Volkswagen Golf Mk6 is World Car Of The Year 2009

During the opening of the New York Auto Show the Volkswagen Golf Mk6 received the 2009 World Car Of The Year award (WCOTY). The jury was comprised of 59 international automotive journalists from 25 countries around the world.

Since the first Golf rolled of the production line, more than 26 million units have been sold, in more than 120 countries, which makes it one of the highest selling cars in the world.

“It is a tremendous honor for Volkswagen to have its global best selling model, the Golf, named the 2009 World Car of the Year,” said Stefan Jacoby, President/CEO, Volkswagen of America, Inc. “This is a great way to kick-off the new Golf here in America. We’re excited for the arrival of the sixth generation Golf, which will be in Volkswagen showrooms later this year. Simply put, we believe this is the best Golf ever.”
