VW Golf GTD (2013) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 06 June 2013 12:00

The Golf GTI's oil burning alter ego is back, and in Mk7 guise, the latest GTD is faster and more frugal than ever. But is this a case of always fun til someone loses an i? What a difference a D makes. Not much of a difference at all, judging by the pictures. Visually, besides the badges, only different wheels ...

VW Golf GTI (2013) CAR review

2.5

Georg Kacher, 22 April 2013 13:00

This is the VW Golf GTI Mk7: the fastest, most frugal Golf GTI ever made. Is it just a subtle tweak of its Mk6 predecessor, or a truly great hot hatch worthy of the GTI name? To find out, we’ve borrowed a pre-production GTI for a revealing 350km shakedown experience in the Ile de France region around Paris. The car’s ...

VW Beetle Cabriolet 2.0 TSI (2013) CAR review

3.5

Ben Pulman (photography by Greg Pajo), 14 March 2013 09:00

VW’s range already boasts two drop-tops: the Golf Cabriolet and folding hard-top Eos. Now, the retro-styled VW Beetle joins the convertible contingent, and CAR has driven it in 2.0-litre Turbo guise to see how it stacks up. Clearly hoping that we winter-weary, Vitamin D-starved Brits would burn ourselves silly and write deludedly nice things while suffering a bout of sunstroke, ...

VW Up 5dr (2012) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 02 February 2012 10:00

This is the Volkswagen Up, a little city car we’ve been excited about ever since the first rear-engined and rear-wheel drive concept was unveiled in 2007. Alas a layout akin to the original people’s car (the Beetle) proved too expensive to develop in the 21st century, so the production car is standard urban runabout fare – i.e. front-engined and front-wheel ...

VW Up GT prototype (2012) CAR review

Ben Pulman, 30 January 2012 09:00

This is the huge Volkswagen Group’s smallest hot hatch, the VW Up GT. First unveiled as a concept car at the 2011 Frankfurt motor show, CAR has just driven a prototype version of the 108bhp baby GTI. Click here for more news and details of the regular Volkswagen Up. How does a VW Up become a VW Up GT? At the moment ...

VW Sharan (2011) CAR review

2.5

Al Suttie, 02 June 2011 13:00

The new VW Sharan slipped discretely into the MPV marketplace in 2010, replacing a people carrier that had been first launched in 1995. Back in the mid-90s, the Sharan was a product of a joint venture with Ford that saw the original Ford Galaxy, and the Seat Alhambra sharing the same platform. Ford went its own way in 2006, with ...

VW Passat 2.0 TDI 170 Sport (2010) review

2.5

Chris Chilton, 05 November 2010 09:12

Volkswagen says the new 2011 Passat takes… Actually, can I just interrupt you there to say the Passat Mk7 isn't new, it’s a bloody facelift. New lights, new grille, Bob ist ihr onkel. Okay, so the new, seventh-gen VW Passat does use the same platform as the 2006 car, but Volkswagen claims that every panel is new. But it manages to look almost ...

VW Touareg 3.0 TDI (2010) CAR review

3.5

Greg Fountain, 06 September 2010 10:30

Early adopters of the 2010 VW Touareg will see their cars being delivered from October onwards. And for some reason they will not be hated quite so fiercely as those who’ve ordered a Porsche Cayenne, even though the cars are broadly the same underneath and are, in the view of those with beards, equally reprehensible.Leaving the matter of planet salvation ...

VW Golf Blue-e-motion (2013) CAR review

Chris Chilton, 19 August 2010 09:36

A VW Golf Blue-e-motion? Fuelled by kangaroo poo, is it? No, ya great galah, it’s powered by electricity. The Golf Blue-e-motion is a prototype for the Nissan Leaf rival you’ll be able to buy from Volkswagen dealers in 2013. CAR drove the electric Golf in the world's biggest e-rally for a feature in the new Green CAR, a free 32-page supplement ...

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 ...
