Volkswagen Is Adding Driver Assist Features for 2016

If you wanted driver assistance features like blind spot monitoring and parking assistance, up until now you would have needed to pony up for a luxury brand, like Porsche or Audi.  For 2016, however, Volkswagen is adding these features to their Golf, Jetta, and Passat lines.

Different models offer different features, some standard, some optional, but this is the first time they've been available at all on many of the cars.  Below is a video of the convenience of VW's Park Assist feature.

Could a New VW Micro-Bus Be on the Horizon?




 
Although it has been rumored for a few years, now, a Volkswagen Microbus, or Bulli, could be unveiled as early as next year.  In theory, it would be available in with gas, diesel, and electric motors.
 
The iconic "VW Bus" of the 1960's and 70's conjures up some great flashbacks among many baby boomers of that generation.  It would be great to see a new version build the same sort of cult following.

http://www.vwofquadcities.com/new-inventory/index.htm?saveFacetState=true&year=&model=Passat&bodyStyle=&internetPrice=&lastFacetInteracted=inventory-listing1-facet-anchor-model-6

The Volkswagen Passat is not only an ideal family sedan, it also offers a great variety of variety in terms of pricing and engines. 
 
Starting with the Passat S, with an MSRP of just $21,349, the base 1.8 liter 4-cylinder provides 170 horsepower, with maintaining 24 mpg city/35 highway.  The Passat TDI Clean Diesel offers an outstanding 30/44 mpg.  Want more power?  We've got more power in the V6 SEL Premium.  This version muscles up to 280 horsepower from the 3.6 liter engine, comparing favorably with much more expensive luxury sedans.
 
A great looking, great performing family (or not!) sedan, with plenty of models to choose from.  Which Passat works for you?

The Volkswagen Tiguan vs Jeep Compass Limited

http://www.vwofquadcities.com/new-inventory/index.htm?saveFacetState=true&year=&model=Tiguan&bodyStyle=&internetPrice=&lastFacetInteracted=inventory-listing1-facet-anchor-model-7


If you are looking for a smaller SUV and have considered the Jeep Compass Limited, you should probably take a look at the Volkswagen Tiguan. 

Comparably priced (the Tiguan is actually over $600 less, based on MSRP), the Tiguan provides quite a bit more muscle for the money.  The Tiguan's 2.0 liter inline 4-cylinder engine produces 200 horsepower vs. the 172 horsepower Compass.  The Tiguan also outpaces in terms of torque (207 ft-lbs vs 165).

Horsepower- VW Beetle:  170 hp   Fiat 500-  135 hp
