VW Touareg 3.0 Hybrid (2010) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 02 August 2010 13:52

When the original Mk1 VW Touareg was released in 2002, CAR Magazine drove it across North Africa and even let the real Tuareg tribespeople have a go in it across the Sahara. Now our own Georg Kacher has had a go in the latest hybrid version. 4x4=bad, but hybrid 4x4=good? This is the first VW to use the same hybrid technology as the Porsche Cayenne. The big VW ...

VW Bluesport concept (2009) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 23 June 2009 11:30

Since its launch 20 years ago the Mazda MX-5 has effectively ruled a class of one, but, finally, two decades on, it may have a challenger. At the start of 2009 at the Detroit motor show, VW unveiled the Bluesport concept, a two-seat mid-engined roadster that’s scheduled to go on sale in early 2012 for around £20k. What's more, the concept ...

VW Polo 1.2 TSI 5dr (2009) CAR review

The new Volkswagen Polo could be one of two things: A) a shrunken Golf, which despite hardly changing from Mk5 to Mk6, still leads the mid-sized hatchback class as middle England’s favourite runabout. Or B) nothing more than a reskinned Seat Ibiza, which although well built, is hardly dynamically inspiring. Now we’ve driven the new VW Polo (2009), we can ...

VW Golf 1.4 TSI (2009) CAR review

2.5

Georg Kacher, 08 September 2008 12:26

This is the first drive of VW’s new-but-same-again Mk6 Golf, a car brought forward from 2010 to 2008 to counteract slow sales and a costly and lengthy build process. But with only mildly revised looks inside and out, can the new VW Golf match the Ford Focus and Renault’s forthcoming Megane? Read on for our verdict on the Golf, and ...

VW Tiguan 2.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

Georg Kacher, 24 September 2007 01:38

Why is VW so late to the 4x4 party? Blame management, complicated model cycles and just about every other excuse under the sun. And speaking of the sun, those countries from the land of the rising sun have been doing the medium-sized 4x4 thing since the mid-1990s. Toyota launched the Rav4 over a decade ago, let's not forget. Only this ...

VW Golf Estate 2.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 11 May 2007 06:22

Volkswagen took their time unleashing this handsome devil Yes, the previous VW management dithered, discussed and delayed the project until it was almost past its sell-by date. In July 2007, two full years behind the original schedule, the third-generation Golf Variant will finally appear in right-hand drive form. “Initially, we thought that the Touran and the Golf plus could together ...
