Questions & answers
Luggage compartment — Volkswagen Golf Mk7
What features does the Golf Mk7 luggage compartment offer?
It includes split-folding rear seat backrests, a removable luggage cover, a load-through hatch behind the centre armrest, fastening rings, bag hooks, an optional luggage net, and a variable-height boot floor.
Can the Golf Mk7 rear seats fold completely flat?
The rear backrests fold forward in a 60/40 split to create a larger, roughly flat load area. They do not fold perfectly flush — there is a small step between the seat base and the boot floor.
Does the Golf Mk7 have a false floor in the boot?
Some models have a variable luggage compartment floor that can be set at two heights: the upper position creates a flat surface level with the folded seats, the lower position maximises boot depth.
