After two years of reporting on chassis mules, we finally have first photographs of a full-bodied Volkswagen Mk. 6 Golf prototype. The spy behind the lens in the USA was very lucky to get these shots before VW engineers took these prototypes away onto the trailer. This is the first time Volkswagen is using the black and white camouflage together with some extra black camouflage over the front and rear.
Looking lower and longer, the next-generation Golf is scheduled to be introduced in late 2012 or early 2013. It is slated to ride on the new MQB architecture. Our pictures are showing two prototypes, a 3-door Golf GTI and a regular 5-door version. The prototypes left the garage together with a benchmarking Audi S3. Both prototypes are lower and longer than the current generation Golf VI. The next generation Golf will have more interior space. The three-door-hatch Golf VII has big GTI wheels and GTI exhausts.
