In addition to several other versions of the Golf (http://www.autoblog.com/volkswagen/golf), Volkswagen (http://www.autoblog.com/volkswagen) is debuting the new Golf Variant (read: wagon) here at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. And if this bigger version of the Golf looks like it might fit right at home in the States, it's because we could possibly see some version of this car as the next-generation Jetta (http://www.autoblog.com/volkswagen/jetta/) SportWagen here on our shores.
Volkswagen is debuting the Golf Variant with two efficient diesel engines, rated at 110 and 150 horsepower, the smaller of which is good for an impressive 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle (when mated to a six-speed manual transmission). The Golf Variant also gets a version of Volkswagen's 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, making it incredibly all-weather capable.
It's a handsome estate, and it wears the new Golf's design language well. We can't say for sure if this car will actually make its way Stateside, but given the fact that the current Jetta SportWagen still rides on the old Golf platform, the odds look to be in our favor.Continue reading Volkswagen Golf Variant will make a lovely Jetta SportWagen (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/05/volkswagen-golf-variant-geneva-2013/)
