Volkswagen Golf Match 2018: prices, specification and on sale date
New Volkswagen Golf Match edition replaces SE and SE Nav trims; on sale now priced from £20,545
This is the new Volkswagen Golf Match, a new addition to the Golf, Golf Estate and Golf SV ranges. It replaces the outgoing SE and SE Nav models and brings more standard equipment than those models offered. The VW Golf Match is available to order now, priced from £20,545 in three-door form with a 1.0-litre TSI petrol engine and a six-speed manual gearbox.
All Match models come as standard with new alloy wheels, front fog lights, sat-nav and tinted rear windows. These new features are included on top of the outgoing SE and SE Nav specification, which includes a leather steering wheel, an auto dimming rear view mirror and adaptive cruise control, plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.

The Golf’s new trim level arrives as Volkswagen continues its development of the forthcoming all-new Mk8 model, which is due to be revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September 2019.
Volkswagen Golf Match engines and prices
The Volkswagen Golf Match is available with the usual engine choices – a 1.0-litre petrol with 113bhp, a 1.5-litre petrol with 128bhp or 148bhp, along with a 1.6-litre diesel with 113bhp.

It starts at £22,140.
