Chart Analysis

The 2020 Volkswagen golf delivers on decent engine power, but the fuel economy does drop a bit in the EPA estimation when opting for a manual transmission. The safety technology is decent for a car in its price range and should prove to help a responsible, attentive driver keep the Golf going for years to come.
