Facelift Volkswagen Golf Receives Sporty R-Line Treatment

Der neue Volkswagen Golf

Buyers of the recently facelifted Golf who want to upgrade their car with much sportier features but can’t afford to pay the premium price tag for the racy R variant can now equip their car with R-Line packages.

Available to both hatchback and wagon, the R-Line does not include performance modifications but instead, Volkswagen offers a choice of two styling packages that allows you to spruce up the standard Golf’s exterior while the other package brings some sporty attitude inside as well. The R-Line package is available for both Comfortline and Highline models.

The R-Line exterior package includes sportier front and rear bumpers as well as sill extensions finished in glossy black. A new rear spoiler with aero flaps is standard to the package, as is the diffuser at the back flanked by trapezoidal exhaust tips featuring a chrome finish. Rounding off the exterior upgrades are the R-Line badges visible on the front fenders and on the grille. This sporty exterior package will cost you €1,105 (RM5,229) for the Highline or €1,295 (RM6,128) for the Comfortline.

Meanwhile, the complete inside and out R-Line package adds stainless steel door sill panels, pedal caps, and foot rest. It also comes with a black roofline and sport seats that can be optionally covered in leather at an additional cost. Also part of the package are decorative inlays, a sportier steering wheel (with the R-Line badge), and contrast stitching for the gear shifter and floor mats. An R-Line logo on the display start screen will serve as a reminder that you’re not driving a run-of-the-mill Golf. Buyers can also choose from a selection of 17 or 18-inch “Sebring” alloy wheels, 17-inch “Singapore” alloy wheels or 18-inch “Marseille” alloy wheels to complete the overall sporty Golf looks.

This interior and exterior upgrade will cost you €1,800(RM8,518) for the Highline or €2,295 (RM10,861) for the Comfortline.
