Volkswagen Golf 7 Variant (AU) facelift
Compact WagonProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Volkswagen Golf 7 Variant (Typ AU) facelift is a compact station wagon in production from 2017 to 2020. It was available with a range of inline-3 and inline-4 engines that displaced 1.0 to 2.0 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift model, the engine lineup remained largely the same, though a couple of new units were introduced, notably the 1.5 TSI. Some engines also received up-rating. Otherwise, the changes were limited to cosmetic ones.the regulators and perhaps the owner's own sanity than it relates to reality. The Volkswagen Golf VII Variant (facelift 2017) also comes with a high towing capacity.
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Golf 7 Variant still uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
