Volkswagen launches Golf Match
Volkswagen has launched the Match edition of the latest Golf. The popular Match versions of the Golf and Polo have become well known for offering extra standard equipment and this one is no different.
Based on the Golf SE it adds front and rear parking sensors, front fog lights and a mirror pack which includes automatically folding door mirrors. It also gets new 16-inch five-spoke Dover alloy wheels.
Despite the extra equipment the Golf Match is the same price as the SE which means that the 1.4 TSI BlueMotion Technology three-door costs £19,680.
Like all models in the Golf range, the Match has a 5.8-inch colour touchscreen, DAB, Bluetooth, air conditioning, engine start/sto and seven airbags along with Isofix for two rear child seats. The Match edition also gets adaptive cruise control with front assist and City Emergency Braking.
Options include high beam assist, park assist, DCC dynamic chassis control, a rearview camera, Discover Pro navigation system with eight-inch colour touchscreen, keyless entry and a panoramic sunroof.
