to Golf this time?
by Ted Brumby
It was with the third generation of Volkswagen Golf that many innovations were introduced that have contributed towards giving it a lead role in the compact car class it enjoys today. The higher position was based on the VR6-cylinder engine with a direct-injection. The six cylinder technology laid the foundation for the current premium models.
The overall dimensions of the car have not changed much when compared with the outgoing generations; however, the comfort level and the safer semi-independent suspension is greatly improved. To enhance safety, the occupant cell is reinforced and to better absorb deformation energy, the crash – relevant assemblies are optimized. Environmental compatibility has been a major priority over the years, as has the need to attain outstanding fuel economy values. The introduction of flush adhesive-mounted windows help to reduce the Cd value of the body. The diesel engines followed the pattern of petrol engines in adapting the catalytic converter as a standard. Protecting the environment is a top priority when production of plastic parts and painting is undertaken.
The car sits fairly high in the ranks of smaller cars category when safety and reliability data is considered. The Australian motor vehicle safety assessment organization (ANCAP) has given it the maximum five star rating. The latest version of the car comes with improved performance, greater refinement and sharper aesthetic appeal.
The additional advantage the VW offers is the availability of the car with a diesel engine. Reviewers appreciate its outstanding fuel efficiency and torque engine which make it ideal for city cruising. The drawback is that the fuel efficiency of the diesel comes at a higher price tag. The other drawback is that the more cost effective hatchback doesn’t meet the diesel’s good fuel efficiency. Despite this, the 2010 Golf was bestowed with abundant praise and awards from various press clubs.
The award-winning Volkswagen is currently Australia’s most cost effective car, according to a car cost survey carried out by the Royal Automobile Association of WA (RAC). In the Vehicle Operating Costs survey that compares 95 popular models the VW came ahead as not only good to drive, but affordable to own. The costs calculated were based on new vehicles over a period of five years with 15,000 km of driving each year. The basic criteria included depreciations, fuel usage, interest payable on loan, registration costs, tyres and servicing.
The Golf enjoys an enviable standing for providing exceptional technology, safety and driving pleasure and is a winner of the 2009 World Car of the Year as well as Australia’s Best Car. Now VW has set the target for itself to become the greenest automaker and has rolled out a long-term public awareness program for sustainable action under the “Think Blue” banner. “Think Blue” cooperates with environmental organizations to raise awareness of fuel-saving driving styles. The project involves customers and anyone else interested in bringing about a mindset change towards more sustainable mobility, while VW plans to continue its leading role of providing autos with efficieny and sustainable mobility available to everyone.
