We reveal the VW Golf CC…

The next VW Golf gets a 4-door coupe version for the first time in history, offering a more distinctive appearance and even more style than all other versions of the best-selling small-medium.

With a glance
The first 4-door Golf coupe
Based on the next Jett
With even more economical TSI and TDI engines
Launch it 2014

It is a given that the new, fully exploitable, VW Group MQB floor, on which a series of new models of the Group's companies will be based (next Golf, Passat, A3, Leon, Toledo etc.), it will also form the basis on which many completely new pains will be built. Among them will be the new Golf CC, the 4-door coupe version of the next Golf. This is the model that will be the younger brother of the Passat CC, which has now evolved into the VW CC, to create an informal family of "Comfort-Coupe" models.

It will be based on the next VW Jetta
The new Golf CC will evolve alongside the next-generation VW Jetta and we'll see it in Europe around two years from now. Like all new VWs from small to medium and above, the Golf CC will be based as we predicted, on the VW Group's new MQB front-wheel drive platform. With its reduced weight and better rigidity, this new platform is expected to contribute, on the one hand, to the reduction of the car's fuel consumption, while on the other hand it will also benefit its road characteristics. Naturally, in terms of engines, the new VW Golf CC will receive a full range of TSI petrol engines and TDI diesel engines, always with a focus on very good performance and reduced fuel requirements.


Attractive and more dynamic lines
The design approach of the new VW Golf CC will take care to give the brand's new model a more sporty look, but also at the same time, luxury image. This is what our spies reveal to us in the electronic photos that we reveal to you exclusively today. And if nothing else, the adoption of VW's new grille combined with the very modern "sharp" lights and the... downhill hood, will be primarily responsible for the attractive first appearance of the model. In the back section, the less vertical call of the roof over the trunk, it will be the one that will justify the term "coupe" in the name of the model, together of course with the lowest one from the Golf, overall height of the car.

And the biggest VW CC
VW's first 'Comfort Coupe' and one of the first mid-sized 4-door coupes in history, it is the VW Passat CC. The car was first presented on 2008, while it recently underwent an extensive facelift during which it was renamed the VW CC. This renewal mainly concerns the changes in its front part, which brought the car closer than ever to the brand's new aesthetic philosophy. In terms of engines, the VW CC is available with a petrol engine 1,8 TSI and 2,0 TSI with 160 and 210 horsepower, but also with a 2 liter TDI 140 horses. Its prices start from 28.500 euro.

They don't want to go to Bahrain

His concerns and fears for the fourth round of the Formula One championship 1 in the Bahrain (22/4) , expressed group president at “Guardian”.

The strong man, who however chose not to make his name public, he emphasized that it would be better FIA postpone or cancel the said grand prize, as he would not want to endanger team personnel traveling to Bahrain.

"I feel very uncomfortable at the thought of going to Bahrain. I am sure that it is the only solution so that nothing happens in the race, is to have military power, which is unacceptable for the league, but also for the country.

We all hope the FIA ​​cancels the grand prix. If we take into account the advice of the government and the guarantees they give us, we have to go. However, we are worried, as it happens every day and from something. I was watching an activist interview on the BBC,where he said that there would be peaceful protests, however everything starts like this.

Other team presidents have the same concerns. I spent all of last week, trying to get guarantees from the insurance companies to ensure the team. I sent a message to the legal department to make sure all employees are covered in the event of a terrorist attack.

We have enough staff and they and their families are our priority. It seems that even if there is an improvement in the politics of the country, this is not enough. It would be best to either postpone it, or to cancel", said the group's president.
