FactThe Golf Plus came with LED tail lights as standard, the first car in its class to do so; the regular Golf did without.
The Golf Plus is a taller version of the Volkswagen Golf manufactured in Wolfsburg between 2004 and 2014, variously described as a hatchback or a compact MPV. It is built on the Volkswagen Group A5 (PQ35) platform of the Golf Mk5 and Golf Mk6. A crossover-styled CrossGolf was also offered, and a facelifted model was introduced in February 2010 at the Geneva Motor Show. It was replaced by the Golf Sportsvan.
