VW Car-Net App-Connect

Volkswagen has transformed the Golf into a techie masterpiece with new custom features such as VW Car-Net App Connect, which works in conjunction with the 6.5-inch touchscreen.

VW Car-Net acts as your personal roadside companion with a built-in smartphone integration system. It works with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and MirrorLink to connect your personal smartphone to the car. The apps installed on your phone conveniently appear on the touchscreen so you can talk, text, get directions, and listen to music with the touch of a button. 

Driver Assist Technology

VW already has a driver assist package that uses unique technology to act as an extra set of eyes and ears on the road. The 2016 Golf VW version includes Lane Departure Warning (Lane Assist), parking steering assistance (Park Assist), Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, Autonomous Emergency Braking (Front Assist), Automatic Post-Collision Braking System, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and a rearview camera.

The Automatic Post-Collision Braking system works by instantaneously applying the brakes when the airbag senses a collision. Park Assist uses a specialized camera to locate parking spaces and help to park the vehicle in perpendicular and parallel spaces.

Lane Assist alerts drivers when the car unknowingly veers out of the driving lane. Lane Departure Warning will automatically steer the vehicle back into the driving lane.

The most wonderful aspect of these features is their availability, as most 2016 Golf VW versions include this technology.

Safety Technology

The 2016 VW Golf takes safety to another level. The vehicle includes anti-lock brakes with Stability and Traction Control that works in tandem with driver assist technology.

The CarNet system has an emergency function that offers roadside assistance, remote vehicle access, automatic crash warning, and even geo-fencing. Geo-fencing is a rather new technology that was designed with teen drivers in mind. It enables parents to set driving boundaries that the car recognizes and implements for teen drivers.

Airbag safety is also of key importance to Volkswagen. The VW Golf features multiple airbags, including front side airbags, driver knee airbags, and side curtain airbags.

The VW Golf has received five stars from the government for front and side collision safety, making it an excellent choice for you and your family.
