Versions with automatic transmission also receive Grip Control and HADC systems, keyless entry, heated lower windshield, LED fog lights. The version with a manual transmission is devoid of such equipment, which is offered for versions with an automatic transmission, but it receives the "Security 1" package: the "Active Safety Brake" auto-braking function, driver fatigue recognition, the "Line Correction Assist" lane hold system. The car in the Allure configuration is available with two engines and three types of gearboxes to choose from: a 1.2-liter 130-horsepower PureTech gasoline engine paired with a 6-speed.

Bored? But on the other hand, such a car receives thoroughbred summer tires (hello, cornering stability), and even with a higher profile (hello, comfort). And in his cabin there is orange stitching and decor on the doors. As a result, it turns out not boring at all, but quite normal modern European car "for every day", albeit without any special frills. Another example: an orange car in a car dealership is an Allure complete set with "mechanics", the most affordable version of Peugeot 2008. It is important to note that such a car is not identical to the "Allure + automatic" version: it lacks fog lights, engine protection, Grip Control, tinted windows; but there is a wide range of driver assistance systems (the above-described package "Security 1").

 At the top of the model range is the GT Line modification: the original Full LED headlights and its own radiator grille, the High Beam Assist adaptive high beam system, the Safety package (adaptive cruise, Active Safety Brake auto-braking, Lane Positioning Assist), frameless interior rearview mirror, Capy fabric / leather combination and dark ceiling, wireless charging for mobile phones, black roof, etc. The GT Line version is available with two engine options choice: 1.2-liter petrol engine 155 hp paired with 8-st.

Test drive Volkswagen Golf 8: inside - innovations, under the hood - "aspirated" and automatic transmission (no, not DSG) - conclusion

Someone talks about more load on the front wheels, but it came in handy when it was required to implement 360 Nm of traction and 150 hp. on a slippery road after a morning rain.

Yes, I am aware that the FWD compact hatchback format appeared a couple of years before the first Golf. Yes, I am aware that the British tried to rename the popular segment in the "Focus-class", but here it can be called "Octavia-class".
