With its European-inspired handling, Audi-like interior fit and finish, and impressive safety features, Volkswagen’s 2017 Golf feels like a big car in a little package. The Golf’s varied lineup includes the GTI and all-wheel-drive R, two of the best compact-performance cars on the market.
Hatchbacks aren’t for everyone. The open back is not as secure as a lockable trunk, and there’s more interior noise than with a sedan. With the diesel option gone and no hybrid offering, those seeking 40-plus mpg will need to look toward a Toyota Prius or Chevy Volt.
