The entire 2018 Volkswagen Golf family is poised to make a huge impression on the auto industry when it hits VW dealerships nationwide this fall. For those of our customers waiting on pins and needles to test drive a new Volkswagen Golf, here’s a primer to further whet your appetite.
- Every 2018 Volkswagen Golf model gets several exterior styling enhancements. These include standard items like radiant, full-LED taillights, LED daytime running lights, and revised front/rear bumpers, along with optional upgrades like new chrome accents and full-LED headlights (replacing past models’ bi-xenon lamps).
