Is the Volkswagen Golf AWD?

I want to buy a new car, and a sporty hatchback is at the top of my list. I’ve also always been a fan of Volkswagen, so the Golf is at the top of my list. I just want to make sure it has the handling I want—does the Volkswagen Golf offer AWD?

Although the
Volkswagen Golf
doesn’t have the fury and power of its sibling, the Golf GTI, it still has plenty to offer—including AWD. Front-wheel drive comes standard on all trims of the Volkswagen Golf, but the upgrade to AWD will set you back between $1,000 and $2,000, depending on the trim.
If you’re going to put your Volkswagen Golf to the test, make sure you have a car insurance policy that protects you and your vehicle. That’s when the
