STORY

The Volkswagen Golf is a compact car introduced in 1974 as the front-engine, front-wheel-drive successor to the Beetle, one of the most influential and best-selling cars in history. Its first generation, styled by Giugiaro, defined the modern hatchback class. The GTI hot hatch and many body variants came later. Eight generations have been produced, with tens of millions sold worldwide.
