VW Golf TDI: Driven!
Interesting driving report here of the VW Golf TDI.
There goes another one — a Mercedes-Benz S-class, doing at least 100 mph, shoulders aside my Volkswagen Golf TDI on a rain-lashed German autobahn.
It’s not like I can’t keep up, as the diesel-driven Golf will soon prove. But for now, I’m transfixed by the trip computer, which displays a Toyota Prius-like 52 mpg, the result of a long 60-mph cruise. This is not my favored autobahn pace, but fuel-conscious minds back home need to know. And with the world joining hands in recession and energy anxiety, might the frugal-yet-fancy Golf finally speak international hatchback love in a language Americans can understand?
