Two Wagons with some similarities, but otherwise different in most aspects such as the starting price, horsepower, fuel economy, ground shadow size, and height. First of all, there is a notable difference in the starting price of the 2015 FIAT 500L, which is $2,280 less than the base MSRP of the 2016 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen. Also, a bigger engine usually means less mpg. But the 2016 Golf SportWagen has a more powerful engine and it gets 2 more mpg than the 2015 500L. And finally, the 500L is slightly smaller, but the roofline is taller than that of the Golf SportWagen. Among similarities are the body structure and maximum occupancy.
