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

Watch: The Stig Drives (nearly) Seven Generations of Golf GTI

With Volkswagen announcing “major” updates to the Golf, it seems an appropriate time to look back on what we’ve had so far. And who better to guide us through the rich history of the most popular European car ever made than Ben Collins, the former Stig? Some say he’s never met a GTI he doesn’t love, and that he can’t grow any of his own facial hair. All we know is … Ben Collins is actually a pretty solid presenter. Working his way through seven generations of the GTI (skipping over the Mk6) Collins tells us a little bit about each one and matches each mark to its corresponding facial hair craze. The Mk1 GTI for instance, is light and quick, but can lose traction under hard acceleration (in heavy rain). Despite that, Collins calls the Mk1 a “pure gem.” The Mk4, meanwhile, is a powerful return to form after the perhaps too sensible Mk3. Collins ends in the only way he could, with the Mk7, which accelerates faster than a Lamborghini Countach and is all kinds of wonderful. Watch, ...

Watch: The Story of the Ads that Made VW Big in America

The ads for the original Beetle are almost as famous and well-loved as the Beetle itself. Looking back now it’s easy to forget, though, just how easily things could have wrong. A new short from Dial M Films tracks the history of those early Volkswagen ads that sold America on the people’s car. The story, of course, begins with the visionary agency that made the ads: Doyle Dane Bernach (DDB). As a popular agency for Jewish products, no agency was more aware of the implications of Volkswagen, and no one, it seems, was more skeptical of the brand than DDB. “Remember Those Great Volkswagen Ads?” from Dial M Films on Vimeo . William Bernbach, though, was adament that the firm take the client, probably as a way of attracting other lucrative automotive clients. Saddled with a client that he didn’t want, art director Helmut Krone says in the film that he originally came up with ads that were all wrong. Krone tried to do what other manufacturers did and was intent on selling the Beetle ...

Watch: The Zerouno Cruis’n USA

ItalDesign is drumming up excitement for its new supercar based around the same 5.2-liter Audi V10 that powers the R8. Naturally, it hit the road for a cruise around California last week to celebrate Monterey Car Week. There isn’t much in the way of V10 noise—which is a real shame given the sound it makes—but you do at least get a good look at the car inside and out in this video. With a body made entirely of carbon fiber and designed to be as aerodynamic and light as possible, ItalDesign figures that it will be good for a 0-60 time of just 3.2 seconds. “We put it our best skills into the production of the first car,” said Massimo Bovi, head of pre-series production, when the Zerouno was first unveiled in Geneva earlier this year. “Using some of the finest productions methods and engaging our high-skilled workers.” The car features clever aero tricks gleaned from single-seat racing, like a y-duct up front to improve downforce and turn-in. Available in a number of trim levels, the...
