VW Golf Bluemotion 1.9 TDI 5dr (2008) CAR review

VW Golf Bluemotion 1.9 TDI 5dr (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Dan Trent, 08 July 2008 11:30

Blue is the new green and Volkswagen's eco-friendly line-up continues to grow. Alongside the Polo and Passat, the Golf has now had the Bluemotion treatment – but at what price? If you want that silver sliver badge on the front, it'll cost you as much as £1290 over the price of a comparable regular TDI Golf. Order a five-door Golf ...

Ford Mondeo 1.8 Econetic (2008) CAR review

Rated 2 out of 52

Another week, another mainstream model that's been 'greened'. Ford is launching Econetic models across its range – with the common goal of boosting economy and battering emissions. The new Mondeo Econetic goes on sale in July 2008 and it enters a pretty busy sector; we've already tested numerous VW Bluemotion models as well as Seat's Ecomotive versions. The Mondeo follows ...

VW Passat 1.9 Bluemotion (2008) CAR review

VW Passat 1.9 Bluemotion (2008) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

The Passat Bluemotion is part of a burgeoning range of eco-Volkswagens. The Polo Bluemotion started things off, but it is the dearer, more mainstream stuff  - like the Passat - that will make VW money. Indeed, UK stocks of the Passat and Golf are already sold out for months. What have they done to make Blue go green? More than ...

Ford Focus 1.6 Econetic (2008) CAR review

Ford Focus 1.6 Econetic (2008) CAR review

Rated 4.5 out of 54.5

Glen Waddington, 30 April 2008 12:44

Ford’s gone green with the Focus Econetic, so you can put that order for a Toyota Prius on hold. Stick a pair of sill extensions and narrow tyres on a Focus, lower it, and you get a drag factor of 0.31 and a class-leading carbon output of 115g/km. It even comes with a natty little Econetic badge on the bootlid, ...

VW Polo Bluemotion 1.4 TDi (2007) CAR review

VW Polo Bluemotion 1.4 TDi (2007) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

If 4Motion means four-wheel drive, what’s this Bluemotion all about? Nothing to do with four-wheel drive - or going fast. It’s Volkswagen’s ecological brand applied to the most efficient and economical models in each range, so probably should have been called Greenmotion. A Passat Bluemotion was unveiled at the Geneva show and other versions will follow. So how green, sorry, ...
