A feel-good atmosphere while driving is taken care of. The interior of the Golf GTE sets with its distinctive sporty design by blue stitching on the steering wheel, shifter and floor mats elegant accents. The dynamic GTE look is additionally underlined by noble details such as the aluminum-look gear lever knob with blue rings and the stainless steel pedals. The black headliner gives the interior of your Golf GTE an appealing atmosphere, enhanced by the aesthetic inlays "Honeycomb Black" in the interior door trim.

When driving at night, you can use the blue ambient lighting to create a particularly pleasant lighting mood in your Golf GTE. These include the discreetly lit door openers, the armrests and the decorative light gaps in the front doors. The footwell and the reading lamps are equipped with LED lights. These are easily regulated via the central display.

The front of the Golf GTE with its closed radiator grille and blue trim stands for agility and aerodynamics. The blue band continues in the dynamically shaped LED headlights and harmonises perfectly with the Volkswagen emblem, behind which the charging socket is integrated.

The LED daytime running light, which is mounted in progressive C-shape in the bumper, convinces, as all LED components, by low probability of failure and low energy consumption. Viewed from the side, the side skirts stand out, leaving the Golf GTE visually full on the road. Of course, the distinctive rear end is just as sporty: the rear spoiler is painted in the same color as the car and painted glossy black on the underside.

The chrome twin tailpipe is located to the left underneath the diffuser, which impresses with its sporty design and forms a compact, dynamic unit with the sturdy bumper. The dark red taillights in LED technology look very elegant and shine dominant when they are needed.

The Light Emitting Diode LED is an ingenious invention that has become an integral part of modern technology. Compared to an incandescent lamp, which gives off a lot of energy in the form of heat and not in the form of light, the LED is a true energy-saving miracle. In addition, it is much more durable and failsafe.

In the Golf GTE you will find the light emitting diodes in a variety of applications, especially in the front headlights and taillights. The full-LED headlamps with daylight-like light color spread a pleasant light and at the same time provide good road illumination. The characteristic C signature of the LED daytime running lights is more than a design element, because it increases the visibility of your vehicle. This is also the highlight of the beautifully designed LED taillights.

A special highlight is the innovative dynamic flashing light: an animated light band that indicates the turning direction.

Looks good for you: the wheel selection for the Golf GTE. As standard, you will receive the 16-inch "Astana" alloy wheels, which will guide you through everyday life. With the "Marseille", "Rio de Janeiro" and "Sevilla" light-alloy wheels you have an optional wheel program for the Golf GTE. All of them impress with their dynamically striking design, larger diameters and strikingly blue calipers, which leave nothing to be desired, even for the ambitious driver.

In the new Golf GTE you can choose between two optionally available navigation systems. The "Discover Media" system is equipped with a 20.3 cm (8 inch) color touchscreen display, eight speakers, FM radio reception, CD drive, two SD card slots, AUX-IN and USB interfaces, a mobile phone interface via Bluetooth and free software updates.

If you want more, the optional navigation system "Discover Pro" offers an innovative gesture control. This will allow you to switch from radio stations to radio stations, for example, or change the system settings of your car, such as the light intensity of the interior lighting. In addition, it has a 23.4 cm (9.2 inch) screen on which a 3-D map display can be clearly displayed. It has eight speakers, FM radio reception, a CD drive that plays music in MP3, AAC and WMA format, two SD card slots, AUX-IN and USB interfaces and a mobile phone interface via Bluetooth.

ACC measures the distance and speed of vehicles ahead. In columns and traffic jams, the system brakes your Golf in conjunction with the optional DSG dual-clutch gearbox to a standstill and automatically restarts within a short time. The system can keep your vehicle within its limits at a speed of up to 210 km / h.
