A Volkswagen Golf rental is a variable compact car available in 2-door and 4-door hatchback models, which makes it a great rental choice for couples, families, and small groups depending on the model chosen. The Gold drives smoothly and offers plenty of room in the front seat as well as the back seat, able to hold up to 5 adults comfortably. Even though it's a small vehicle, storage space in the Golf is comparable to some larger cars. With 379 liters of storage space, the Golf can hold up to 4 large suitcases as well as additional smaller baggage and loose items. If that's not enough space, the rear seats fold down, nearly tripling the amount of space available. Couples with extensive luggage needs are well-suited to the Golf. The hatchback design makes loading and unloading the Golf and easy task, too. The Golf handles with precision on country roads and city roads alike, making it a suitable car for a trip to Paris as well as the Italian countryside. The Golf's size makes it especially great at navigating cramped city streets and parking in tight spots.

For a compact car, the VW Golf is surprisingly spacious and comfortable. The cabin feels large once you sit down, so travelers that might be deterred by the Golf's size should reconsider. The design of the Golf's body allows even the tallest passengers to feel comfortable. Every seat has a considerable amount of headroom and legroom. This makes the Golf a great rental choice for families as well as small groups. The seats are comfortable and supportive, so bumpy roads hardly register.
One of the Golf's best features, considering its size, is the amount of space afforded for luggage in the trunk area. At 379 liters, the trunk area is among the best in the Golf's class. That's enough space for 4 large suitcases and additional smaller luggage. The foldable back seats give travelers the option to add to their luggage, too, so couples with a more-than-average amount of luggage are covered in the Golf. The glove compartment serves well for storing valuables and travel documents that need to be kept from view. Likewise, the door bins keep personal effects at a handy remove.
