Re: Sunday Drivers question
Quote:
The Volkswagen Golf was renamed the Rabbit in the US just because it sounded like a better name in the market (it was called the "Caribe" in Mexico). The sport of golf was stereotypically a rich man's pursuit in this country, and VW wanted the car to appeal to entry-level buyers and women. The Golf Mk 2 and on returned to the original name as the sport diversified. Beware the information found in internet listicles. They are very often filled with inaccuracies, as they are considered easy clickbait work. Last edited by ColBosch; 06-18-2018 at 04:56 PM. |
