After the long teaser and countdown, Volkswagen finally took the covers off the all-new, eight-generation Volkswagen Golf with the release of a full gallery.

The actual production model does did not look too different from what we have been seeing so far but it is clear that a few changes have been made to the front. The Volkswagen Golf mk8 will now be fitted with a set of new headlights with a slimmer design and also an updated daytime running lights.

There is also an updated grille that seems to look smaller than the previous grille, new hood as well as a new liftgate. In the back, the vehicle will be fitted with an updated bumper along with a fake dual exhaust system.

More changes were made on the inside with a new steering wheel, digital instrument cluster and also an updated infotainment system and new dashboard design.

Engine options like the 1.0-liter three-cylinder, 1.5 liters, and 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine will be available along with a few diesel options. A GTi option will also be offered next year with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine.
