Several things can be said about the Volkswagen Golf series: including the polarizing reactions most buyers have towards their car. The four-cylinder engine is at the heart of the strong emotions, it is powerful for its class and delivers a large amount of torque.

Stop and Go

The restyled Golf Base is equipped with a 1.9-liter four-cylinder engine that utilizes 12 valves. The engine is mated to a N/A four-speed transmission. This has resulted in an increase in horsepower and torque over the 1992 version.

The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are drum. Steering is handled through a -steering -style configuration. The Golf uses drum-assisted brakes, with ABS support. Load balancing is provided by coil front springs and coil in the rear.

Statistics

The dimensions of the Golf Base are 64.60 inches wide by 153.10 inches long. It sits 55.60 inches off the ground. It seats a standard four passengers, with 2 doors. The wheelbase of 94.50 allows for extra leg room for the rear passengers.

The original manufacturer suggested retail price (MSRP) was $20,230 when new, with a dealer invoice cost of an industry-average price. This price was in line with the industry average price for a 2-door Sedan.

Fuel Efficiency

The 1993 Golf’s standard fuel system runs on diesel. The fuel is regulated electronically, with a fuel-injected style of design. The fuel capacity of the car is 13.70 gallons.

The 1993 Golf gets 26 - 30 miles/gallon on the highway and only 23 - 24 in the city. This is below average for a sedan car.
