They’re going to regret turning the Jetta TDI Sportwagen into the Golf TDI Sportwagen. They’ve always been Golf elsewhere, but people are status conscious. Golf is basic hatchback. Jetta is entry level luxury.
The Golf is the platform on which the New Beetle is also built.
Same car, different body shape. Fun to drive. Which is ironic since the Germans said they would never bring the Beetle back.
The much-loved design is iconic and remains because it is VW’s flagship car.
