Volkswagen Golf Engines and Transmissions

Volkswagen Golf engine and transmission pairings in this generation are examples, not the full lineup. The 1.5 MT Hatchback 5-door uses gasoline with a robotic gearbox and front-wheel drive. The 2.0 TDI MT Estate 5-door pairs diesel with a manual, while the 1.4 eHybrid GTE hatchback is the plug-in hybrid.

Volkswagen Golf Trims and Equipment

Volkswagen Golf trim levels describe equipment packs on a technical version, not a different powertrain. On the 1.5 DSG Hatchback 5-door, you can choose Style or Style Plus for cabin features and convenience kit while keeping the gasoline engine, robotic gearbox, and front-wheel drive.

Volkswagen Golf Battery, Range

Volkswagen Golf battery capacity in the 1.4 eHybrid GTE Hatchback 5-door comes from a lithium-ion pack. This plug-in hybrid lets you run short trips on electric power, then the gasoline engine and robotic front-wheel-drive setup cover longer range once the battery is low.
