The Volkswagen Golf I is presented before the launch of a new model in Berlin September 4, 2012. The new model is planned to go on sale across Europe in November, replacing the 2008 sixth-generation vehicle. Volkswagen is hoping a sleek makeover will keep its Golf in the best-selling compact car spot, helping the German auto maker overtake Toyota and General Motors as the world leader.
