How far can you go in your Volkswagen?
Volkswagen dealer Inchcape Volkswagen has gathered the following research to find out which type of Volkswagen will get you furthest from A to B when on the road. It’s useful to consult when thinking about which vehicle is right for your lifestyle. If you’re just driving a bit in the city every once in a while it might not be so important. But a regular commute to work to each day, plenty of chores, and other things that require some fairly large distances mean you might want to reconsider the kind of vehicle you buy. One noticeable point is Volkswagen clearly came out ahead. Take that for what you will.
For each of the rankings, the type of Volkswagen with the highest miles per gallon (mpg was recorded — unless more than one had the same figure — and the list is in order of most to least mpg:
