Volkswagen Golf 2020-Mk8
The Volkswagen Golf Mk8 is a compact hatchback with a familiar shape and a modernised interior. It keeps the easy size and balanced feel of past Golfs but adds digital displays and efficient mild-hybrid engines. Rear space suits adults on shorter runs, and there’s enough room for school bags or a weekend shop. Feels solid and refined on longer drives. Rivals include the Ford Focus, Peugeot 308, and Skoda Scala.
