The Golf is stretching its appeal! Sources have revealed VW is considering a coupé variant, badged the Golf CC, to join the new Mk VII line-up. The illustrations show how the premium model will look. Similar to the larger Passat CC, the Golf would provide a downsized alternative to a rash of four-door coupés, which include Audi’s A5 Sportback, forthcoming A7 and Mercedes’ CLS.
Despite its saloon-like styling, the Golf CC will have a hatchback and folding rear seats to maximise practicality. The interior will feature more premium materials, too, distancing it from the cheaper hatchback version. Whereas the Mk VII hatch has been slated for a 2012 debut, the Golf CC won’t make it to showrooms until two years later.
