The 2018 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen is a compact wagon offered in 3 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $21,685. For that price, it indirectly competes with the subcompact wagons such as FIAT 500L, the Kia Soul, and the MINI Countryman Cooper. Between 3 trims, the 2018 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen offers a single powertrain but multiple transmissions. It is a 1.8L turbocharged Inline-4 engine making 170 horsepower and 199 lb-ft of torque with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The same engine induces 184 lb-ft of torque with the manual transmission. The Volkswagen Golf SportWagen reaches 60 mph from zero in 7.7 seconds. Depending on the transmission, the Volkswagen Golf SportWagen can manage a combined fuel economy of between 29 and 28 mpg. While we’re on the topic of choices, the 7 striking colors the Volkswagen Golf SportWagen comes in really pull you towards itself.
