Volkswagen Golf Black Edition: A Nighttime Marvel on Wheels
by AutoExpert | 8 September, 2023
While many automakers offer dark-themed packages like Night Edition or Nightshade, the Volkswagen Golf Black Edition takes this concept to a whole new level in the United Kingdom.
This fresh-from-the-oven model not only meets standard expectations but also brings unique equipment and a one-of-a-kind powertrain combination to the table, making it a real-life Golf batmobile.
As a warm-up, the entire trim is cloaked in a striking black paint job, thanks to the Black Style package. Additionally, it borrows body-colored bumpers from the R-Line package. For the first time in the UK, the Golf rides on 18-inch Bergamo alloy wheels, adding to its menacing presence.
On the bright side, the VW Golf Black Edition is equipped with LED Plus headlights featuring illuminated strips around them. Even the door handles get the illuminated treatment, and the black mirror housing completes the immaculate black design.
Inside, the Golf Black Edition boasts sporty front seats, tinted glass, and a 30-shade ambient lighting system. What's more, it comes loaded with a winter package and all the R-Line goodies.
Since choices are crucial, democracy extends to powertrain options:
- A 1.5-liter TSI engine, paired with a six-speed manual transmission, delivers 148 HP.
- A 1.5-liter TSI mild hybrid, mated to a seven-speed DSG gearbox.
- A 2.0-liter TSI engine, paired with a seven-speed DSG gearbox, producing 148 HP.
The Golf Black Edition is available for purchase today, with a price tag starting at $39,869 USD.
