2012 Volkswagen Jetta GLI Review
Volkswagen ReviewsView All Reviews
Volkswagen has Adolf Hitler to thank for its start. In 1933 Hitler asked Ferdinand Porsche (yes, that Porsche) to discuss the idea of an affordable car that could carry five people. Prototypes appeared shortly and the KdF-Wagen was released in 1938. The KdF-Wagen would later become known as the Beetle and go on to sell in the millions.

2012 Volkswagen Passat SEL V6 Review
Simplistic in base trim, when fully-loaded, VW’s new Passat takes the spacious new German family car into the realm of the luxury sedan.
2011 Volkswagen Tiguan Review
Set for a refresh next year, the Tiguan doesn’t need a facelift as much as it needs a little extra room and a more affordable price tag.
2011 Volkswagen Touareg Review
Improved in so many ways, perhaps the biggest change to the Touareg is the price, meaning there’s now very little gap between this Volkswagen and its Porsche sibling.
2011 Volkswagen Jetta TDI Review
All new for 2011, the Jetta is more functional but less inspiring. The TDI trim is, however, a small sign that Volkswagen hasn’t forgotten about its past or a core group of loyal buyers.
2011 Volkswagen Jetta Review
The 2011 Jetta is the first model from Volkswagen designed specifically for the U.S. market. Larger and cheaper than in the past it would seem to have solved the car’s two biggest issues. There are, however, more than just a few down sides.
2011 Volkswagen Golf Review
The sixth generation VW Golf continues to lead the compact pack with a premium feel and drive quality, but with serious competitors on the horizon will the subtle changes for the new car be enough?
2010 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen Review
No just a competitor to cars like the Chevy HHR, Toyota Matrix or Hyundai Elantra Touring, the Jetta SportWagen is a solid alternative to compact crossovers.
2010 Volkswagen Jetta TDI Cup Street Edition Review
The road-going version of Volkswagen’s TDI Cup cars, the Jetta TDI Cup Street Edition delivers as promised with excellent fuel economy and incredible handling. The biggest problem is that the diesel engine isn’t all that fun and you’d have to be a serious VW nut to pay this much for a Jetta.
2010 Volkswagen Golf TDI: First Drive
Finally, the car-buying public is giving diesels another look. With one of the most popular models the world has ever seen back on US roads, does the 2010 Golf TDI have what it takes to make consumers love diesel?
2010 Volkswagen GTI: First Drive
The sixth generation of the original hot hatch trades raw emotion for a civilized ride. But don’t worry; thanks to some new innovations it can carve a corner better than ever.
2009 Volkswagen CC Sport Review
Not only does it look great and drive like a true sports sedan, but even the base model Volkswagen CC has pretty much everything you want.
2009 Volkswagen Eos
Volkswagen’s hard-top Eos convertible delivers fun and quality German engineering, putting it on par with cars like the BMW 128i Convertible.
2009 Volkswagen Tiguan
Is Volkswagen’s entry-level crossover too late and too expensive to compete with the competition from Toyota and Honda, or will the SUV’s build-quality help it carve out a spot in this ultra-competitive segment?
2009 Volkswagen Jetta TDI
After a two year absence Volkswagen brings back the diesel Jetta, but in those two years hybrids have made tremendous inroads into the hearts and minds of Americans. Can the TDI reclaim its former glory? Or does it need more to succeed?
2009 Volkswagen Routan SEL
Is there any reason to purchase a VW Routan over its Chrysler Town & Country counterpart? Is there any reason not to?
2009 Volkswagen CC
Every now and then the performance guys at VW win out over the sensible family-car guys. This is one of those times.
2009 VW City Golf
The City Golf is the cheapest VW for sale in Canada… for a reason.
