VW Golf refresh spied with new infotainment display screen uncovered

The brand new Volkswagen GTI and Golf R should still really feel like new automobiles right here within the U.S., however VW is already prepping a refresh to the common Golf over in Europe. Everyone knows that what’s utilized to the Golf, we’ll see transferred over to the GTI and Golf R, making the inside spy pictures of this check automobile mighty intriguing.

Volkswagen has heard the complaints about its latest infotainment system/middle stack design 1,000,000 occasions over from each nook of the web at this level, and stated infotainment system seems to be the large change proven in these spy photographs.
