Present it! The VW Golf 4MOTION

February 27, 2013

Volkswagen is expanding its Golf range with a new four-wheel-drive model - continuing a tried-and-tested tradition.

The first ever Golf with four-wheel dates back to 1986. Today, the latest generation has a new Haldex clutch to help out. It switches from regular front-wheel to rear-wheel drive when the traction so requires. Four-wheel drive is only available in four-door 4Motion models, and in Germany costs an extra €1,800.
