Differences between Golf 6 and 7: 1. Different platforms: Golf 6 is built on the PQ35 platform; Golf 7 is built on the MQB platform. 2. Different suspension configurations: Golf 6 uses independent suspension; Golf 7 uses torsion beam non-independent suspension. 3. Different body dimensions: Golf 6 measures 4199mm in length, 1786mm in width, 1479mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2578mm; Golf 7 measures 4259mm in length, 1799mm in width, 1476mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2637mm. Golf 6 is a compact sedan that abandons Volkswagen's family-style 'large U-shaped front grille,' with an overall front-end design more reminiscent of the Volkswagen Scirocco, and its side profile resembles the domestically produced fourth-generation Golf.

What Types of Vehicle Insurance Should You Purchase?

Vehicles must purchase four types of insurance: compulsory traffic insurance, third-party liability insurance, no-deductible insurance, and vehicle damage insurance. The only mandatory insurance when buying a car is compulsory traffic insurance. Compulsory traffic insurance is a mandatory insurance in China that all vehicles must purchase. In the event of a traffic accident, the insurance company can only compensate the party that was hit, meaning the conditions for compensation are relatively limited. Additionally, if compulsory traffic insurance is not purchased, the vehicle will lose its eligibility for annual inspection. Below is additional information: 1. Compulsory Traffic Insurance: Compulsory traffic insurance is a national mandatory requirement; without it, the vehicle cannot be driven on the road. It serves as a basic safeguard, similar to medical insurance in personal insurance. Although compulsory traffic insurance is relatively inexpensive, due to its limited coverage, it is necessary to supplement it with other commercial insurance. 2. Third-Party Liability Insurance: Third-party liability insurance refers to compensation provided by the insurance company for losses suffered by a third party (person or property) in the event of an accident. For example, if you accidentally damage someone else's car or cause injury or death while driving, the insurance company will compensate according to the policy terms. 3. No-Deductible Insurance: In most cases, vehicle insurance does not provide full compensation, and the policyholder must bear a small portion of the costs. However, with no-deductible insurance, the insurance company will also cover the portion that would otherwise be the policyholder's responsibility. 4. Vehicle Damage Insurance: In the event of an accident, this insurance compensates for the loss or damage to your own vehicle.
