New EU6 Engine Generation Now Available in the Golf Cabriolet

  • Fuel consumption up to 15 per cent lower
  • New radio and navigation systems are also available for the Cabriolet

A new engine generation is now providing more driving fun in the Golf Cabriolet. At the same time, fuel consumption figures for the four TSI and two TDI engines have been lowered by up to 15 per cent.

The new TSI engines in the Golf Cabriolet now deliver 77 kW / 105 PS, 92 kW / 125 PS, 110 kW / 150 PS and in the case of the GTI Cabriolet 162 kW / 220 PS. Diesel engines are available with 81 kW / 110 PS and 110 kW / 150 PS. Enhanced driving fun without regrets is on offer in the Golf GTI Cabriolet, for example: the 220 PS Cabriolet accelerates from 0 –100 km/h in just 6.9 seconds, (predecessor 210 PS and 7.3 seconds). At the same time, fuel consumption (NEDC) falls by more than 15 per cent to only 6.5 l/100 km.

The diesel engines of the new generation are even stronger and more efficient than their predecessors. In the 2.0 TDI with 150 PS, for instance, this means: 10 PS more power, a torque increased by 20 to 340 Nm, an improvement in acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h of seven tenths of a second (9.2 seconds) and all of this while consuming half a litre less fuel (4.6 l/100 km). Furthermore, all engines conform to the EU6 emissions standard.

Also new on board are members of the latest generation of radio and navigation systems, namely the radios “Composition Colour” and “Composition Media” (including large multi-coloured touchscreens and eight loudspeakers). As an add-on feature, the navigation function “Discover Media” is available, which permits functions such as telephoning via Bluetooth. In addition, all updates for the navigation software for the first three years are included.

1.2 TSI 77 kW / 105 PS fuel consumption in l/100 km: 5.2 – 5.1 (combined);
CO2 emissions in g/km: 119 – 117 (combined); efficiency class: B

1.4 TSI 92 kW / 125 PS fuel consumption in l/100 km: 5.5 – 5.3 (combined);
CO2 emissions in g/km: 127 – 121 (combined); efficiency class: B

1.4 TSI 110 kW / 150 PS fuel consumption in l/100 km: 5.5 – 5.2 (combined);
CO2 emissions in g/km: 128 – 120 (combined); efficiency class: B-A

2.0 TSI 162 kW / 220 PS fuel consumption in l/100 km: 6.5 (combined);
CO2 emissions in g/km: 152 (combined); efficiency class: C

2.0 TDI 81 kW / 110 PS fuel consumption in l/100 km: 4.3 – 4.2 (combined);
CO2 emissions in g/km: 111 – 109 (combined); efficiency class: A

2.0 TDI 110 kW / 150 PS fuel consumption in l/100 km: 4.7 – 4.2 (combined);
CO2 emissions in g/km: 125 – 110 (combined); efficiency class: A

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers.  The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience.  So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf.  In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...

Volkswagen Group Records Best Ever First-Half-of-Year Sales

With 5.5 million vehicles in customer hands after the first six months of 2018, the Volkswagen Group is seeing the best performance of its history. Group deliveries increased significantly in all core regions,” said Fred Kappler, head of sales for the Group. “Our core brands recorded strong growth in the first half year.” For the year-to-date, all of Volkswagen’s brands had sales bumps. MAN, SEAT, and Skoda led the sales charge with performances 24%, 17% and 11% better than the previous year. The big sellers, too, had strong sales periods, with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, and Volkswagen sales rising 3.5%, 4.5% and 6.3% respectively. That last figure is particularly good new for the board, since Volkswagen alone sold more than 3 million vehicles in the first half of 2018. As Kappler stated, the numbers are equally good when you break sales down by region. Brazil and Russia were the most improved markets (22% and 20%, respectively), while strong sales in Europe and China (u...
