Volkswagen will use next month’s Frankfurt Motor Show to debut its new line of diesel-powered cars, called BlueMotion. BlueMotion will bow in the popular-model, Golf, along with 5 other VW models. The new technology uses an ultra-efficient diesel along with other technologies to increase mileage.
The new Golf BlueMotion is said to achieve a hybrid-rivaling 52 miles per gallon with a range of 745 miles. This is due to a 105 hp TDI that works with aerodynamic optimization, software motor management and low resistance wheels and tires. The new TDI powered Golf will add VW’s ninth super-efficient model to their line-up with several more on tap, including hybrids.
