KGP Photography guys was caught a next VW Rabbit (Euro Golf) in testing. A new, stronger character line can be seen spanning the Rabbit’s flank, and the door handles no longer intersect said crease. The front and rear of the car are pretty well covered, but the general shape doesn’t look very different than the Rabbit we already know and love. Powertrains are likely to remain largely unchanged, with a Euro-style range of petrol and diesel engines.
While no official date has been given for new Golf-Rabbit, the model is expected in European showrooms in 2008. American fans won???t see the car until 2009 or 2010. This makes a degree of sense given that the current Mark V model has been on sale abroad since 2003, but only on offer (as the VW Rabbit) in the U.S. since last summer.
