The Golf does not use a wet dual-clutch transmission; it is equipped with a dry dual-clutch transmission. This type of transmission does not have hydraulic resistance, resulting in higher transmission efficiency and better fuel economy compared to wet dual-clutch transmissions. The Golf is a compact car produced by Volkswagen, with dimensions of 4,259 mm in length, 1,799 mm in width, and 1,476 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2,637 mm. The Golf is powered by two engine options: a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.2-liter turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 85 kW and a maximum torque of 200 Nm, with the maximum power achieved at 5,000 to 6,000 rpm and the maximum torque available between 2,000 and 3,500 rpm. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The 1.4-liter turbocharged engine produces a maximum power of 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm, with the maximum power achieved at 5,000 to 6,000 rpm and the maximum torque available between 1,750 and 3,000 rpm. It is also matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
