If you're looking for a versatile and dependable vehicle that provides a sportier driving experience than compact SUVs, then we highly recommend the 2017 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen in Orange County CA. Possessing the stylish, fun-to-drive-nature and versatile hatchback design of the Volkswagen Golf, with the added benefit of more space, the new SportWagen is a wonderful vehicle for adventures in Southern California. Car shoppers from San Juan Capistrano, Irvine, Huntington Beach, Anaheim and elsewhere in Orange County can schedule a test drive for the 2017 Golf SportWagen right here at Capistrano Volkswagen!
The Golf SportWagen shares many of the same design features as other members of the Golf family, although distinctive elements such as the D-pillar, the roof rails and the unique rear design differentiate the SportWagen from the Golf hatchback. The front end features a hood that slopes down into the front fenders and sports angular horizontal design cues and a slender radiator grille. At the back, the wide rear window, geometric two-part taillights and a wide, low tailgate that integrates the license plate area pay homage to the previous Jetta SportWagen and solidify the car’s place in the Golf family. Thanks to Volkswagen's MQB architecture, the front wheels sit 1.7 inches further forward, giving a premium “cab backward” aesthetic. Along with the styling, these proportions help the SportWagen achieve a lower visual center of gravity and a more dynamic stance.

The new Golf SportWagen offers a comfortable, spacious and versatile interior. The upscale environment of the SportWagen cabin is largely shared with the Golf models upon which it is based, but interior volume is increased because of the wagon bodystyle. Occupants are treated to 94.3 cu-ft of passenger area volume, while the SportWagen's cavernous trunk is in line with those of compact SUVs. With the rear seats up, the SportWagen boasts 30.4 cu-ft of space. When the 60:40 split rear seat is fully folded, that figure rises to an enormous 66.5 cu-ft of storage. An equal amount of attention has been paid to maximizing comfort and convenience, even on the entry-level S trim. This base model comes well-equipped with a long list of modern comfort, convenience and entertainment features, including power windows, locks and mirrors, a multifunction steering wheel, rearview camera, Bluetooth technology and VW Car-Net connected vehicle services.
The Golf SportWagen delivers an enjoyable driving experience with its compact turbocharged and direct-injection engines throughout the entire trim range. The TSI gasoline unit is a member of the latest EA888 engine family and this 170 horsepower 1.8-liter turbocharged and direct-injection four-cylinder TSI engine is mated to either a five-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. When equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission, the Golf SportWagen’s EPA estimated fuel economy is an impressive 35 city/36 hwy mpg. Also, with the Golf SportWagen's available 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, it has the ability head off the pavement and maneuver easily in challenging weather conditions. Here at Capistrano Volkswagen, we invite Southern California car shoppers to come experience the stylish, versatile and fun-to-drive 2017 Golf SportWagen!
