Intellichoice predicts the Jetta TDI is better than average for ownership costs and has cheaper 5-year maintenance costs than a Sonata. Premium...
The ECU's desire to keep revs from dropping below idle makes it very easy to launch the vehicle. Diesels have a lot of torque because of the...
They don't have much off-idle torque because the turbo isn't able to do much boosting at that point. A lot of ECUs are programmed to try to bring...
The biggest reason is the Touareg. The later MkV Jetta and Rabbits have been getting above average reliability ratings, but the Touareg is pretty...
That's a good point, fun is very subjective. I'd still prefer a manual if my daily commute had lots of stop and slow, although others may not....
The fluid changes are not cheap either. I try to tell most people to stick with the 6-speed manual. It's cheaper, more efficient, and more fun...
Did the Fiesta really average 40.8? The trip totals box says it got 34mpg. [IMG] Good to see that both the Prius and Golf beat their EPA ratings.
There was enough market for VW to come up with the Golf GTD, Toyota has the Auris D-4D 180, Renault makes a Megane dCi 175, and I am sure there...
Strange looking taillight combo. New Flyer also delivered some hydrogen buses to Vancouver for the Olympics. I'm a bit biased, but am starting...
There's a few more than that: Jetta / Golf / A3 TDI Q7 TDI BMW 335d BMW X5d Mercedes E320 / GL320 / R320 / ML320 Bluetec But the VWs are the only...
I've said this before and will repeat it: Someone considering a Prius and TDI should probably consider the Golf. Like the Prius, it's a hatchback...
I'm curious how they figured out the greenhouse gas emissions. I'll be brief because I'm tired and possibly wrong because I'm not thinking too...
Re: Audi A3 TDI beats all for Green Car of the Year award , two wins in a row for VW/Audi diesels .. How did you determine that? Not every new...
Puebla does make Boras too, they end up getting sent overseas as kits which go to local plants for final assembly to avoid taxation. I'm not sure...
Yeah, the North American Rabbits/Golfs/GTIs are built in Wolfsburg. Except for the Golf Wagon, which is more closely related to the Mk5 Jetta and...
New Golfs other than the wagon are built in Germany. The same was true with the Mk5 Rabbits. My Mk4 Golf was made in Brazil. Other than the new...
True, they are extrapolating. The current Fusion is an updated version of the one we've had for many years, and the hybrid system is similar to...
I'm not confusing things. The info I quoted was reliability info from Consumer Reports, the same source which Jim was talking about.
The Fusion is rated more reliable than the Camry or Accord right now. It appears that they can build cars as reliable as Toyota.
Aha. fueleconomy.gov seems to have forgotten to make that distinction for the hybrid vs the non-hybrid.
