I like AJ's technical approach to reviews. I enjoyed this review. And diesels for me are the best engine technology for my usage: 1.6 Civic uses less than 5 liters, has 300Nm and 1000 km range.
Every new car is better technology and everything the ambient lighting in golf 8 is 🔥.. so not sure why anyone comment they're golf 7 is better lol when you will be able to afford upgrade you Deffo jump on it. Great review BTW 👏
@@antonthompson7838 Physical buttons don't break. They just work because they've been doing them for decades. Why would you want to change something that'll require you to press something anyway? It's not as if this new tech would allow anybody to do things more effectively, or even differently. If you want to pay for things that are going to break as soon as the warranty's done, it's your problem. Meanwhile, you're "moany old grandad" seems to be a very logical and wise man. Respect your elders.
How can that user interface be released for production? At the end, one person must be responsible for this. A bunch of people rubber stamping solutions without really understanding what is going on adds to such a disaster.
The interior of the new Golf 8 with its "all touch no buttons" interface, plus the obvious cost cutting (e.g. no sliding cover for the storage area between the front seats, not even as an option) annoyed me enough to switch away from VW after having had three Golf GTI. I hope VW will learn the lesson - all reviews mention the cheaper interior and the horrible infotainment system.
Sorry, no offense. But with a height of just a bit over 1,70 meters I think you are not in a good position to make a statement about the spacious room on the rear seats. With the front seat adjusted to your height you could basically sit in the back of any car and find enough room for you. I think Thomas is a more suitable person for that kind of judgement. 🙂
New Golf: 😎 Capacitive steering wheel "buttons": 🤢🤮 Sorry, chief. Making *EVERY SINGLE* user control touch sensitive AIN'T it! Sliding to change temperature? Get outta here, VW! 🤦♂️
Yep, idk why people agree to buy this shit, they dont even light up at night so you have to guess where to slide LOL whats wrong with buttons, other than car brands being cheap skates while raising the car prices up
@henryvii fake Vw is going to get a lot of resistance with these stupid fake buttons. It is a deal breaker for me..the climate control system is ludicrous.
VW's attitude of "money first" is really showing. Their new interface is downright dangerous. You can't find anything easily and have to look while driving to find anything. Their materials have also really dropped in quality. I really hope that the backlash they are receiving helps them to change their attitude and realize that "customer and quality first" is the only real way to put "money first".
I totally agree with you! I went today to buy this car and decided I couldn’t cope with all that touch screen and sliders!! I walked away! Back to the drawing board ….

What a horrendous looking monstrosity not to mention they cheaped out on quality . That dashboard looks like it came from a budget Korean car manufacturer , looks old already .
When driving at night just say “Hey Volkswagen” then she says “What can I do for you?” Then just say “Temperature 21 degrees”. All new Golf’s have the better infotainment system, this press car has obviously never been fixed.
Hey, Ajay! 🤗 Nice to see you here again. Interesting and informative review, as always. 🤗Hehe, you should use *your* music if you choose to showcase the sound system of a vehicle. Very nice music. 👍 I would love to see you review more high-end cars. You know how much I love the S-Class. 😂 Anyway, what you said about the climate controls and infotainment system scared me. It may be a one-off thing. Hopefully it is. I am not sure the context of this car, so it is hard to say. Or it could because of the cold, but I am not sure of the engineering of this car, so I cannot say for sure. Never tried out the car for myself, so who knows. 😂 Yeah, the start/stop system will turn on after you have turned on the car again due to regulations. Same goes with most safety and assistance systems. Modern life, man. For safety. 😂🤗
@@Cr1stianoMA I think it is because environment legislation is turning against diesel and MHEV/PHEV are slowly taking its place. Hence there is low demand on powerful diesel engines.
He’s not in the final 7 for Car of the year in Europe 2021- I think skoda Octavia or Seat Leon will win, which is fer!! VW I. D, 3 it’s a finalist, but its EV car .
