The Volkswagen Golf (listen ⓘ) is a compact car/small family car produced by the German automotive manufacturer Volkswagen since 1974, marketed worldwide across eight generations, in various body configurations and under various nameplates – including as the Volkswagen Rabbit in the United States and Canada (Mk1 and Mk5), and as the Volkswagen Caribe [1] in Mexico (Mk1).
The factory manufactured a range of fuel-efficient small cars with gasoline and diesel engines, all variants (or rebadged models) of Volkswagen's Golf: the Rabbit (79–84); Rabbit GTI (83–84); Rabbit Pickup (1979–1982); the Golf Mk2 and GTI (85–89) and the Jetta (87–89).
When Volkswagen took a can opener to the Rabbit, it created an '80s icon. With a 90-hp 1.8-liter engine, like the contemporary GTI, the Rabbit convertible was a quick and nimble runabout.
