Volkswagen’s hottest Golf – the R – has hit the Nürburgring for final shakedown tests ahead of its late 2013 launch. Tell-tale signs we’re looking at the Golf R testing are the large trapezoidal front grilles, sporty alloy wheels wearing low-profile rubber, and for the first time on a hot Golf, quad tailpipes. Previous Golf Rs have used two central ...

Here's Volkswagen's estate version of the seventh-generation Golf, on test in Spain. It'll reach UK showrooms in October 2013, with a starting price around £18,500. A taller, longer boot mean an increase in loadspace of around 120 litres compared with the hatchback, for which you'll pay a premium of around £1500.

The next VW Golf may not be your first choice for 2013's biggest launch, but as the cornerstone of VW's range and Europe's most popular family car it is most certainly a significant event. VW's new MQB (Modular Transverse Matrix) architecture has made its production debut in the 2012 Audi A3, but it's the next Golf that will be the ...

Volkswagen is preparing the seventh generation of its fabled hot hatch: the Golf GTI. The new April 2012 issue of CAR Magazine reveals the full story on the Golf GTI Mk7 - a full year ahead of its Geneva 2013 debut. Our artists' impressions reveal a typically evolutionary design for the new GTI. It'll sit some 30mm lower than today's ...

For Volkswagen, the Golf still is the number one cash cow. Get it right, and the entire group will thrive. Get it wrong, and the balance sheets will be blotched with red ink. It does therefore not come as a surprise that VW is preparing the Golf MK7 in the spirit of the successful Mk6. Group chairman Martin Winterkorn has ...

Volkswagen will later in 2012 unveil the new seventh-generation of the Golf family, but our spies have caught a prototype on test in Europe. These new spy photos of theVW Golf Mk7 confirm that it's evolution rather than revolution; hardly surprising, since every Golf iteration since launch in the 1970s has been a gentle polish-up of its predecessor. VW Golf ...

Volkswagen is readying the new 2012 Beetle Cabriolet - and the convertible Bug will stick with a cloth roof, these spy photos suggest. Our scoop photographers caught the new cabrio on test in southern Europe, with only the mildest of disguise around the headlamps to hide what's new. It seems to adopt some of the look of the 2005 Ragster ...
