Volkswagen Golf dimensions

On this page you will find different dimensions for the Volkswagen Golf.

You will find, among other things, information about width, length and height.

I have collected information about various popular diesel engines and petrol engines from 11 generations of Volkswagen Golf.

If there are two measurements, it may be because different equipment means that the car can differ in size. For example, if the car has fixed rails on the roof or sportier suspension that makes the car lower.

All measurements are shown in millimeters.

I also have a page with the fuel tank capacity in Volkswagen Golf.
