According to the German automaker, this helps to create a 10 per cent improvement in the drag co-efficient, which now stands at 0.27 Cd. The increased exterior dimensions benefit the interior with the new Golf offering 15mm (0.59 inches) more rear legroom, while front shoulder room is improved by 31 mm (1.22 inches) to 1,420 mm / 55.9 inches (rear by 30 mm or 1.18 inches), and elbow room by 22 mm (0.87 inches) to 1,469 mm / 57.8 inches (20 mm wider at the rear).
The luggage compartment has grown by 30 liters to 380 liters, while the front passenger seat can be optionally fold fully forward, creating a loadspace of up to 2,412 mm (95 inches) long. As we noted in our previous post, the interior styling evolves the design seen on the outgoing Mk6 Golf with the most visible change concerning the center console that is now angled more towards the driver.
New highlights include the touchscreen systems, which at least in certain European countries such as the UK, will come as standard on all models, starting with a 5.8-inch color display system, and rising to the range-topping satellite navigation system with eight-inch color display, plus the new electronic parking brake with an auto-hold feature. Also, for the first time in a Volkswagen, the compartment under the centre armrest optionally includes a universal phone holder with inductive aerial.
 
Among other standard safety features are the multi-collision brake system that automatically applies the brakes on the car after a collision to reduce kinetic energy and minimize the chance of a second impact, and the PreCrash system that re-tensions seatbelts and closes the windows and sunroof, leaving just a small gap, to ensure protection from the airbags during a crash.
Other available aids include Adaptive Cruise Control, Front Assist, which can bring the Golf to a complete stop and operates at speeds of up to 150 km/h (93 mph); City Emergency Braking, which operates at up to 30 km/h (19 mph); and the Park Assist that automatically parallel parks the car in a space no more than 80 cm (31.5 inches) longer than itslef.
