大众美国公司在纽约车展发布了2017款高尔夫Alltrack量产版美规车型。在去年的纽约车展上，大众美国公司展示了高尔夫SportWagen Alltrack，而在今年车展上发布的是量产版车型。该车将于今秋上市，高尔夫Alltrack（车名中去掉了“SportWagen”）与去年在欧洲上市的欧版车型形成呼应。与标准版的高尔夫SportWagen相比，Alltrack版本离地间隙增加了几乎一英寸（约合2.54厘米），外观更粗犷。塑料车身防擦条和重新设计的前后保险杠与标准版不同，S和SE车型标配17英寸，SEL车型标配18英寸合金轮圈。该车还配备车顶银色行李架，车身侧面哑光侧后视镜，前后车底护板。车厢内标配真皮座椅（可选装褐色真皮座椅），背景照明，铝制踏板和车门侧踏板，信息娱乐系统集成6.5英寸电容彩色触控显示屏，倒车摄像头，可选装大众Car-Net的App-Connect功能。该车动力系统为一台1.8升四缸汽油引擎，功率170马力，扭矩199磅-英尺（约合270牛米）。新车上市之初只提供六速双离合器变速器，未来还将提供六速手动变速器。无论搭载何种变速器，该车都标配4MOTION四驱系统并结合第五代Haldex耦合器以确保无论车辆在何种路面行驶都能获得最佳牵引力。为进一步提升车辆在崎岖路面上的牵引力，在驾驶模式选择中提供了“越野模式”（Off-Road Mode），可激活陡坡缓降控制功能。Alltrack在实用性方面不逊色于普通高尔夫旅行车，该车行李箱容积为30.4立方英尺（约合860.8立升），如果将后排座椅放平，可提升至66.5立方英尺（约合1183立升）。虽然目前大众并未公布该车价格，但它注定要比2016款高尔夫SportWagen旅行车价格更高，后者在美国起价21625美元（约合人民币14.05万元）。
Production 2017 VW Golf Alltrack US Spec heading to New York
Volkswagen of America has taken the wraps off the 2017 Golf Alltrack in production guise and will have it on display later this week in New York.
It was at last year’s New York Auto Show where VoA exhibited the Golf SportWagen Alltrack and now the model is revisiting the Big Apple to show its production face. Set to go on sale this fall, the Golf Alltrack (without the “SportWagen” in its name) echoes its European brother which has been available for about a year now.
Compared to a regular Golf SportWagen, the Alltrack has almost one inch more of ground clearance and adopts a slightly more rugged body. Plastic cladding and redesigned bumpers differentiate it from the standard model, and there are also bespoke 17-inch (S and SE trims) and 18-inch (SEL trim) alloy wheels. The all-wheel-drive compact wagon also has silver accents on the roof rails, matte side mirror caps, and for the front & rear underbody protection.
Stepping inside, the cabin is a little bit more upscale thanks to standard leatherette seating surfaces and there is also the option of a brown leatherette exclusive to this model. The VW Golf Alltrack gets ambient lighting, aluminum pedal covers and door sills, along with a 6.5-inch capacitive color touchscreen for the infotainment system. Buyers are also rewarded with a rearview camera and extra connectivity options through VW Car-Net App-Connect.
Power comes exclusively from the familiar turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine delivering 170 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque. Initially, the engine will be linked only to a dual-clutch six-speed automatic transmission, but later on buyers will be able to get a six-speed manual as well.
Regardless of gearbox choice, the Golf Alltrack has a standard 4MOTION system with fifth-gen Haldex coupling ensuring optimal traction regardless of surface. To further improve traction on bumpy roads, there’s an “Off-Road Mode” for the Drive Mode selector which turns on the hill descent control system and also optimizes traction control for off-road surfaces.
The Alltrack version remains just as practical as the regular Golf SportWagen, so you will be able to enjoy a cargo capacity of 30.4 cubic feet with the rear seats in place. Fold the 60:40 split bench and the available space jumps to a generous 66.5 cu. ft.
There’s no word about pricing just yet, but it will be more expensive than a standard 2016 Golf SportWagen which in United States begins at $21,625 MSRP.
