• 
  Volkswagen Eos (2006 - 2015) (Reviews)
  Goes and handles well with space for four adults. Decent luggage trunk top up and fresh air top down.
• 
  Volkswagen Jetta (2006 - 2011) (Reviews)
  The case would never have got to court anyway because no one would have believed it. An invisible Volkswagen and a 120mph window cleaner. Now Jeremy Clarkson has given the new Jetta his kiss of death in The Sunday Times. He could not find a single feature to redeem it, likening the prospect of a forthcoming return journey to "spending an hour in a coma".
• 
  Volkswagen Passat (2005 - 2011) (Reviews)
  Volkswagen engineers could not make up their minds what to do with the engine of the Passat. At first it was longitudinal, slung ahead of the front wheels like an Audi's. Then, in 1988, they laid it horizontal across the car, like the Golf's.
• 
  Volkswagen Polo (2005 - 2009) (Reviews)
  Facelifted Polo. Wide choice of models available.
• 
  Volkswagen Golf (2004 - 2008) (Reviews)
  No car is as important to any car maker as the new Golf is to Volkswagen. That famous David Bailey, Paula Hamilton commercial, “Few things in life are as reliable as a Volkswagen” was for a Mk II Golf. But the Mk III was a step back. And though the Mk IV was an improvement, it has hardly been the last word in reliability.
• 
  Volkswagen Passat (2000 - 2005) (Reviews)
  A better drive and better equipped than the previous Passat. Comfortable and has more status than, say, a Ford Mondeo.
• 
  Volkswagen ID.7 Tourer (2024 on) (Reviews)
  One such choice has been added to the expansive VW EV range — here’s everything you need to know about it in our full Volkswagen ID.7 Tourer review.
• 
  Volkswagen Golf Alltrack (2020 - 2024) (Reviews)
  Those who do choose an Alltrack will be rewarded with an estate car that can do pretty much everything. The Volkswagen Golf Alltrack is an off-road estate car. It’s a niche offering, but demonstrates that an SUV isn’t the only solution. Being offered with a diesel engine only may limit its appeal, however. The Volkswagen Golf Alltrack has the potential to be all the car you ever need.
• 
  Volkswagen Golf Estate (2020 - 2025) (Reviews)
     The Volkswagen Golf Estate is a great all-rounder. It has a big boot and an image that transcends class boundaries. It’s also a very practical alternative to buying an SUV. In a world where everyone seems to want an SUV , traditional family wagons such as the Volkswagen Golf Estate are a dying breed.
• 
  Volkswagen T-Roc Cabriolet (2020 on) (Reviews)
  It might be based on an SUV, but you need to view it as a convertible designed for two, with the rear seats reserved for extra luggage space. It would be easy to be dismissive of the Volkswagen T-Roc Cabriolet, to write it off as a novelty act. But it’s better than that, and we welcome anything that breaks free of the norm. Just how abnormal do you want to be? Volkswagen predicts that SUVs will soon account for 40 percent of its overall sales.
• 
  Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace (2018 - 2025) (Reviews)
  When the latest Tiguan was launched in 2018, this left Volkswagen with a bit of a dilemma. This five-seat lifestyle SUV has been an absolute sales hit for Volkswagen over the years, outselling most other compact SUVs despite being more expensive, thanks to its desirability.
• 
  Volkswagen Up GTI (2018 - 2023) (Reviews)
  It might struggle to justify its price premium over the 90PS car, but the GTI is an entertaining throwback to the old school pocket rocket. The Volkswagen Up GTI is the cheapest route into a hot hatch and provides genuine laugh out loud fun, thanks to its miniscule weight, playful handling and zesty turbocharged 1.0-litre engine. The Up GTI is the hot(ish) version of Volkswagen’s beloved Up city car, designed to compete with city car rivals like the Toyota Aygo and Peugeot 108 but also small hot hatches like the Suzuki Swift and Abarth 500 too.
• 
  Volkswagen Golf Alltrack (2015 - 2020) (Reviews)
  The Skoda Octavia Scout and the discontinued Seat Leon X-Perience are competitors from within the Volkswagen stable, but the Ford Focus Active is another SUV-inspired estate car. There’s also the larger Volkswagen Passat Alltrack, which has been axed in the UK due to slow sales. The Golf Alltrack stands out thanks to its chunky and upmarket styling.
• 
  Volkswagen Golf GTE (2015 - 2020) (Reviews)
  The Volkswagen Golf comes in many different forms. S, SE, SE Edition, Match, Match Edition, R-Line, R-Line Edition, GT, GT Edition, GTI, GTI TCR, GTI Performance, GTI Clubsport, GTD, GTE, E, R: these are just some of the many monikers associated with Volkswagen’s all-conquering hatchback that signify various levels of equipment, power or sportiness.
• 
  Volkswagen Passat Alltrack (2015 - 2020) (Reviews)
  The Passat Alltrack is a thoroughly convincing car – arguably the best model in the Passat range. But it was unable to compete with the countless family SUVs on sale, which led to Volkswagen axing it from the range in 2020. The Volkswagen Passat Alltrack competes in the small but fiercely competitive 4x4 estate market. Based on the standard Passat estate, the Alltrack boasts extra ground clearance, four-wheel drive and some protective body armour to enable it to go places the standard Passat models cannot reach.
• 
  Volkswagen e-Golf (2014 - 2020) (Reviews)
  It also has familiarity on its side. It’s very much like any other Volkswagen Golf from behind the wheel. For those who want an electric vehicle without anything weird or wacky, there is plenty of appeal. Fancy a sportier version of the Volkswagen e-Golf? Read our review of the Volkswagen Golf GTE here .
• 
  Volkswagen Golf SV (2014 - 2020) (Reviews)
  What does the SV in Volkswagen Golf SV stand for? It might surprise you to discover that it means Sport Van, which is the car’s official name in Europe. Perhaps sensibly, Volkswagen decided that something might be lost in translation in the UK, because the Golf SV is neither sporty or a van.
• 
  Volkswagen Passat Estate (2014 - 2024) (Reviews)
  Like its saloon counterpart, the Volkswagen Passat Estate is a significant step forward from the previous model. It’s sharper-looking, more spacious, more comfortable and packed with the latest technology. The all important load space has been increased - up to 650 litres from 603 litres, expandable to a huge 1780 litres by folding the seats.
• 
  Volkswagen Passat GTE (2014 - 2024) (Reviews)
  For those who tend to spend a lot of time on the motorway a diesel is still a better bet – and they’re cheaper to buy too. If there’s anything less offensive in the motoring world than a Volkswagen Passat then we’ve yet to discover it, and with the GTE the Passat gets even more sensible thanks to a plug-in hybrid powertrain. It mates a 1.4-litre TSI petrol engine with an electric motor and battery, which has enough power when fully charged to allow the Passat GTE up to 34 miles of quiet, electric-only motoring.
• 
  Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet (2013 - 2019) (Reviews)
  Not enough of you bought a Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet, which is why it has been consigned to the history books. Today, if you fancy a drop-top Volkswagen, your only option is the T-Roc Cabriolet. You can’t even buy a Golf Cabriolet.
