- Golf R Wagon priced at $57,490
- Golf R Wolfsburg Editions from $57,990
Volkswagen Australia today finalises the pricing of its Golf "7.5" range with the announcement of exceptional offerings for its Golf R Wagon, and Golf R Wolfsburg Edition hatch and Wagon.
Acknowledging the runaway success of the first Wolfsburg Edition in 2015 and bowing to public demand for a reprise, Volkswagen Australia will make available the new Wolfsburg duo in late August shortly after the launch of the Golf GTI and Golf R hatchbacks.
This time, however, the limited run of 300 in each shape prefaces the introduction of the Golf R Wagon as a permanent fixture in the Volkswagen range from January.
Volkswagen Australia's General Manager of Marketing and Product Ben Wilks says: "In hatch form the Golf R is by some distance the best-selling and -equipped car of its type. In Wagon form, it is that rarest of beasts – a fun, fast and fully functional family car."
The Golf R hatchback comes with either 6-speed manual ($52,990) or 7-speed DSG ($55,490). The Golf R Wagon arrives in January at $57,490 with 7-speed DSG standard:
