When it was launched in 1974, the Volkswagen Golf succeeded in
replacing the legendary Beetle and setting new standards for the
family hatchback for years to come. It would become one of the top
three bestselling cars in the world. With its stunning design by
Giorgetto Giugiaro, founder of Ital design, the new car also
incorporated significant engineering features such as a transverse
engine that allowed for more internal space. In this revealing
book, VW expert Richard Copping follows the story of the
development of the Golf and the critical management and design
decisions that would make the car such a worldwide success. The
author shows how the concept of continuous development at
Volkswagen led to the appearance of the versions of the Golf that
are covered in this book — the Mk 2 in 1983, the Mk 3 in 1991,
and the Mk IV in 1997. He explores the various design and
engineering changes that took place as the Golf evolved, including
increased dimensions, new engines and of course the stunningly
successful GTi. The fourth generation Golf also introduced powerful
but economical diesel engines. The book also covers variants such
as the Jetta, Vento and Bora, which accounted for most sales in the
United States. Full of fascinating information, this book is a
revealing analysis of the first four versions of the Volkswagen
Golf.
