Waving goodbye to the Golf Estate SE, the Match Edition has joined the Volkswagen family in the United Kingdom.

Priced from £22,045 ($31,810), it adds almost £2,000 ($2,885) worth of equipment for just £100 ($145) more than the previous SE model, featuring 16-inch Dover alloy wheels, front fog lights, parking sensors and Mirror Pack with puddle lights and electrically adjustable side mirrors.

Inside, the Germans have upgraded the infotainment system, which works together with a 6.5-inch screen and comes with a 3-year subscription to live services, adding dynamic navigation with points of interest, speed limit display, a choice of three routes (Fast, Short or Eco) and dynamic live traffic updates. Heated seats, an allergy filter to the dual-zone air-con, headlight washers and heated windscreen washer jets are also part of the package.

Volkswagen has performed a series of upgrades to the Golf R, in both hatch and estate versions, which are now supplied with standard Discover Navigation system, heated windscreen washer jets, headlight washers and heated front seats, bumping their price by £500 ($720), as the cheapest Golf R now starts at £31,685 ($45,720).

Those interested in the Passat can now select the Active Info Display system, which is the brand’s version of the Audi Virtual Cockpit, regardless of the chosen model. This is joined by an infotainment upgrade, while the GT and R-Line trims get standard panoramic glass roof and the aforementioned Active Info Display. The Passat GT starts from £26,025 ($37,552) as a sedan and £27,575 ($39,790) as an Estate, while the R-Line costs £28,145 ($40,610) in the four-door and £29,695 ($42,845) in the five-door guise.

The VW Touran now packs an extra punch, as the 1.6-liter TDI has received a 5 PS (5 HP) upgrade, to 115 PS (113 HP). The mill is available on the S, SE and SE Family trims and doesn’t affect CO2 emissions, as the manufacturer explains.

Joining the regular Polo family are a variety of Beats special editions, in 3- or 5-door configurations, featuring a 300-watt sound system and styling upgrades and offered with a choice of four engines.
