What is the ground clearance of the Golf 8?
1 Answers
The ground clearance of the 2021 Golf is 165 millimeters. The ground clearance of the 2021 Golf refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting plane, which indicates the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. Generally, the higher the ground clearance of the 2021 Golf, the better its off-road capability. However, if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds may decrease. The Golf 8 is a new-generation model (eighth generation) under FAW-Volkswagen, officially debuted at the 2020 (16th) Beijing Auto Show. The dimensions of the 2021 Golf are 4296 mm in length, 1788 mm in width, 1471 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2636 mm. Typically, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the ground clearance of the 2021 Golf is not static; it depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in ground clearance should be considered based on the load variations of the 2021 Golf. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and driving conditions. For urban areas with well-paved roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. For frequent travel to remote areas or regions with poor road conditions, a higher ground clearance may be preferable to avoid scraping or damaging the chassis, considering the vehicle's off-road performance.
