April 2009
Volkswagen Golf has been honored 2009 World Car of the Year by a jury comprised of fifty-nine international automotive journalists from twenty-five countries around 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.”
The Golf, a perennial favorite in the Volkswagen line-up, has sold more than 26 million units in 120 countries, making it one of the top selling vehicles of all-time. The new sixth generation Golf first debuted at the Paris Motor show last fall, and made its U.S. debut at this year’s New York International Auto Show. The Golf has been designed to be quieter, sportier, fuel-efficient and present a clean, distinctive appearance that—staying true to Volkswagen—is fun-to-drive.
