It’s not only the angular, more masculine lines that differentiate the Alltrack from its less adventure-oriented SportWagen sibling. According to AutoBlog, the suspension is bumped up, it has the latest 4Motion all-wheel drive system, improved traction, and individual wheel braking for better handling. Plus, like the SportWagen, the Alltrack has a TDI turbocharged diesel engine option.

However, there’s no word on if we’ll see this bumpy-road-ready Alltrack version in the States. We’ll have to settle for the regular 2015 Golf SportWagen TDI—I can handle that!
