Volkswagen Wins ‘Best Car Manufacturer’ Award

Volkswagen has been named ‘Best Car Manufacturer’ at the prestigious Which? Awards 2015.  The trophy was presented yesterday in London, at a ceremony which recognised and celebrated businesses that deliver excellent products and services across a wide range of sectors from cars to retailers and banks to home appliances.  Which? is the largest independent consumer organisation in Europe.

Volkswagen was shortlisted for the award earlier this year, and emerged as the ‘stand-out choice’ according to Which? in the final judging.  The organisation commented: ‘All the cars from Volkswagen tested over the years are class-leaders.  We have tested three new cars over the past year and all were Best Buys.’  Which? continued: ‘Volkswagen is a popular brand with owners, scoring well for customer satisfaction in our annual survey.’

Peter Vicary-Smith, Which? Group Chief Executive, added: ‘A Which? Award is our way of recognising the businesses that share our ideals and offer products and services that improve their customers’ lives.  Good businesses can truly be consumer champions.  By treating customers fairly, businesses will be rewarded for their efforts with more confident consumers helping to drive growth in the economy.’

Volkswagen offers one of the widest ranges of cars in the UK, from the up! city car through the ever-popular Polo, Golf and Passat line-ups to luxury 4x4s, as well as cabriolets, coupes, MPVs and SUVs.  It also has a strong head office staff and network of just under 200 Retailers who strive to offer the highest levels of service, from the moment a potential customer visits the www.volkswagen.co.uk website, through their retail and ownership journeys to repurchase and beyond.

Alex Smith, Director of Volkswagen UK, said: ‘We are fortunate at Volkswagen to have a great range of products which win a large number of awards, but this stands out for me as one of the best.  A Which? Award is a genuine seal of approval from an independent organisation that proves we’re selling the right cars in the right way.  All the new products and services we offer are designed with the consumer in mind and we’ll continue to innovate to make our customers’ lives easier and better.’

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...

Volkswagen’s Gone to California with Grand California Camper

Volkswagen is bringing the California XXL concept to production. It will debut at the Dusseldorf Caravan Salon as the Grand California. It’s set to be based on the medium wheelbase Crafter van. That’s the company’s full-size commercial van, larger than the T6 Transporter based California. The high roof means room for adults to stand up, though it won’t get the concept’s extended length. The Grand California offers a full wet bathroom. It’s not exactly spacious, though, measuring in at around 31.5 x 33-inches. A toilet, shower, and sink are all crammed into that space, but at least there are motion sensor lights to stop you from reaching for a switch. Standard, the Grand California it comes with berths for two adults. Space for two children is optional, but they’ll be stuck in a berth amove the driver’s area. The kitchen offers a sink, stove, and two fridges. The front seats swivel to add seating space when the RV is parked. It’s also got solar panels, an integrated satellite dish,...

Audi Teases A7 Details with New Video

Audi’s gearing up to unveil the latest iteration of the A7, and to get you excited they’ve released this teaser video focusing on the details. The lights, the lines, the interior are all teased here, and though on its own the video doesn’t give us a strong sense of what the whole car will look like, with all of the other details we’ve seen so far we now have a pretty good sense of what’s coming. As you might expect, the updated A7 will look broadly similar to the outgoing A7, but will differ in the details. Based on what we’ve seen, the changes look good. As was reported yesterday, we’re expecting a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo, a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6, and an RS7 that could reportedly make up to 700 hp thanks to the Porsche Panamera’s hybrid drivetrain. We’ll know for sure, though, on Thursday, October 19, when the car is revealed. You can watch the livestream on our site or at audi.com at 2:00 pm.
