Nice interior space and features.
Reliable vehicle thus far. I do not love the orange color, but it is not a major issue. The seating is a nice size. The radio add ons are nice and convenient. Decent trunk space. Can get up to a decent speed quickly and easily. The overall ride is decently smooth. Nice cup holder space with the additional spots in the middle back seat pull down.

Safety combined with entertainment and a smooth ride! Fam for life!
I really love this car. It is safe, reliable, and has a lot of cool safety and entertainment features. I love how smooth the ride is and how quiet it is when on the road. The brakes and gas pedal are sensitive depending on the car owner previously (mine was terrible) so I like that it has some pickup and can stop on a dime if needed! It is such a comfortable car and I will never buy anything else but the VW golf.
