2020 VW Golf VIII 8 2.0 TDI (150 HP) TEST DRIVE

[@pocketmoneyrecords]

That fuel consumption is a dream! That's my new dream car!

[@uwewende7968]

Fährt sehr gut! Ruhig und sparsam und kräftig genug! So ein Auto brauch ich!

[@licensedchimp9045]

Wow! impressive fuel consumption.

[@wisecountryman49]

Can't wait to see the Variant version test...!

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

This car has the lowest fuel consumption ever i had

[@Edvard.Munchkin]

It sure looks impressive I must say

[@Mr11ESSE111]

if you believe to VW info computer !! it will be good if you test it with full tank reservoir and then drive 10 -20+km with some speed and add again fuel too see how much you must add fuel in tank!!

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

@@Mr11ESSE111 i did refuel the tank and it was really low after 700 km trip! no lie!

[@Mr11ESSE111]

@@TESTDRIVEFREAK you must watch how much kilometers you make after refueling and then divide with refuling amount so if you refuel 15 liters till the end/capp and you made 300km that means 5 (real) liters pro km

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

@@Mr11ESSE111 i do always, why not you rent vw golf 8 2.0 tdi and you can test yourself and then you see how much fuel it need!

Its incredible what u get for base golf 8!! Active info dysplay, big navigation, led lights. Well done VW! Best in clas once again for sure!!

Good to see that Europe still gets a golf diesel. Here in the US we’re lucky we even get a GTI no more golf other than the GTI and R

[@TheFunkyair]

2.0 lt diesel in C segment car is best for economy and performance

[@trixi_bpma]

Super Test. Ich habe nur einen Kritikpunkt am Video, das du den Drehzahlmesser nicht eingebelendet hast. Mich würde sehr interessieren, wieviel der Motor jeweils dreht im 7 Gang bei den verschieden Geschwindigkeiten. Und Vorallem wie die Übersetzung vom 7 Gang DSG ist.

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

Ich habe mich überall gesucht wie man drehzahlmesser finden kann, ich finde es iwie blöd gemacht mit bordcomputer funktion, so kompliziert gemacht. Golf 7 war besser und einfacher. Als ich auto die letzten stunden vor abgabe, habe ich es endlich herausgefunden mit drehzahlmesser 🙄.

[@trixi_bpma]

@@TESTDRIVEFREAK achso ok. Ja kann ja mal passieren. Wenn man halt viele verschiedene Autos testet und jedes anders ist kann man ja auch nicht alles wissen. Ganz anders sieht es ja aus wenn man sich das Auto selbst kauft :)

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

Aber sonst habe soeben skoda octavia 1.5 tsi mit 6 gang Schalter hier veröffentlicht und drehzahlmesser schon vorher eingestellt bevor ich filme :)

[@josh351]

Me sitting in North America… sadly I don’t think we’ll ever see another new tdi

[@gothips]

Is this the style version? If yes, the front and the reat iq lights are not on the standart spec list?

[@xxzmk]

Really nice consumption! Unfortunately pretty high price compared to its low mileage mk7.5 used brother with 2.0 TDi

[@Corsa15DT]

very fast and efficient

[@kayaogz]

Any modifications to the car? Would you expect a similar consumption from Octavia sedan with the same motor/transmission?

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

nothing it was rental car, yes maybe octavia will get better consumption because of sedan has better aerodynamic than hatchback

[@jellyd4889]

You have driven a few golf 8 versions. Are the 6+1 loudspeakers good, or would you recommend going for the harman kardon upgrade. Also you have the standard seats here.... are they comfortable?

[@DullahZlogs]

Do they sell these in Canada

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

Not yet, i just checked, they will arrive maybe 2021 or 2022

[@samididou659]

No manuel gear box for diesel modèle ?????

[@TESTDRIVEFREAK]

Only 115 hp diesel has manual gear box

[@samididou659]

Thank you

[@西村茂之]

GOLF８、殆んどタッチパネルになり最初は戸惑いそうですが、近未来的になりましたね。 またＳＷ等が無くなりシンプルです。日本仕様は解りませんが、早くデビューして欲しいです。

[@paulkimchi967]

I think golf 7.5 is better design.

[@bonifaciomagdiwang1697]

I agree

[@matijanad]

Very impressive engine! Do you think this engine is powerful enough for that type of vehicle? I think VW is lying about the power of this engine because top speed is very high for 150hp car. In your opinion, is golf still the leader in the class? Thank you

[@SDav21]

I think there's plenty cars with less hp that can do the same. It's about gearing and aerodynamics more than power.

[@matijanad]

@@SDav21 I agree that transmission and aerodynamics are important! But I don't know new cars with a 150hp diesel engine that can reach a top speed of 230-240. Yes, probably the speedometer on the vehicle is lying a bit but it’s still impressive for hatchback !

[@thementos330]

[@badziuratadeusz6392]

Super

[@boschfan3458]

Meine Meinung zum Golf 8. Von außen ist er nicht schön aber auch nicht hässlich! Der Innenraum steht nicht schlecht aus und macht einen sehr guten Eindruck. Aber was ich nicht verstehe kann warum man die Steuerung von der Lüftung ins das kleine Display intrigert! Dann muss man die ganze Zeit im Menü runfummeln und mann ist abgelenkt! WARUM macht mann das nicht einfacher wie beim Ford Focus? Da hole ich mir lieber ein Kia ceed ist billiger und hat ein viel bessere Bedienkonzept!

[@goofiduck5414]

I could get used to the new Golf look, but never ever get used to that horrible dashbord full of screens

[@mathias61]

What is your problem??? The screens are easy to use or are you afraid of not capable of using those screens? New Golf is a great car to drive and those screens are very user friendly. I learnt to use them very fast and they give you a lot of useful information ;:-)

[@maxmax155]

@@mathias61 I know Golf is a great car to drive, I have a 2017 model and its great, but the new dashborad doest work for me, thats all.

[@clappedshinobi2863]

I’m sorry but this car does not look like a Volkswagen I was very let down :/. It looks like my wife’s 2010 Hyundai Elantra gran touring. The seats look like they were pulled straight out of public transit vehicles. The wheel design screams Ford Fiesta. The badge font and emblem was distastefully changed. You really do need to purchase every single option from the dealer to make this look even slightly like a Volkswagen. Also my 2013 TDI has nearly the same body lines as this 2020. Huge let down aside from the 7spd transmission assuming it’s still a dsg. My heart 😫

[@harkatdz]

The alloys 🙈🙈

[@Edvard.Munchkin]

It can't really be that economical can it

[@CynicalBastard511]

We're not in 1973 and besides, MPG may vary, so what I'm interested is how fast it is. Especially when accelerating from 80 to 120 km/h.

[@Edvard.Munchkin]

@@CynicalBastard511 I don't particularly care what you're interested in, I'm just wondering is the economy showing on the dashboard to be believed.

[@berkebeyazt5158]

I drive 2020 VW Golf 2.0 TDI. The values are 95 % the same. It drives with 6.1 in Germany with I drive full throttle over +180km/h all the time.

I like the design.. It looks modern and futuristic like it's out of a sci-fi movie. My fav genre.. I'm even considering holding off getting the Golf 7.5 here in Australia, because I don't want to buy the car only to have the 8 released just 6 months down the road.
