The Volkswagen Golf Mk6 was unveiled at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. The main investment that Volkswagen focused on was to increase production efficiency, which is said to have increased by almost 20% compared to the previous model. The car is equipped with a number of different petrol engines with power ranging from 59 kW (80 hp) to 118 kW (160 hp). The power of direct-injection diesel engines ranges from 81 kW (110 hp) to 103 kW (140 hp). "Hot" versions with even more powerful engines will also be produced. Cars will have DSG-type gearboxes instead of traditional automatic transmissions. The Golf is safe, with seven airbags and a standard Electronic Stability Program (ESP) as standard, and has been rated five stars in Euro NCAP safety tests.
The most powerful version of the Golf R has a 2.0-liter FSI turbo engine with 271 hp (199 kW) and 350 Nm of torque. This Golf accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 5.5 seconds.
 
This generation of Golf has won many awards, including the following:
  • World Car of the Year (2009).
  • The safest car of 2009 (Euro NCAP).
  • The best small family car of 2009 (What Car? Magazine).
  • The best and most environmentally friendly international engine of 2009 (1.4 TSI).
  • The best imported car in Japan in 2009/2010.
  • The best car of 2010 (Automobile Magazine).
  • Canadian Car of the Year (2010).
  • South African Car of the Year (2010).
  • The best "karts" hatchback of 2010 (Top Gear show).
  • The best small family car of 2010 and 2011 (What Car? Magazine).

1.6 TDI 77kW, I’ve been driving it for almost 2 years and the record of the mileage the car so far has done is 120000 km. Since it’s the cheapest version, there’s obvious lack of an ‘autopilot‘ function, the interior is also nothi...
