Volkswagen LED headlights as standard. Visually, the unique e-Golf , which always comes with four doors, can be recognised by its black painted and closed-off radiator grille as well as its very energy-efficient LED headlights that are part of the standard equipment. A blue trim strip ("e-design line") is integrated in the radiator grille and the headlights – this is another identifying characteristic of the new Golf models with electric or plug-in hybrid drive. Compared to xenon headlights, the LED system produces more light despite consuming less power. Another general identifying feature of Volkswagen electric cars is the distinctive C-shaped design signature of the LED daytime running lights in the redesigned front bumper. The contours of the daytime running lights transition into a narrow chrome strip beneath the large air inlet and above the front spoiler. In addition, the Volkswagen is of course identified as a zero-emission car by its model badges ("e-Golf") on the front sides of the body, the radiator grille and at the rear, as well as a VW logo with a blue background.
LED rear lights and aerodynamic wheels. At the rear, the e-Golf can be made out as a zero-emission car by such visual characteristics as the lack of exhaust tailpipes. Standard exterior features include a roof spoiler in body colour, dark-red LED rear lights and ideal aerodynamic balance of the 16-inch "Astana" alloy wheels with low rolling resistance tyres, size 205.
