Volkswagen has announced prices for sportier versions of the Golf. Named GTD e GTI, both have a more dynamic and differentiated aesthetic than the rest of the models and are more complete and richer in equipment. They can be ordered with three or five doors. Volkswagen Golf GTD La Volkswagen Golf GTD It is equipped with a 2.0-horsepower 184 TDI CR engine and can be ordered with a six-speed manual transmission or with a sequential six-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission. Also included is the BlueMotion package, which reduces average fuel consumption to 4,2L/100km (4,5L with DSG). Volkswagen Golf GTI Compared to the Volkswagen Golf GTI, this fits the 2.0 TSI 220 HP also offered with manual or…

In addition to the optimized chassis and torsionally rigid bodywork, the precise electromechanical steering wheel contributes to precise feel, which also contributes to lower fuel consumption compared to hydraulic power steering. First of all, he gave the development engineers the opportunity to install safety systems and driver assistance systems while driving. These include systems known from passenger cars such as active cruise control with collision warning, crosswind assist, right-of-way system, undersized parking warning, and a parking assist system in which the driver only controls the pedals. The presentation also pointed to the help in towing a trailer or flipping a trailer, which the driver conveniently controls using the rear-view mirror adjustment lever and ...

No, we are not talking about all-wheel drive, although all four may have it. We'll be talking about four new trump cards from the Volkswagen Group that will likely solve the problems they've been imagining due to deliberate misleading about diesel emissions. However, after a few months, four brands offered their new products to customers, all of which used the well-known design basis - a modular platform with a transverse engine (MQB). This year at the meeting of all candidates for the European Car of the Year award in Tannistest in Denmark, we had a direct opportunity to compare these four first crossovers and SUVs, which were born on the basis of common principles. Tiguan ahead of Ku and Ateco, the last ...

The largest Volkswagen in the world calls itself either Atlas or Teramont, pleases with its spaciousness and surprises with its appearance. It seems that this crossover would vote for Hillary, but, unlike her, it is convenient for everyone and therefore doomed to success. Chance meetings do not happen by chance. In San Antonio, Texas, we suddenly met Timofey Mozgov, the main Russian basketball player on the other side of the ocean. The LA Lakers center went out to chat from a nearby hotel and easily cut off all the banality about the cars that were cramped for him. “Well, Smart was too small,” this huge Russian finally took pity on me. Within XNUMX hours, I was driving the Atlas/Teramont, the largest crossover SUV Volkswagen has ever built. In fact, the car that Mozzie would definitely fit without any problems is called the Teramont - with the first letter T, like all Volkswagen crossovers and SUVs. Under this name, the crossover will be released in Russian ...

At 4,43 meters long, 1,81 meters wide and 1,68 meters high, the Tiguan is actually larger than the Golf Plus (which is exactly 4,21 meters long), but still significantly more compact than its large Touareg counterpart with Its body length is 4,76 meters. The representative of auto motor und sport had the honor to participate in the final tests of the car in Namibia. According to the company's marketing department, the new model belongs to the category of urban multifunctional vehicles, which are fully suitable for use by people who lead an active lifestyle in their spare time. The rear seat can be moved 16 to a horizontal position, and the trunk holds 470 to 600 liters. This concept is borrowed from the Golf Plus (by the way, the interior of the Tiguan shows a pretty close…

Meet the eighth generation Golf with diesel engine and manual transmission The new Golf is as traditional in terms of the range of features it offers as it is revolutionary in terms of how these functions are managed. As a rule, for Volkswagen, revolutionary technological changes are combined with carefully considered evolutionary developments. The model has slightly more pronounced edges, a more muscular line of the shoulders of the body, the height of the body is reduced, and the “look” of the headlights seems to be more concentrated. So golf is still easily recognizable as golf, which is good news. Under the packaging, however, we find quite radical innovations. The new ergonomic concept is entirely based on digitalisation, making the vehicle feel significantly different from its predecessors. In fact, the rejection of most of the classic...

Farther away from the Golf, closer to the Passat: with its larger looks and stylish design, the VW Jetta is aimed at the middle class. Now we can say one thing - Jetta impresses much more than the spacious trunk typical of the model. Do you remember the unassuming 1979 Jetta I, which was regularly referred to as "small car in front, container in back"? Well, now we can forget about the old role of the model, which for many years remained in the minds of most people as "Golf with a trunk." However, it is advisable not to erase from our memories the Jetta II, which our respected former colleague Klaus Westrup wrote about back in 1987, inspired by the special charm of a car that tries to do its job well ...

The GTE label is now clear to everyone. As with the Golf, the Passat is in addition to two engines, a turbocharged petrol and an electric one, and an electricity storage accessory with which you can get electricity from your home socket into a reliably powerful battery via the charging connector. A Passat equipped in this way is certainly something special, not least because of the price. But since, like the Golf GTE, the Passat will be very richly stocked with this label, they probably won't have too much trouble selling Europe's biggest car. In short, the basic technological situation is this: without a turbo-petrol engine, it would not work, so it has a four-cylinder engine with the same working ...

First Impressions of Volkswagen's Newest and Most Affordable SUV Model There's definitely a place for the T-Roc in the sun. Even apart from the favorable market conditions that have made crossovers a boundless hit in the last (and likely next) decade, the developments in the Volkswagen lineup have themselves freed up enough space for the compact SUV - the Tiguan has grown significantly over the generations, and the new extended version of the Allspace has added even more 20 centimeters to his impressive physique. All of this is the perfect premise for a fresh and dynamic option for a younger audience that draws on sporty spirit in design, entertainment and modern electronics in equipment. In this sense, a close relative of Audi in the second quarter, more attention is paid to the first letter of the SUV acronym than ...

Video This is exactly what the people of Volkswagen had in mind: this CC looks unmistakably like a member of the Passat family, but at the same time is very different from it. He has no role model; the idea has been realized in modern times by the Stuttgart CLS, but in a different size and in a completely different price range. Therefore, CC also has no direct competitor and therefore, if we meddle a bit in the space of strategists, it does not have a typical buyer. Now. However, it has Cece's coupe-like side silhouette, and while we're only talking about the main features, the CC seems to be the result of a classic school of design: a low and sloping rear roof, frameless door windows, elegant design. and a dynamic look, a sportier look…
