Volkswagen is enhancing its Golf Estate range with the introduction of a permanent four-wheel drive version that allows as much as 100 per cent of the vehicle’s tractive force to be transmitted to the rear wheels if required. The 4Motion system is coupled with turbo-diesel (TDI) engine that generates 105 Hp.The Golf Estate TDI 4Motion accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 12.9 seconds, has a top speed of 185 km/h (115 mph) and consumes just 6.0 litres of diesel per 100 km or 38.6 MPG (US). More importantly, the Golf Estate TDI 4Motion is permitted to tow as much as 1,500 kilograms or 3,307 lbs on gradients of up to twelve per cent – that’s 100 kilograms or 220 lbs more than its front-wheel-drive diesel counterpart. –More pics after the jump
