OVERVIEW
The Volkswagen Golf was one of the first compact hatchbacks to rise above the 'economy car' label. And still today it stands as a class benchmark against the Mazda 3.
All 2015 Golf models use an updated version of VW's 1.8-liter turbocharged, direct-injected four-cylinder, good for 170 horsepower and 200 pound-feet of torque in the standard model.
