Since Volkswagen confirmed that the next-generation Golf would be completely electric, these new spy shots reveal what must be the last hybrid version of the iconic hatchback – the new GTE prototype.
Any changes the manufacturer made to the front bumper it concealed with smart camo applications. The headlights are still visibly new, and so are the taillights. Compared to the current Golf GTE (see video), the new version appears only slightly different in terms of design.
The photographer was unable to snap any interior shots, but the display in the middle is so large it is even visible through the side windows.
It may be too early to talk about powertrain modifications, but recent rumors have been claiming that Volkswagen intends to replace its entry-level 1.4-liter engine with a superior 1.5-liter one.
