The Golf SportWagen is scheduled to arrive in March or April of next year, which will then be followed by an all-wheel-drive 4Motion version and the Alltrack version in 2016. VW has high hopes for the Golf SportWagen, since it predicts that once all the versions are introduced it could make up 50 percent of all of the Golf sales in the U.S.
