If you’re looking for the cargo-holding ability and comfort of a compact SUV, but don’t fancy the high step-in height or visibility-limiting narrow side windows, the 2017 VW Golf SportWagen makes an excellent runner-up. AWD is available with either a manual or automatic transmission.
If you’re looking for a soft ride, soft seats and fuel economy in the 40-plus mpg range, you’re better off with a hybrid hatchback like the Toyota Prius V. Although AWD is offered on the SportWagen, VW’s wagon lacks the ride height and off-road ability of the Subaru Outback wagon.
