This is the all-new, eighth-generation Volkswagen Golf, and while its world premiere would have received undivided attention in the past, the Golf must now share its fame. That"s because VW almost simultaneously launched the ID.3, the electric car of Golf-like format that the company believes will take a decisive leap into electric mobility.

The side mirrors look sporty, and Ferdinand Piëch would have taken pride in the precision joints and gaps. Less impressive is the convoluted chrome strip on the rear that surrounds an imaginary twin-flow exhaust, as well as the new "Volkswagen" text on the B-pillar. Aren"t the VW badges enough? Even if they have been subtly redesigned?

VW has killed the two-door Golf for good, and a return of the convertible is beyond hope. We do expect to see another wagon and Alltrack version for Europe, but their sale in the United States is doubtful. In fact, a Volkswagen sportsperson tells Autoblog that only the GTI and Golf R have been confirmed for North America, while the regular Golf is "still under consideration." Here"s hoping that consideration ends with a decision of "yes." If it does, we"d likely see it at the end of next year as a 2021 model.

Inside the new Golf, the analog world is gone and the changes are indeed far more radical inside than on the outside. There are no classic instruments here. Even in basic trim, large TFT screens in front of the driver sport a fully digital display. There is an optional "Innovision" cockpit that offers considerably more functions. In terms of infotainment, you can move digital tiles on the central screen; simple buttons and rotary switches make way for soft digital sliders, and optional voice control. A full head-up display completes the beautiful digital world.

On a very positive note, you can still row through the gears yourself. In fact, Volkswagen has developed an entirely new, low-friction six-speed manual that reduces fuel consumption significantly. Above that, there are seven-speed dual-clutch automatics.

The leap into the eighth generation seems a success, and many of the Golf"s features, at least in Europe, could come straight from the luxury class. The question remains whether Volkswagen has met or surpassed the needs of its customers, and whether some will live in the United States. At the very least, this is our first look at what to expect from the next-generation VW GTI and Golf R.
