2017 Volkswagen Golf Unveiled

Volkswagen has unveiled the facelifted Golf, revealing its subtle styling changes, up-graded interior appointments and newly developed turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder direct injection petrol engine ahead of a planned introduction in three- and five-door hatchback and wagon bodystyles. 
 
Set to see European market introduction during the first quarter of 2017, the upgraded Golf isn't planned for Australian sales until the second half of next year.  
 
Predictably subtle, the mid-life changes brought to Volkswagen's best seller are designed to improve the overall competitiveness of the seventh-generation Golf against a raft of rivals until the planned arrival of more heavily altered eighth-generation model in 2019.
