Volkswagen Golf GTI
The 2014 Volkswagen Golf GTI is a German three-door hatchback manufactured by Volkswagen. It is an updated year model part of the seventh generation (Mk7) Volkswagen Golf that was launched in 2012 and is a high performing model of the original Golf. The Golf GTI was first unveiled to the public at the 2013 Geneva Auto Show in Switzerland. Under the hood, the Volkswagen Golf GTI comes equipped with 2.0L turbocharged inline-four engine developing 220 horsepower at 6,200 revolutions per minute. Alongside with the Mk7 Golf GTI, Volkswagen also released the Volkswagen Golf GTI Performance capable of developing an additional 10 horsepower, however, this vehicle does not appear in any The Crew title. The Volkswagen Golf GTI first made its appearance in the first installment of The Crew. The vehicle is only featured in one spec, namely street spec, one of two vehicles in-game that has this restriction alongside with the Chrysler 300 SRT8. The vehicle can be purchased from the Detroit car dealer in Michigan with either 82,000 bucks or with 17,998 crew credits.
Remember the heady days in 2011 when Motor Trend magazine named the Chattanooga-made Volkswagen Passat(with Car DVD Player) its Car of the Year? Remember the heady days in 2011 when Motor Trend magazine named the Chattanooga-made Volkswagen Passat(with Car DVD Player) its Car of the Year? Praised for its functionality and value, the redesigned-for-North America 2012 Passat was a big hit with members of the automotive press and consumers. Alas, buyers of midsize cars are a fickle lot. In short, they want it all: durability, safety, performance and a dash of styling. The conservatively-styled Passat soon had some stiff competition from a dashing new Ford Fusion, a crisply-designed new Honda Accord and a refreshed Toyota Camry. Well, the home team clearly needs to put its rally caps on, and the newly redesigned 2016 Passat delivers a host of upgrades which should translate into new sales momentum. The new Passat boasts improvements in design, comfort, technology, safety and, perhaps most importantly, value. 22,440 in base trim, has new sheet metal 鈥?including a striking new face 鈥?a tastefully upgraded interior and a much-improved new telematics system.
Meanwhile, VW has managed to keep the cost of mid-trim Passats squarely in the sweet spot for family sedans. 27,420 before dealer installed options. 36,000. A new R-Line trim, positioned between the entry-level S and mid-level SE, offers some sporty embellishments at a reasonable price. The 1.8-liter turbo-charged engine in our Passat tester proved to be strong and responsive during our mid-morning test drive on Chattanooga highways. While it might not have as much off-the-mark torque as the Passat TDI or the Passat V-6, the gasoline-powered turbo is still lots of fun to drive. What about install Android Car Gps? It's sounds like a cliche, but there really is a noticeable difference in the driving characteristics of most German-engineered cars. The Passat's electronic steering is taut, and handling is precise. At highways speeds, the Passat also has one of the quietest cockpits in the segment, which means a lot if you do much long-range driving. Visibility is excellent in all directions, and it was easy for us to find a comfortable driving position. On the curving back roads around Chickamauga Dam, the nibble Passat was in its element. In the case of the new Passat, the bottom line really is the bottom line 鈥?the price. For about same price as cars from U.S., Japanese and Korean carmakers you can own a German-engineered, American-made driver's delight. And now that the Passat's infotainment and safety technology has caught up with the segment leaders, look for Chattanooga's first-born VW model to have the wind at its back for a change. If installing an Android Car Stereo in your car, that would be great!
It鈥檚 little surprise that the Volkswagen Polo is the reigning World Urban Car of the Year. When I first drove the latest version of the car last year in Hamburg, I was hugely impressed with the looks, the perfect weighting of the steering, the ride quality and the quietness of the cabin. Given the fact that the car also now is as big as the earlier Golfs, it seemed to me that the only time you鈥檇 really opt for the big brother was when it came to a GTI version. To be honest, that鈥檚 a minor complaint in the overall scheme of things, because the Polo GTI has a personality all its own and comparisons soon prove futile. The first thing you notice when you sit inside is just how premium they鈥檝e made the cabin. The clean dash, familiar from across the VW range, features an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system with six speakers. My test car also came with a technology upgrade pack for 鈧?99 that brings rearview camera, active info display, folding mirrors and a lights and vision pack to the party.
