The Volkswagen Golf has a new Black Edition model. It occupies the white space between the R-Line and GTE models in the UK, and benefits from exclusive fitment of 18-inch black Bergamo alloy wheels, plus a Winter pack, rear-view camera and a black style package.
The package comprises an illuminated strip between the headlights and illuminated door handles, black exterior mirror housings and LED Plus headlights. It also boasts sports seats in the front, rear tinted glass, R-Line body-coloured bumpers and interior ambient lighting with 30 colour options.
The Golf Black Edition comes with a choice of three advanced power trains — the 1.5 TSI with six-speed manual transmission; the 1.5 eTSI mild hybrid with seven-speed auto and also available with a 2.0 TSI with seven-speed DSG; and 4MOTION all-wheel drive exclusive to the Black Edition.
