[Tech Talk] DSG Transmission!















The Direct-Shift Gearbox or DSG (Direkt-schalt getriebe) is an electronically controlled, twin-shaft dual-clutch manual gearbox, without a conventional clutch pedal, with full automatic, or semi-manual control. In simple terms, it is two separate manual gearboxes, contained within one housing, and working as one unit. It is designed by BorgWarner and initially licensed to Volkswagen Group (which owns the Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, and Škoda brands). By using two clutches, fast shifts can be achieved, and the torque converter of a regular automatic transmission is eliminated. The DSG Transmission comes equipped on the 2008 Volkswagen GTI, GLI and Eos models.

Boston Volkswagen Indoor Warehouse!









With the winter season in New England it's sometimes difficult to want to take the time that is necessary for a customer to decide which vehicle they really want. Who can honestly say the experience of doing a walk around of a new vehicle in the middle of the rain or snow is comfortable? I am sure we all agree it's just the opposite. That's why we are now storing our inventory indoors at our new Boston Volkswagen Warehouse. It's heated, good lighting and most importantly, protected from the elements. We now offer our customers the option of taking a walk through and the time they need to decide which vehicle fits their needs and then conveniently take it for a test drive. Just give us a ring and let us know how we can assist. [Jason G - Internet Sales]

The All New VW Routan!











2009 Volkswagen Routan

By JONATHAN WONG

To fill the people mover void in its lineup, Volkswagen will add a minivan sourced from Chrysler. The VW Routan is basically a Chrysler Town & Country/Dodge Grand Caravan clone wearing unique Volkswagen design treatments in front and back.

For the interior, the Routan does not get Chrysler's heralded Sto-‘N'-Go seating, but instead will equip all Routans with second-row captain’s chairs. Available features include a rear seat entertainment system with two 9-inch screens, navigation system, power lift gate and dual power sliding doors.

Two engines are offered--a standard 3.8-liter V6 with 197 hp and 230 lb-ft of torque, or an optional 4.0-liter V6 with 251 hp and 259 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic transmission is standard on both engines. Traction and stability control are included as standard features.

Suspension tuning was done by Volkswagen in Germany. Traction and stability control are among the standard safety features.

Official price information has not been released, but Volkswagen says the Routan will start below $25,000 and be sold exclusively in North America.

Golf GTI is One of “10 Best Cars of 2008”















American motoring magazine “Car and Driver” picks ten favorites

Wolfsburg, GERMANY - The staff at US motoring magazine “Car and Driver” (January 2008 issue) have chosen the Golf GTI as one of the “2008 10Best Cars”. The GTI had already made a return to this list last year — following an absence of 21 years — and has now successfully defended its place in 2008.

The selection was made from a total of fifty vehicles from American, European and Asian manufacturers. It was the balanced concept of the Golf GTI in particular that impressed the jury. On the one hand, it has true sporting attributes — supported by the intelligent DSG automatic gearbox — and, on the other, it does not compromise in terms of comfort, for example, space and high-quality feel.

The editors were mainly impressed by the GTI chassis, however. It delivers composed and precise responses that the American experts believe result from the "autobahn breeding" of the GTI.

The Golf GTI is available in Germany with the 2.0l 200PS engine from €25,650. The two special models "Edition 30" and "Pirelli" — both with performance raised to 230PS — start at €29,175 and €30,175. GTI Best 10 [VW VORTEX]
