VW Passat BlueMotion: Will be shown in Geneva

VW Passat BlueMotion
VW will present the VW Passat BlueMotion in Geneva. Good news for all diesel lovers!
Volkswagen will unveil its new Passat BlueMotion at the Geneva Motor Show in March, with sales of the clean-diesel to start in the second half of this year. BlueMotion is the label VW gives to the most fuel-efficient vehicle it offers in a model segment. Its Polo BlueMotion burns just 3.9L of fuel per 100km and emits only 103g of CO2/km, one gram less than Toyota’s hybrid Prius. The Passat version will come with a 1.9L TDI motor developing 105hp that’s said to achieve best-in-class mileage rates.

VW will eventually add BlueMotion versions to all of its volume-selling car lines including the Golf and Touran models. The Passat and Polo BlueMotion vehicles will initially be sold in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, with sales for the rest of Europe expected to start early next year.
