How about a Performance Oil Burner...

US gets a very coveted and anticipated VW model, the Golf GTD. Accelerating 0-60 in 7 secs and gives you 40 mpg highway. A great intermediate offering with VW's new diesel technology before the super plug-in diesel hybrid XL1.

It will be interesting to see how it does.

A Diesel Jeep soon to be out there really gives some higher MPG offerings.

I've heard too much wavering from VW. I'll believe it's coming when the dealer tries to sell me one.
