I gotta say, that's pretty cool... :clap:
83.5 mpg, impressive.
Impressive x 83!
This will probably equate to ~70MPG by US measurements ... still impressive.
VW engineers are on their game... now lets see if it will make it over here.
In the past 10 years VW have made some great products for the euro market.
One that comes to mind is their 1.6 Supercharged and Turbocharged engine.
Ugh... why cant we get that over here?!?!?!?!?!?!
Imagine that technology in a light Miata Roadster... 200 safe HP with a flat torque curve in a 2400lb car. ::Rant::
That's pretty close - my math sez ~69 gallons. Still impressive, if it bears out in real-world driving conditions.Quote:
