Volkswagen Golf Country | History & Tech Specs of the Off-Road Golf 2 (1990 1991)

Discover the story of the Volkswagen Golf Country — the unique off-road version of the Golf Mk2. Produced between 1990 and 1991 in collaboration with Steyr-Daimler-Puch, fewer than 8,000 units were built, making it one of Volkswagen’s rarest models. This documentary covers its origins, technical specifications, special editions, and why it is considered a pioneer of the modern crossover trend. Learn about its 1.8L engine, Syncro all-wheel drive system, lifted suspension, protective skid plates, and iconic rear-mounted spare wheel. A cult classic that blended hatchback practicality with SUV ruggedness, the Golf Country remains a fascinating piece of automotive history. This film documents also the Biagini Passo, the rare Italian cabriolet conversion of the Golf Country. #Volkswagen #VolkswagenGolf #GolfCountry #Golf2 #ClassicCars #CarHistory
