    Volkswagen's full 'IQ Drive' active safety suite is standard across the Golf eight range, including freeway speed auto emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring with rear cross traffic alert, safe exit warning, adaptive cruise control, and emergency assist.

    The Golf eight also has eight airbags and secures a maximum five-star ANCAP safety rating to the 2019 standards.

    The VW range is covered by a five year and unlimited kilometre warranty, with included roadside assist. To bring servicing costs down, the brand offers pre-packaged 'Care Plans' which covers servicing for either three or five years at the time of purchase at $1200 or $2100 respectively.
