One of the most powerful and fastest-accelerating Volkswagens ever produced is the Golf R model, which debuted back in 2009 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The folks from HRE Wheels have made a beautiful interpretation of this model, equipping it with their set of 19"x8.5" HRE P44SC in Satin Silver.
The Golf R was originally developed by Volkswagen Individual and includes a 2.0-litre TSI four-cylinder engine developing 270 PS (199 kW) and 350Nm (258 lb-ft).
The Golf R is the cream of the crop from and features

Usually, when you need some extra character on the road, you turn to aftermarket designers like A. Kahn or tuning houses that resemble Gemballa or Prior. They will be more than happy to put a bumper or two on your gone-souless Mercedes or Porsche. But then, you can do this with your car...provided that you are not ashamed to drive around with “SWAT” written on your side.
Here SWAT actually stands for “Special Wagons And Tuning” which is the parent company of KBR Motorsport and they are respo

I have just stumbled on this video/thing on YouTube. It's from the Volkswagen channel and it's supposed to be a teaser. Yes, the Beetle is newish but the focus is not on it per se. In August, Discovery Channel are going to broadcast their annual “Shark Week” and Volkswagen will somehow be involved in it.

Hartmann Vansports Volkswagen T5 Prime is powerful and stylish, and although it is based on a van, it looks better, sportier and more luxurious.
Hartman has added more power and dynamic to the Volkswagen by upgrading the engine.

When we heard that Schmidt Revolution are bringing out yet another Golf, we got excited. It was only after when we realized that the “programme” comprised solely of a set of wheels and a fancy audio system. The upside of the story is that, since the programme is just that, all Golfs are eligible to it. We were pleased to find out that Schmidt's weapon of choice was a Volkswagen Golf Mk 6 Convertible GTI.
That means 210 hp coming from a 2.0-liter TSI engine which in turn uses a PDK transmission to channel that fo

2013 Volkswagen Polo BlueGT has the potential to set new benchmarks. It combines the aspects of “dynamics” and “fuel efficiency” and hence creates unheard levels of fuel efficiency.
The most important highlight in the new Polo is that it benefits from its TSI engine with active cylinder management (ACT). What it do

Back in the 50s hippies, surfers and generally happy-go-lucky people had the Volkswagen Caravelle (Transporter T2) to identify with. It was so big (as a name) that it became a symbol of simple life, peace and love. Jump forward 70 years later and we find ourselves at the other end of the spectrum. It's the Volkswagen Caravelle Business (Transporter T5) – the executives strike back.
It's a conference room on wheels basically. You get your Wi-Fi internet connectivity and Bluetooth, 5+1 Nappa le

Volkswagen are having a really mouth-watering lineup for the 2012 Auto Mobil International in Leipzig. We see some very recent faces such as the Volkswagen CC R-Line, the Beetle Fender and the Polo. The Volkswagen Scirocco however, takes the prize as probably the most exciting one out there. It's a GTS version which is said to carry the essence of the 70s and 80s back when the Scirocco models was first born.
It's a world premiere for this GTS version – a black and red stripe splitting the car
