Here’s How Much You Can Expect from Your TDI Buyback

Earlier today Volkswagen, the FTC, the EPA, and other government agencies announced that they’d agreed on a settlement, the sum total of which could cost VW nearly $15 billion. This morning it was indicated that Volkswagen would be paying between $12,000 and $44,000 (accounting for Audis) to TDI owners based on a number of factors. Now we know what the buyback values are likely to be car-by-car.

The values are published in the full case filings published today at ftc.gov. The values are based on what the cars were worth before September 2015, when the scandal broke. The values quoted below could change, however, if your car has higher or lower than standard mileage when you sell your car back.

If you choose to sell your car, you will get the value of your car, as laid out below, plus a cash payment—also listed beside your vehicle in column 2 of the chart, labeled “Approved Emissions Modification.” If, however, a fix is possible and you opt for it, you will get it free of charge as well as the cash payment of between $5,100 and $10,000 (accounting for Audi owners) listed beside your car in column 2, labeled “Approved Emissions Modification.”

Lessees, meanwhile, will also be entitled to a cash payment, as listed in the chart below, in the second chart. You will also have the option of terminating your lease, without penalty, or hanging on to your car and waiting for a fix if and when it becomes available.

The charts below are simplified versions compiled by the NADA. For a full list of buyback values, by vehicle, trim level, and options visit ftc.gov.

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...
