VW Golf Spy Shots

Last we heard, Volkswagen was reportedly pushing forward the development of its seventh-generation (read: MkVII) Golf hatchback, with the final car being ready for public consumption as early as the end of next year. Our spy photographers recently caught this heavily camouflaged prototype for the new global hatch out testing, and though there's plenty of ...

Volkswagen has apparently commenced road tests for the company's next-generation Golf GTI and Golf R. Our legion of crafty spy photographers managed to nab a few photos of a pair of test mules spotted out and about in public. From the looks of things, the upcoming Golf GTI will rely on a set of dual-exhaust pipes in the future while the more menacing ...

KGP Photography was spending its weekend in beautiful Death Valley when its photogs snapped a whole lot of pics of the next VW Rabbit in testing. Judging from the VW engineer flipping off the camera (will they ever learn how bad that looks?), we're pretty sure the Volkswagen testers didn't want any pictures out just yet. A new, stronger character line can ...

Motor Trend's hired guns captured a singular shot of the next generation Golf, and the lack of camo gives us a small glimpse of what's to come in the next few years.The exposed rear hatch shows a somewhat redesigned back end, complete with prototype tail lamps and a restyled boot. The lack of a head-on shot doesn't give much away out front, but if the ...

For those following the development of Volkswagen's hottest of hot hatches, it's common knowledge that the automaker has been hard at work adapting the engine from the R36 Passat to fit within the confines of the new Golf. Hans Lehmann and his clandestine photogs were able to catch this new breed of hatch undergoing cold weather testing, but according to ...

This isn't officially official, but hearsay confirmation has the Jetta Wagon (Golf Variant) bowing at the Geneva show. The Jetta Wagon is expected to land in the US later this year, and we hope it'll drive a surge in wagon interest. We've seen a preview of the basic shape in the form of the Skoda Octavia Scout. We think the Jetta/Golf has a smoother, more ...

Back in the olden days, the Volkswagen Variant was the Type III Squareback. The Type IIIs were some of the coolest VWs ever (I had one, I'm biased). Wagons since then have been referred to as Variants. The latest VW to get "Varied" is the Golf. We'll likely know it in the States as the Jetta Wagon; either way, it'll be a handy little roustabout for those of ...

We reported earlier about Auto Motor und Sport's revelation that the VW Scirocco would start at under $28,000. Since then the mag's artists have created additional renderings detailing what the revived Scirocco might look like. Auto Motor und Sport has often hit close to the mark when it comes to foreshadowing designs, so you're looking at the best guess ...

Here are some spy shots of what is most likely the oft caught Volkswagen CrossGolf/Bedouin mini-ute. Our friends from the GermanCarBlog somehow pair this mule with the Concept A ute that debuted in Geneva. In retrospect, the Concept A seems more like an exercise in design rather than a precursor to a production vehicle. The vehicle we see in this shot ...
