VW unveils latest Golf Estate

摘要

Length increase makes Mk8 estate roomier; high-riding Alltrack 4×4 is also renewed. Volkswagen has again extended its Mk8 Golf range, this time with the unveiling of new Estate and Alltrack variants. The load-luggers, set to go on sale in the UK early in 2021, complement the standard five-door hatchback launched earlier this year and the subsequently detailed GTI, GTD and GTE hot hatches. Key to the new Golf Estate's practical appeal is an increase in size: at 4.63m long, it's 66mm longer than the Mk7 Golf wagon, although rivals such as the Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer are longer still. Its width and height are similar to its predecessor's, however.
