¿Cuáles son los 8 carismáticos elementos de diseño en las 8 generaciones del Volkswagen Golf?

PRESS RELEASE - Mon, 22 Jul 2024 14:39:14

— El Golf es el corazón de la marca Volkswagen y una parte importante de la esencia del Golf es su diseño —

SOURCE: NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE

MIAMI, FL — 22 de julio de 2024 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — A lo largo de cincuenta años y ocho generaciones, el Golf se ha adaptado a las tendencias de su época, pero siempre ha sido una evolución del genial modelo original, manteniendo la funcionalidad de diseño paradigmática de la primera generación diseñada por Giorgetto Giugiaro.

Como relata Andreas Mindt, actual jefe de Diseño de Volkswagen, esta filosofía de mantener el espíritu original nació en la segunda generación del Golf y se ha mantenido hasta nuestros días.

“El entonces jefe de Diseño de Volkswagen, Herbert Schäfer, lo hizo todo bien: modernizó el segundo Golf, pero mantuvo el ADN de la primera generación. Esta transición fue sumamente importante para la historia de este modelo, porque eso es lo especial del Golf: que siempre ha sido una evolución del original».

Uno de los hilos conductores de las diferentes generaciones es que el Golf siempre ha mantenido unos elementos muy característicos, que al igual que su icónico diseño, han ido evolucionando sobre la base del ADN original.

1. La “cara” del Golf

Los faros y la parrilla del Golf siempre han sido los elementos de diseño más distintivos. Conseguir un “rostro” carismático era todo un reto en el diseño de la primera generación, que cambiaba por completo la configuración del Beetle.

Giugiaro lo consiguió con unas formas sencillas y rotundas, con una parrilla negra que cubría todo el ancho del frontal, sobre la que se incrustaban elementos redondos que contrastaban con las líneas rectas generales: los faros, a los extremos; y el logo de VW. El borde de la parrilla en rojo y las míticas siglas le dieron una nueva identidad en las versiones GTI.

Ese esquema básico, con la posición baja del frontal, como punto de convergencia del inclinado capó y la línea central de cintura; y una parrilla continua con elementos negros y la insignia central de VW entre los dos faros, se ha mantenido en todas las generaciones del Golf.

Pero esos elementos han ido evolucionando, con una mayor integración de las ópticas en el frontal, diseños más modernos y aerodinámicos, en el caso de la parrilla; y en paralelo a los grandes avances que han experimentado los sistemas de iluminación. Con el Golf IV llegaron los faros de xenon; y con el V, los Bi-Xenon. El Golf VI introdujo las luces diurnas LED y con el Golf 8 han llegado los faros delanteros LED Matrix.

2. El inconfundible pilar C

En las limpias líneas del Golf I de 1974 se destacaba el llamativo diseño del pilar C, que además de contribuir al equilibrio de proporciones del Golf y a la funcionalidad de carga de la parte trasera, se convertía en un elemento de diseño en sí mismo.

Desde entonces, es uno de los elementos más reconocibles del Golf. Para Andreas Mindt, “las características de diseño típicas del Golf, como los pilares C forman parte del ADN de Volkswagen”.

A partir del Golf IV, se le dio un nuevo impulso. Hartmut Warkuß, jefe de Diseño del Grupo Volkswagen hasta su jubilación en 2003, se preguntó, al diseñar ese modelo, cómo lo habría hecho Giorgio Giugiaro. “Creamos una forma atemporal intensificando el carácter del modelo a través de los distintivos pilares C, entre otras cosas”.

El diseño del pilar C de la cuarta generación enlazaba con el diseño del Golf I del año 1974 y lo llevaba un paso más allá. Al verlo, Giugiaro, expresó su admiración: “El material genético del Golf sigue siendo evidente”.

3. El pomo de la palanca de cambios más famoso del mundo

La mítica pelota de golf en la palanca de cambios de los Golf GTI fue una idea de la diseñadora Gunhild Liljequist -primera mujer que trabajó en Volkswagen Desing- que, aunque al principio sonaba descabellada, acabó convirtiéndose en una de las señas de identidad del Golf GTI.

“¡Fue una idea completamente espontánea!” explica Liljequist. “Simplemente expresé mis asociaciones deportivas y de golf en voz alta: ‘¿qué tal una pelota de golf como palanca de cambios?”.

Con diferentes interpretaciones a lo largo de los años, la pelota de golf ha llegado hasta el último GTI con cambio manual, el Golf GTI 380 de la octava generación.

4. Por detrás también es un Golf

El Golf siempre ha sido igual de reconocible en su vista trasera, por los volúmenes que el Pilar C contribuye a marcar y por unos grupos ópticos con mucha personalidad. En su primera generación anticipó la que iba a ser la posterior evolución de las ópticas traseras, con una versión muy compacta y otra más extendida.

Pero fue la segunda generación la que marcó una verdadera identidad, con sus famosas ópticas semi-trapezoidales, en una posición elevada y que se extendían hacia la aleta trasera; que dotaban al Golf de una personalidad única.

Este concepto básico se ha mantenido en todos los Golf desde entonces, aunque desde la quinta generación los faros traseros se han ido extendiendo hacia el portón del maletero.

Desde el punto de vista tecnológico, el Golf VI introdujo los grupos ópticos traseros LED; el Golf VII, los intermitentes traseros dinámicos; y en su última evolución, el Golf 8 ofrece, dentro del paquete de los faros Matrix LED «IQ.LIGHT», un grupo óptico trasero LED 3D con un escenario de bienvenida y despedida personalizable.

5. Insignias

Las insignias que el Golf y la versión GTI han lucido en su carrocería y en el interior también han sido una de sus señas de identidad y una muestra de la evolución del diseño de este modelo. El diseño y tipografía de la palabra “Golf” del modelo original solo se empleó en la primera generación.

La segunda estrenó un nuevo diseño, también en cursiva, que se mantuvo sin cambios en el Golf III. En la siguiente entrega se emplearon nuevas tipografías y, como en el primera, todas las letras eran mayúsculas. Ese diseño básico, con ligerísimas modificaciones, se ha mantenido hasta la séptima generación.

El Golf 8 estrena una nueva insignia trasera, con un nuevo estilo de letras cilíndricas que generan un relieve. Además, esta insignia está ubicada en posición central, bajo el logo de VW (en las primeras tres generaciones estaba a la derecha, y en las siguientes, a la izquierda).

El Golf original llevaba el logo de VW en la parrilla delantera, mientras que en la parte trasera lucía la palabra que nombra la marca. Desde la segunda generación, el Golf luce el logo de la marca –en sus diferentes evoluciones- en posición central, tanto en su frontal como en la zaga. En la última entrega, el logotipo delantero está iluminado. Desde el Golf V, el logo sirve para abrir el portón del maletero.

Las archiconocidas siglas GTI, han tenido un diseño aún más marcado y han sido parte del encanto diferencial de este modelo. Con pequeñas variaciones se han mantenido en las 8 generaciones (a excepción de los primeros años de la cuarta), luciendo en el frontal, la trasera y el interior.

6. Tapicería

El Golf siempre ha contado con tapicerías interiores modernas y de la máxima calidad. Pero si hay una tapicería especialmente carismática es la de tartán, que era uno de los elementos diferenciadores de la primera generación del Golf GTI. Gunhild Liljequist, creadora de esta genial idea, se enamoró durante un viaje a Londres de los estampados de cuadros escoceses que empleaban diseñadores de moda de Carnaby Street.

“El negro era deportivo, pero también quería color y calidad, y siempre me llamaron la atención los tejidos de gran calidad con estampados a cuadros… Se podría decir que hay un elemento de deportividad británica en el GTI». Los tapizados con diferentes patrones de cuadros escoceses se han mantenido, sin apenas excepciones, en todas las generaciones del Golf GTI.

7. Cuadro de mandos

La instrumentación del Golf es un claro ejemplo del carácter práctico de este modelo y de cómo ha ido evolucionando e incorporando los últimos avances tecnológicos. El primer cuadro de mandos mantenía el concepto general de diseño e integraba toda la instrumentación del coche en un único elemento rectangular.

Ese concepto se mantuvo hasta la cuarta, en la que se diferenciaron claramente el cuadro de mandos con una consola central cada vez más integrada en el diseño general. La octava generación da un nuevo salto en diseño, con la práctica desaparición de la consola central tradicional y la llegada de una pantalla flotante de grandes dimensiones.

Cincuenta años separan los elementos básicos del primer Golf (velocímetro, nivel de combustible, mando de luces, testigos básicos, radio y ventilación), con la actual vanguardia tecnológica, con un Digital Cockpit con pantalla de 10,2 pulgadas y el sistema de info-entretenimiento de nueva generación equipada con la inteligencia artificial (IA) de ChatGPT.

Entre ambos, una constante evolución marcada por la digitalización, con el aumento del número y tamaño de las pantallas, y de las funcionalidades que cada nuevo Golf iba ofreciendo a su conductor.

8. Llantas

Tras el diseño clásico de la primera generación, con llantas de 14 pulgadas de similar diseño en todas las versiones; en la segunda ya se ofrecían, opcionalmente, llantas BBS de radios de 15 pulgadas en los Golf más deportivos.

A partir de la tercera generación el diseño y el tamaño de las llantas del Golf ha ido tomando más relevancia, con una amplia variedad de diseños acordes a la estética de cada generación y un diámetro que ha alcanzado las 19 pulgadas el actual Golf R.

🇺🇸🇨🇺🇵🇷🗽 What a way to begin Hispanic Heritage Month and commemorate 25 years since 9/11 in New York.

Thank you to everyone who has read, commented, and shared. This story has now reached around 2 million people across platforms and traveled around the world.

This trip became an emotional homecoming. People traveled to New York not only to remember, but to return pieces of my family’s history.

The most precious was a photograph of Dad and me during my first summer working in his office on the 19th floor of the South Tower. We believed it was lost forever on 9/11. Ms. Carole, one of Dad’s secretaries—whom he helped survive that day—had kept a duplicate. After her passing, her grandson Frankie found it, along with my World Trade Center pass marked 2/19 (South Tower, 19th Floor). I’ve now been asked to submit this history to the National September 11 Memorial & Museum.

I also learned more about Dad’s life: my Cuban father was an early supporter and organizer of the National Puerto Rican Day Parade; his baseball career led to ceremonial first pitches; and in 1972 he received the American Heritage Award during a “Spanish Night” in New York. In 2025, I received the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award—continuing the legacy of service Mom and Dad began.

Agent Lee shared another chapter: when his family’s Chinatown restaurant was targeted by anti-Asian violence, my parents helped bring the community back—and I, a little girl in a She-Ra shirt, worked beside them asking, “What would Jesus do?” His family called me their 貴人 (Guìrén): a benefactor who arrives at the right moment.

The white suit and black dress I wore in New York belonged to Mom. Wearing them felt like carrying her with me.

As an only child, it has been my greatest honor to have always been by my late parents' side throughout my life and to care for them in their final years. I’m humbled that this story has connected us across different generations and borders.

Thank you for reminding me: “You might be far, but you are never forgotten.”

🇺🇸 My Father Survived 9/11—But 9/11 Ultimately Took His Life.

🇺🇸 Twenty-five years ago, my father, José Quintero Ramos, was on the 19th floor of the South Tower when the North Tower was struck. Dad had survived the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and knew something was wrong. He insisted his secretaries and coworkers leave. Holding hands, they formed a human chain and began descending the stairs.

🇺🇸 Then the second plane struck their tower.

🇺🇸 The lights went dark. Smoke, ash, and debris filled the hot stairwell. Dad gave others the handkerchiefs he always carried so they could breathe, leaving only his arm to cover his own face.

🇺🇸 As firefighters and first responders climbed upward, Dad thanked them and squeezed their shoulders. One young firefighter rested his face in Dad’s hand—like a son receiving a father’s blessing. Dad never saw him again.

🇺🇸 Dad and his coworkers escaped and crossed the street only moments before the South Tower collapsed at 9:59 a.m. Those with him later said they would not have survived without his insistence. His courage saved lives.

🇺🇸 For more than ten hours, we did not know whether he was alive.

🇺🇸 Covered in ash, blood, and cuts, he walked for hours across the Brooklyn Bridge to the Cathedral Basilica of St. James, where I was baptized. A priest wiped his face, embraced him, and prayed.

🇺🇸 Our family was blessed with nearly 19 more years—but Dad was never the same. He ultimately died from respiratory failure caused by the toxic air he breathed that day. He is now officially recognized as a 9/11 victim.

🇺🇸 On this 25th anniversary, I remain honor-bound as his daughter to tell his story—especially as 9/11 moves from living memory into history.

🇺🇸 9/11 did not end on September 11, 2001. Its toll continues whenever another survivor or responder dies from a related illness.

🇺🇸 May we remember those lost that day, those lost in the years since, and everyone still suffering.

🇺🇸 Daddy, your courage lives on. We will never forget. 🤍🕊️

🗽 🇺🇸 Daddy, I’ve returned to our home state to represent you at both private and public official 25th anniversary September 11th remembrance events in New York. 
🗽 🇺🇸 Your little girl is traveling solo, but safeguarded at each event by a private security team that has been prearranged for me—just another example of God’s favor and how our (good) reputation has preceded us. 
🗽 🇺🇸 It’s a reaffirmation of your protection over me still and a nostalgic reflection of the times when we all traveled together during our careers. 
🗽 🇺🇸 It is my honor to continue being your daughter and to carry the legacy. 🤍🕊️

🤍 🇨🇺 🇺🇸 🕊️ Grief and Daddy’s Little Girl.

Daddy, six years ago today, you entered eternity. Your courage on 9/11 helped others survive but ultimately cost you your life. You are now officially recognized among its victims.

Mommy passed in January. Nine months later came my MS diagnosis. A year later, on September 6, I lost you—five days before 9/11. Oh, September. We used to be friends because of fall and all things pumpkin. Not anymore.

This photo takes me back outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral. You were about to speak beside Rev. Jesse Jackson at a rally for 7,000 workers displaced by sugar refinery closures. I was seven. You handed me the mic, and I joked that kids loved sugar, families needed jobs, and we had to “keep hope alive.” I only wanted to make you proud—and get the steak sandwich and ice cream you’d promised near the World Trade Center.

Grief doesn’t take a holiday. “The death of a beloved is an amputation.” —C.S. Lewis

My parents taught me to serve and bloom where God planted me. Joshua’s special-needs diagnosis turned my grief into advocacy and a nonprofit for families. Service is our legacy and biblical calling.

But the Church must do better after loss—not only at funerals, but through the months, years, birthdays, and anniversaries. Grief is lifelong, not a race. Heaven doesn’t erase how deeply we miss their presence. Shepherding means calling, listening, and showing up so no one feels invisible or alone.

To those touched by how I honor my parents, thank you. To anyone grieving a loved one, disability, or special-needs parenting: I see you. You’re not alone. Jeremiah 29:11.

To the sweet mama in the UK: throw the plates if you need to. Jesus wept. Jesus got angry. He understands. Call me.

I know Mommy and Daddy are proud, yet my heart and soul are heavy. As the 25th anniversary of 9/11 approaches, I’ll go to NYC alone to honor Daddy.

Te amamos para siempre. 🤍

P.S. If anyone hears the rapture trumpets while I’m gone, tell God I have a VIP Express ticket—and I don’t mind pushing a few people out of the way. 🥹😇😂
