Well I definitely prefer the Golf 7, having to control everything with the screen or touch buttons is only asking for trouble when electronics break down....
You know that buttons are mechanical and break as well..... just like those small separate LCD's they use for the temperature in other cars. How many times have you seen in older cars that the infotainment works well after 12 years, but the AC temperature display LCD is broken. Many times. Also buttons can get stuck, fall out and fade. Most infotainment errors can be fixed by an update or by restarting it. A broken button , well, you can't.
You’ll find that all those buttons and switches on your car are still electronic. For example if you use a switch to turn on the lights you are not actually turning on the lights as such you are only sending a message to micro processor to turn on the lights. It makes very little difference to the cars reliability whether it’s a switch, a touch pad or touch screen. Is a computer keyboard anymore reliable than an iPad screen?
Golf, definitely. It's a much better car. Infotainment system is much easier to use, it's much much quieter (Corolla is one of the noisiest cars in this segment) and much more responsive to drive. also depending on the market VW can be cheaper.
@@mathias61 The "best" is not manipulated, not completely overpriced and has a good price-performance ratio. The Golf does not have all that. At VW you buy the cheating software at the same time - NO THANKS =)
Witam, oglądając Pana przejazdy innymi samochodami odnoszę wrażenie, być może mylne, że w tym Golfie przy prędkości tzw. autostradowej pojawia się dość intensywny i uciążliwy szum. I nie jest to raczej hałas pochodzący od silnika ale szum od pokonywanego oporu powietrza. W tym modelu jest wyjątkowo wyeksponowany, chyba, że zmienił Pan kamerę na model z lepszymi parametrami audio. Otwarcie klapy bagażnika wygląda tu trochę jak dodatkowy warunek konieczny do odpalenia auta (zabezpieczenie antykradzieżowe) ;-), bo jeśli chodziło o demonstrację przestrzeni bagażowej to trochę nie wyszło - niewiele widać i szybkość operacji błyskawiczna. Czy nawiewy nie są czasem za nisko? Jak pójdzie szybkie schładzanie to prawa ręka może być sztywna po dłuższej jeździe. Jak Pan to ocenia jako tester?
Szum wydawał się pochodzić od kół, szum powietrza był na chwilę słyszalny gdy "Joe" zbliżał się do 150km/h. Co do samej intensywności trudno coś powiedzieć bo tego nie da się określić po materiale wideo, trzeba się przejechać.Zarówno w Golfie, jak i w Octavii nawiewy są dużo za nisko, wieją na miednicę kierowcy i łokieć od spodu.
He was driving pretty spiritedly (it pulls strongly from 1500rpm, you don't need to rev it to go fast) while keeping elevated revs, like 1000 rpm more than necessary. As a result - cylinder deactivation never kicked in. This engine is particularily economical on the highway, first tests of both new Golf and Octavia show that it needs about 6,5l/100km at 140 km/h (highway speed limit in Poland). And still 7,6l/100km while driving spiritedly is what the old 1.6 MPi would use while being much slower.
@Mr11ESSE111 This car uses about 6,5l/100km under normal mixed cycle with normal driving. It's a good result. During spirited driving 180+HP gasoline cars will use about 10l/100km.
i get 4.5l/100km with this 1.5tsi engine if i drive economically, and have around 5.5 average consumption over the life of the car. what does low consumption mean for you?
Its better the golf 7 for no noisy, Volkswagen have financial problems so you can understand that for produce Golf 8 cut something....bad thing in my opinion...btw beautiful car
Just keep lower revs. It's particularily economical on the highway, first tests of both new Golf and Octavia show that it needs about 6,5l/100km at 140 km/h (highway speed limit in Poland) which is better than many diesels.

The new Golf may have the most refined and easy to drive character, but it's no longer the king of the c segment in terms of interior quality. In my opinion, the Peugeot 308 is now the best-built car in the segment, despite its age.
Yeah agree. But i noticed It’s the case with all volkswagens these Days. Too much cheap plastics. Peugeot on the other hand really upgraded their interiors. Look at the 3008 and the 508. Really great interior quality with soft toch everywhere.
Wrong. Pug 308 is NOT a leader of anything, besides annoying visits to the garage. The best car in this segment, quality-wise is by far the new Mazda 3. There is no competitor to Mazda these days.
@@andersnielsen6044I agree with you that the Mazda 3 is a product of very high quality. But being an almost Premium car and way pricier than the Peugeot 308, the new Mazda 3 can only be compared to other premium cars, like BMW 1 series, Mercedes a class and Audi a3.
@@thanasisconstantinou7442 You are so wrong here. Pug 308 is more expensive than even a new Golf or an Octavia. Mazda is significant cheaper, like 5-10.000 euros. A 130 hp pug 3008 costs more than a 150 hp Passat estate..
Seems like a relaxing car to drive
Revolutions88 It's a great car to drive much better and more comfortable than the mk 7 just not sure with all the electrics how reliable it will be.
Good car and good engine

Golf without any doubt. Who buys Corolla, if you can buy the best car of the segment ;-)

New octavia is far better looking and cheaper... Joe when will you test it?
It depends where, here in Poland Golf is cheaper than Octavia.
Weird to see a manual in such a new car

How does that shift by wire gear box feel like? Does it feel like an old fashioned gear box, or does it feel any different?
Shift by wire applies to automatic transmission.

Ciekawe, podobnie jak w Polo z 1.0 TSI, słychać tu gwizd turbiny. W moim poprzednim samochodzie z 1.2 TSI nigdy nie słyszałem tego dźwięku. 🙂

low consumptions on paper and not so low or relative high for 2020 in reality

It's like they do a bad design on Golf for purpose. It's a shame.
Would love to see one of the new eTSI in one of your videos!
Unfortunately it is like 10.000 euro more expensive than this version. The 150 ps, is more expensive than a 200 hp Opel Insignia here..
Hm... It's a little bit noisy.
Its better the golf 7 for no noisy, Volkswagen have financial problems so you can understand that for produce Golf 8 cut something....bad thing in my opinion...btw beautiful car
