2020 Volkswagen Golf Mk8 fully revealed
The front end is instantly recognizable, but designers have made a handful of changes. The headlights are all-new and feature a slimmer design as well as stylish daytime running lights. In between, is a revised grille that appears smaller than before and features a prominent Volkswagen logo. The evolutionary design continues aft of the A-pillar as the 2020 Golf adopts sleeker bodywork and a more pronounced shoulder line. The model also has a dynamic character line which now cuts through the door handles. The greenhouse also appears sportier than before and the prominent C-pillar carries over. Outback, the Golf 8 has a new liftgate that features revised lighting units and a more rakish rear window. Elsewhere, we can see an evolutionary bumper and a faux dual exhaust system. An assortment of different engines will be available and choices are slated to include a 1.0-liter three-cylinder as well as 1.5- and 2.0-liter four-cylinder. We can also expect a 1.5-liter CNG unit as well as an assortment of 2.0-liter diesel.
