2011 Volkswagen Golf TDI

There are pros and cons to every vehicle but this one has more to offer than it offers in negativity including some nice points of practicality. 2011 Volkswagen Golf TDI is perfect for the cities in that it is small enough to fit into those difficult parking spaces. While not as small as the smart car, it is very easy to handle and maneuver which does add a bit of a bonus. It is a good quality car with a practical design.

The price starts at just under $18,000 new, although other sources may quote a higher price, and it gives great value for the price. It saves money on fuel in that the average costs for fuel a year can be expected to sit at just under $1500. This is due to its better technology that allows it to obtain an average of 34 mpg. This is between six and nine miles per gallon less than a regular gasoline run engine. While the carbon emission figures are still higher than other vehicles at 6.2 tons a year, it is much better than some on the market as well.

This small hatchback has a number of features available to go along with its fuel efficiency. It has a touch-screen navigation system that has a 6.5 inch screen and a 30-gig hard drive valued at just over $1750. It is also fitted with a sunroof valued at $1000 plus other features that are available. Of course for someone who is looking for the most basic bargain, they may decide to go without them.

With or without these extra features, a person still receives the independent rear suspension, the six standard airbags included with many other safety features, and an efficient TDI powerplant. It is something that anyone who likes quick acceleration, stable driving and nice maneuvering would go for.
