50 years of Golf = 50 years of innovation! 🚗 A new benchmark: starting in October 2003, the Golf V was launched. One of its highlights was the completely redesigned and retuned chassis with a new four-link rear suspension and electromechanical power steering. Additionally, it featured four disc brakes, an electronic stability program (ESP), traction control (ASR), an electronic differential lock (EDS), an anti-lock braking system (ABS), and a brake assist system. Along with an increase in length (plus 57 millimeters) and wheelbase (plus 67 millimeters), it came standard with various airbags (front, side front, head airbags). Side airbags were optional. The VW Golf V showcased a new level of body variety. In 2004, the Golf Plus debuted – a five-door compact van for those needing a bit more space. In 2006, the Golf GT was introduced. It was the world’s first Twincharger TSI with both turbocharging and supercharging. In 2007, three new derivatives were introduced: the CrossGolf, a new Golf Variant, and the Golf BlueMotion (with an average consumption of only 4.5 l/100 km). At the end of 2007, the series production of the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission began at the Kassel plant. It weighed only 70 kilograms (23 kilograms less than the 6-speed DSG) and consisted of 400 parts. It was first used in the best-selling TDI 77 kW (105 PS) and the newly developed TSI 90 kW (122 PS).
