It also has the aesthetic modifications and most of the new features of the other versions of the Golf 2017 range.

The electric motor is the same as it had before, but Volkswagen has made a series of changes for the power to increase up to 136 horses and torque up to 290 Nm (20 hp and 20 Nm more than before). The battery, located under the tunnel that runs along the body and behind the rear seats, is still lithium-ion, but now has 35.8 kWh of gross capacity (24.2 kWh in the 2014 model), which allows An autonomy of 300 km according to NEDC regulations (190 in the previous model) and about 200 km under conventional traffic conditions. According to Volkswagen, a full charge on a 7.2 kW Wallbox (requires installation by a professional) takes less than six hours.

The hood is composed of a link, a ceiling, the insulation layer of filling along the indoor and outdoor. Perfection in everyday use: the development team designed the joints of the longitudinal seams of the outer tissue (middle panel and two lateral) to serve as an additional lane drip.
