Golf Alltrack features a unique Driving Mode Selection that enables an Off Road Mode setting. This driving profile alters the ABS system and accelerator pedal character and activates a hill descent function, helping Alltrack deliver its performance off the beaten path. The available Off-Road HMI that is part of the navigation system displays compass, steering angle, and altitude when driving off-road. In a driving preview of the Alltrack in Seattle, media had a chance to take the new Golf Alltrack not only through hilly twists and turns, but also over a basic off-road trail as well. Although not a Land Rover with a fully articulated suspension, the Alltrack was able to pick its way up and down a rough, rocky trail with no missteps or mishaps—impressive performance for a wagon. Chassis. As a member of the modern Golf lineup, Alltrack is built on the same MQB chassis architecture as the rest of the line.
The stamped steel body and chassis boasts a large percentage of high-strength, hot-formed steel. This technology, along with the use of newly developed ultra-high-strength steels, allows much of the chassis and body to be constructed from thinner and lighter parts without any loss in strength. Additionally, due to the use of selective thickness for parts, a single component can be tailor-rolled to have as many as 11 zones of varying thicknesses. With the extensive use of modern construction techniques and high- and ultra-high strength steels, Alltrack’s chassis manages to remain lightweight despite its upscale features and enhanced crash structure. Throughout the car, attention to detail has optimized components—such as the seats, air conditioning system, and even the electrical architecture—to help save weight. At the same time, those seats, especially in the top trim SEL, are extremely comfortable, even off-road. The Alltrack has its own, unique suspension tuning, with a ride height that is raised by 0.6 inches. Up front, a strut layout uses coil springs, telescopic dampers, and an anti-roll bar, with a multilink arrangement with coil springs, telescopic dampers and anti-roll bar at the back.
The Golf Alltrack’s braking system features 11.3-inch vented front discs and 10.7-inch solid rear discs with standard three-channel ABS with electronic brake pressure distribution. The rack-and-pinion steering features electric power assist and features a 13.6:1 ratio that allows for 2.76 turns from lock to lock and a vehicle turning circle of 35.8 feet. Exterior. The Golf SportWagen body shape is evident in the Alltrack. However, despite the overall length and width remaining roughly the same at 180.2 inches and 70.8 inches, the overall height has been increased because ride height is elevated by 0.6 inches. This change in proportions helps to make for a bolder, more capable appearance without compromising the pillars of Volkswagen design DNA—tight, crisp lines and understated-yet-modern surfaces. The Alltrack’s profile also provides differentiation from the SportWagen, with body cladding on the side sills and around the wheelarches that carries over to the lower areas of the redesigned bumpers. Unique accenting can also be seen in the silver roof rails, Reflex Silver side mirrors and lower window chrome molding.
A panoramic sunroof is standard equipment on SE and SEL grades. Also obvious from the side are the standard 17-inch aluminum-alloy “Valley” wheels (18-inch “Canyon” on the SEL) and the ground clearance of 6.9 inches. At the back, the Alltrack sports dark-red taillights and a new bumper that is highlighted by dominant silver underbody protection, matching the style of the side sills and incorporating chrome exhaust outlets on either side. “Alltrack” and “4Motion” badging also make it clear this is a distinctly different vehicle than its Golf brethren. Compatible smartphone integration is a key part of this system, offering users the ability to run certain smartphone apps directly on the vehicle’s display through services such as Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and MirroLink. Alltrack’s infotainment system also offers AUX-in, SD card and USB multimedia interfaces with Apple iPhone and iPod compatibility, as well as a rearview camera display and Bluetooth technology with audio streaming for compatible phones.
