Car And Driver have published a review of the 2010 Volkswagen Golf hatchback. 'For U.S. buyers, who are not quite as attuned to the Golf's ongoing evolution as folks in Europe, the distinctions between generations five and six are probably a little difficult to discern at a glance. The front fascia is new, the sheetmetal is tightly wrapped around the wheels, front and rear overhangs are minimal, and the rear hatch opening has been widened. But the general look of the car is familiar, and it would take a robotic eye to see the tiny dimensional differences, although they do conspire to give the car a more purposeful appearance. The 101.5-inch wheelbase is unchanged, overall length (165.4 inches) is reduced by 0.4 inch, width (70.3 inches) increases by an inch, and height (58.3 inches) is unchanged.'
