INTRODUCING THE NEW VOLKSWAGEN GOLF IN VALENCIA

Today at 20:30 am, was presented the new Golf in Spain, with very few changes (mainly because the possibility of having one car with lower CO2 emissions and a more environmentally friendly engine. Volkswagen decided not to do it. Link GREENPEACE campaign).
The site chosen for the presentation, is the Palau de les Arts (City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia).
The presentation is in the artificial pond at the Palau de les Arts, and although there is one VIP area, you can see up close.
