your accent is really easy to understand, love it
I really enjoy this video as this is the closest I'm going to get to driving one.
So thank you
Yes I agree. Buttons are easier, convenient and less dangerous. I prefer the older model Golf and Audi A3 because they have buttons and knobs for heating, air con and stereo controls.
The new A3 still got that tho
The only thing it's got going for it that would make it's removal excusable is the voice control, I'm far too used to just reaching down the dual climate control from muscle memory in my Mk3 Leon.
I predict -in about a year- VW will offer new version going back to some basic knobs. Over complicated ergonomics bring negative results.
The base level infotainment system of the golf 8 also has two knobs attached to it. It's still possible to adjust the volume with a manual button.
They've simply dumped them all on the steering wheel
Hey man, Just wanted to say that your videos are very relaxing and informative. Also you have a really nice and undestandable english. Cheers from Bulgaria :)
Plamen Ivanov thanks 🙏
Please more reviews like this, love the format
Very good review!! the best I found among others. Thanks mate!
Croatian AutoTopNL. Nice videos man :)
Excellent review. Love the new Golf 8. It did take some time to get use to the design both interior and exterior but I really like it now. Br from Denmark
I am about to get the 1.5 150hp Petrol version (R-line not Life)! Can't wait after seeing this video! Thanks!
thanks for doing the best pov and review on youtube. keep doing these reviews and pov and night
Just ordered the GTD!!! Can’t wait
I can't wait for you to review the GTi!
Great video and helped me decided on my next car.
awesome video you deserve more subscribers
Splendid video review. Thank you. Can't wait until my GTD arrives.
Is it reliable?
Really good video, thanks. Big fan of the Golf.
Excellent review! Thanks
Great review, im thinking of getting the R line 2.0
Thanks for the review! I have my R-LIne coming in 2 weeks :-). Can’t wait.
was it good lol
@@RohanKumar-gm7nb he probably crashed it because of the stupid touchscreen.
I actually just ordered it (1,5l eTSI, Oryx white with 18" rims, almost full options) and your videos, along with the ones from another Croatian guy, were very useful to help me take my decision. Thanks !
How is the car after 2 years?
Another Baba Yaga classic 😁
I loved the POV and the night illumination demo but I have to ask: are the LEDs blue-ish like that in real life? They look so cool in the video but I think they are not that blue IRL.
Thanks for the review. I'm looking forward to a top tier GTE review in similar fashion. That's what I would get and would test drive, but I know it's a few months away from getting to our parts of the world. Cheers! You're getting better at this BTW 🤙
Great video, really helped me :)
Nice video! Nice car! Cannot wait to have mine!
NAletio slucajno na kanal, odlicno!
regarding the illumination on the volume and AC, the only explanation I can come up with is that you rarely need AC at night time and you can adjust the volume from the steering wheel
Good reviews, you seem so impressed, I hope my 1.5 130 style, when it arrives is as impressive.
I've been driving a 1.5 130 style since the launch day and I will tell you that it is so much better than the previous Golf.
I would love a Mk8 R, but I’m really not a fan of all the touch surfaces that are being put into these cars.. I drive an e-Golf for work, and that has touch sensitive volume buttons, instead of a regular knob, and it just feels so impractical to use, especially while driving. In normal cars you can just reach for the buttons and you feel them and hold on to them, and it’s so much easier.
Definitely agree on the lack of shortcuts. Having all the major controls being touch is not a good idea. At least they backed off the previous idea where even the steering wheel and light controls were touch.
R line and GTI wheel buttons are touch. And for the no button haters. Is Tesla a bad car?
@@Ivo- yes, I don't like tesla interior
Hi Josip, thanks for another video of the Golf 8. About to choose btw Golf and Megane. What do you recomend?
Nice vid mate, cant wait for mine to arrive, sadly the delivery time is up to 18 months, by the time it is available its already an old model. Golf wouldnt be my first choice but as far as company car goes i aint too fussed.
"you quickly forget the hard plastics" yeah I definitely wouldn't forget the hard plastics after handing over 34,000 euro.
The overall direction's nice, but feels like they rushed completing it
Find me a car that doesn't have hard plastic for under 35k

👏🏻 bravo
currently have a BMW 118 D (the last version with RWD) as a company car but considering switching to the Golf 8 Station Wagon when I have to order my new car March 2021.... The BMW is a nice car but costs way more with less extras equipped (I got easily to 42 K without leather seats, without better sound system, without roof window +++) I might change a few bucks (there will be tax deducted from your gross income for a certain value percentage of a company car in Germany) with the golf while having an overall better car (ok, less sporty but in my mid 40s I tend to go slower on the autobahn these days).... Great video, interior looks fantastic.
gonna stick with my 7.5 R thankyou
Very good English! Bravo!
Good video
Dobro auto brate
Beautiful
Great Car
11,10 you made my day
Odličar review I odlična vožnja kao i obično.
Golf zbilja počinje lagano se penjati u Premium compact klasu, I zbilja je dobar i opasan konkurent Mercedesu, Audiju i BMW-u, a dosta je niža cijena.
Jedina stvar s kojom se ne mogu pomiriti kod novog Golfa je prednji dizajn. No nadam se da ću se s vremenom sprijateljiti s tim dizajnom.
Samo jedna stvar Josipe. Ako je moguće da manje koristite poštapalicu "am", prekida fluidnost review-a.
Inače kao što rekoh, odličan review i uvijek volim gledati Vaše videe.
Veseli me što i sa naših prostora ima netko tko radi ovakve videe za naše tržište.
Pozdrav iz Njemačke, i ostanite zdravi.
Are the electric comfort seats standard on the style in uk?
I also liked the Buttons way more than the Touch Interface... Also though to adjust the temperature while driving... 😅
Your English is very good. I think you've spent time here in America (or Canada), based on the accent.
cant wait till GTI come out so i can test drive it
Nice car
What camera do you use ?
pozdrav iz amerike!!
By the way Seat leon or this ? Can’t decide between the two !
Thank you
Great review, subscribed. What trim is this ?
Style
Dash looks like a Mazda to me , not typical VW that I love.
Sounds like an improvement 😄
@@hungaro96 nah I like the simple clean lines of VW
Does the iQLight work? In the dark it didn't seem to turn to maximum light.
Jebena korona, bio bi moj iza ljeta...odličan video kao i obično, svaka čast!
i ja planiram kupiti novog čini se crna boja najbolja radi onih naprijed kljova koje su u boji vozila zato sam odustao od sive boje.
@@merdzanmerdzanovski4274 Zbog trenutne situacije morat ću se zadovoljiti sedmicom za sad. Ma meni je siva najatraktivnija od ovih koje su trenutno u ponudi, zanima me koja će cijena biti GTD-u s obzirom da je malo opremljeniji 2.0 DSG (150KS) laganih 275k.
@@jamanwolt2138 ja imam 7 r line dizela 115 konja 1,6. Treba mi jos jedan auto uzeti cu benzinca 150 konja i stayle paket opreme i matrix svjetla i jos neke kerifeke, ali naravno kad prođe ovo zlo.
"Honestly it looks so good" Saw it on dealers and no it does not look good truly honestly.
Subjective
the same was said about the golf mk 5, 6, 7...
@@stanfranzisko4444 yes and are they "so good looking"? Well no. They look boring and wont stand out of the mass. Same with many cars. They dont make you hate them but also not love them. Its the most grey design you can make.
By far the worst looking Golf yet, but I have been saying that since mark 5. I bet they will make it even uglier with the next gen.
@Joe Kinchicken I sure am. Haha
Nice video..which cam?
Zip Zap Zoom GoPro 8

It was the discover media or pro ?
Thanks a lot for your review , you simply talked about all important subjects and you were very clear . I have a question for you and I would be happy if you could answer . The question is : if you had the choice to choose between the golf and the new octavia for a single guy without kids and stuff . Which car would you go for ? Money is not an issue here and also i will probably buy the top variant ( style ) and 1.5 petrol etsi engine. Thanks a lot friend !
If you want a fast car Golf is smaller and lighter. In that case I would get R Line package. Golf has ambient lights on the rear doors as well.
If you plan on keeping the car, it doesn’t heart to have more space in case you start a family Octavia is No1.
@@JRCarReviews Unfortunately the R line is not available in my country so style trim is the top . If you compare road and wind noises inside the two cars , which car among these two has best noise cancellation?
Can you control the radio/cd player with the steering wheel controls, or have they removed that too?
Will Thompson you can the radio, but there is no more CD player
Love the car but can't believe they buried the auto start/stop kill button in the infotainment system. Huge mistake!
i like it
Decent video you went through a lot of stuff. I'm thinking about golf 8 R-line or a A3 S line Ur video has helped. Thank you.
Just wanted to ask does (acc) work in manual transmission aswell? As I was looking at the 1.5 petrol 150bhp manual version. Thanks
It works, but doesn’t stop in traffic by itself.
Thanks
Great video. Can you show us the strength and detail of the interior? Thanks
There is all ready video on the channel, look it up.
Enterijer mu je dobar
How does the interior noise compare with the diesel Superb you drove the other night? Thanks
Superb drive was few months ago, but fairly similar.
Is it me or do I see a flashing light at the top of your phone? How did you get that on an iPhone?!?! I used to have that on my Nexus back in the day!
That's the IR camera for face ID I believe. You can't actually see it flash in person.
That’s right it’s the ToF lens trying to recognize his face to unlock the phone
Couple of irritating things for me. The temp sliders on the dash are not backlit so you can’t see them at night. And keyless entry on mine doesn’t work!! Back at vw after 5 days!! Brand new gtd, hope it’s not a Monday car!
Does the ambient light extend to the back as well?
Yes
To imenjace!
Can you make this video with the new skoda octavia ?
Yes but after lockdown is over.
Josip Ricov oky thank you 👍
Is it quiet inside the cabin? Maybe you were driving Passat B8, could you please compare sound-deadening between these two?
Kamil Dylewski it’s pretty similar
2:42 wait for the clang...
When launched please test the upgraded gte
The GTE is the best Golf 8
Looks good at night, but doesn't change the fact concerning the cost cutting. The glove box is not felt lined. Wait until everything in it starts vibrating. These were the things that VW was built on. Quality.
Plastic everywhere inside/outside the engine, permanent check-engine lights, bad coilpacks, carbon buildup, wiring, I agree there's nothing like volkswagen quality.
Can you change the blue digital dash to a different colour or is that the only colour?
Arjan Singh yes you can! 😎
Ambient lightning only works at night. Day time only works when I open or close the doors. Can you change that? Thanks for the video
Lights are turned ON by light sensor if passing through a tunnel during day. Maybe manually turning them ON might turn them on...
Wireless key? :D I have never seen wired key before..
Hi, I don't see the option for "matrix led", is it standard?
How do you end up with a 34k€ configuration? I guess prices have been increasing, cause nowadays you can't get away with less than 40k€
In Croatia we have crazy CO2 tax, and VAT 25%, after this video prices went up even more!
Whats difference Led plus vs Matrix IQ lights.
As an option, do the LED plus look as good?
Big difference out side city with no street lights. Looks better as well.
Josipe, koje ima audio ozvucenje u ovom paketu od 35 k?
Ivan Biscan osnovno
@@JRCarReviewshaha svasta ocekivao sam neko premium ozvucenje..
Jeriii dizeelll
i'm wondering why did you covered the amblem on the wheel.??
WhoisThisMAN I didn’t cover anything. 🤷🏻♂️
5:34 Whats that song called😂😅👏🏽?
Just picked up my new golf. Don’t understand why the touchslide isn’t lit up. Unless I’m missing something?
Josh L there are infrared sensors behind it...
Kolko je teško dobit auto za snimanje besplatno u Hrvatskoj od autosaluna ako nemaš vezu ili nisi značajna javna osoba?
_____________ dosta teško
now the real questions... can you turn off the wireless charging for smartphones ?
They should have a premium sound system they should have Harmon Kardon or BOSE sound system with like 500watts
Won’t golf r have kardons or premium brand stereo?
They have HK
is everything blue on this video ?
How it feels against Mazda 3? Should i wait for Golf till 2021 or get Mazda?
Mazda 3 interior has nicer materials but Golf is a nicer design imo. You'd not be disappointed with either car.
Both are good, golf is more refined and efficient with eTSI
It's a pity when you turn of the screen, the radio also turn off.
Can it travel from berlin to warsaw in one tank?
Probably yes.. if you have a diesel tho...
With a Diesel easy
I think these guys missed the joke 😅 Hello from another Top Gear fan 👋

Hi. I can get either a seat leon, a 2 litre golf diesel tdi life or 1.8 corolla as a company car. im not a speed freak but want to overtake i also do a lot of miles in the uk. thoughts please
I didn’t test Toyota cars, but in general more power is better 150 should be enough for easy overtake. Think I prefer Seat more than Golf. But then Toyota might seem more interesting since it doesn’t have all the functions like AC on screen that is buggy.
@@JRCarReviews thanks a lot. take care
Seat for fun, Corolla for economy
Bin überrascht wie gut es aussieht, für ein Golf.
Anyone know at 34000 for the R line can you get a discount off the On the road price if you are getting 0 per cent fianance with VW bank?
What do you think? Golf 7 GTD 2017 oder Golf 8 2.0tdi 150hp?
We have videos on our channel about the performance and consumption of the Golf 8 TDI. You are welcome to watch them.
I would’ve have asked if it’s a reliable car but then again it hasn’t been a year yet to judge it’s reliability
I bought a 2018(US spec) Golf SE.It's been flawless for two years.All it needed was an oil change.
where're you actually from ?
Croatia
"I got my Note here" ... brings up an iPhone.
Thanks for the video tho ;)
He’s got the notes app for iOS open
@@jmml1 It was a joke
Shikuri I get it 😅
Gosh those light all around the interior is annoying.... Can it be turned off?
Is comfort comparable to Passat now?
Yes
