VOLKSWAGEN FUEL ACTIVATOR — a device which is installed on a fuel hose of any Volkswagen car and significantly reduces fuel consumption Volkswagen by 20% and improves the engine performance. Therefore, with the same amount of fuel on your Volkswagen, you will drive MORE KILOMETERS!

Activators on VOLKSWAGEN fully pay off in 3-4 months!

The service life of Activators for VOLKSWAGEN is 10-15 years.

Activators are installed on all models of Volkswagen and are used in all types of fuel — GAS, PETROL, DIESEL FUEL.

The Activators are easy to install, they are installed on the Volkswagen fuel supply hose in a few minutes:

1. Volkswagen fuel consumption is reduced by 20%.
2. A slight increase in the power of the Volkswagen engine.
3. Extends the service life of the Volkswagen engine.
4. The content of carbon monoxide and other pollutants in Volkswagen exhaust gases is reduced by 30-40%.
5. Stable and dynamic operation of the Volkswagen engine.
6. Reduces the formation of soot and carbon deposits on Volkswagen pistons, cylinders, spark plugs, fuel injectors, catalyst and exhaust pipes.
7. Extends the service life of the Volkswagen catalyst, lambda probe, spark plugs and Volkswagen fuel injectors.

Volkswagen ACTIVATOR reduces fuel consumption by 20%.

At the same time, the engine operation of Volkswagen is significantly improved.

Examples of installation on different models of Volkswagen.

ANY FUEL (petrol, diesel, gas), by going through 10 magnetic fields of THESE ACTIVATORS, for a short time changes its structure and properties, and it BURNS more fully and REGULARLY.
Due to this, the Volkswagen engine begins to work much BETTER.

Usually, it is already seen after 10-20 km of run of the car Volkswagen which has an installed Activator.

Imagine, how your Volkswagen engine works with VERY GOOD FUEL …
That is, we have quite different (better) fuel.

   You agree that chopped firewood burns much better than whole logs … The same thing happens with automotive fuel in the cylinders of the Volkswagen engine.

Activators installed on Volkswagen reduce the density and viscosity of fuel:

1. This leads to the formation of smaller fuel particles, ensures good atomization and combustion in the cylinders of the Volkswagen engine.
2. The fuel ignites better and burns smoothly, ensuring soft and smokeless operation of the Volkswagen engine.
3. Reduces deposits on injectors and carbon deposits on candles and Volkswagen cylinders.
4. Reduces the load on the operation of Volkswagen fuel supply systems.
5. Increases reliability and increases the life of Volkswagen fuel equipment.

All this leads to improved conditions for fuel combustion Volkswagen cylinders.

    FUEL with Activators burns more completely in the Volkswagen engine, does not leave carbon deposits on pistons, cylinders and spark plugs.

     On Volkswagen cars, the injectors are not polluted, and there is no black smoke even at throttling at free running.

Knowing where the fuel hoses are located, Activators at Volkswagen are installed within 5 minutes (see «INSTALLATION»)

     ATTENTION! The main difference of THESE ACTIVATORS is that there are 20 magnets placed in them, which for a short time CHANGE THE STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF FUEL.    In other similar Aktivators which can be used on Volkswagen, there are only 2 powerful magnets which are not able to change anything in the fuel (see «ANALOGUES» ).

     When you don’t like the Aktivators, then with no doubt you can return them back within 37 days (read «RETURN»).

ACTIVATOR reduces the fuel consumption of any VOLKSWAGEN vehicle by 20%. Therefore, with the same amount of fuel on your Volkswagen, you will drive MORE KILOMETERS!

The operating life is at least 15 years
We produce and sell them starting from 2008

How to reduce fuel consumption on a Volkswagen car

   Many motorists compare the fuel consumption of their Volkswagen car with the data provided in catalogs. Often, in fact, there are noticeable exceedances compared to the specified data. Let’s figure out how to evaluate Volkswagen fuel consumption data provided in catalogs, determine the causes of increased fuel consumption on Volkswagen cars and learn how to operate a new car with minimal fuel consumption.

   Volkswagen fuel consumption data provided by the car manufacturer is based on the new European Test Cycle (NEFZ), which is legally approved as a mandatory method for estimating Volkswagen fuel consumption. These data are obtained in laboratory conditions, which do not always correspond to the actual operating conditions of the car.
In the NEFZ cycle, fuel consumption is estimated for three modes: urban, suburban and combined. According to these data, the nominal fuel consumption can be compared.

Volkswagen fuel consumption optimization methods

   To reduce fuel consumption on Volkswagen vehicles, the following rules must be followed:

Try to move evenly.
Slow down less.
Move along with the traffic flow.
Use a rolling motion (in neutral).
Use the inertia of the car.
Drive in higher gear if possible. The Volkswagen TDI and TSI engines are designed to move at low speeds as well.

Features of reducing Volkswagen fuel consumption in vehicles with a manual transmission:

If you are using a car with a manual transmission, switch to second gear after you start driving.
When switching to higher gears, you can skip one of the gears if the driving conditions allow it.
When moving in a stream, choose the highest possible gear.

Features of reducing fuel consumption on Volkswagen cars with automatic transmission:

Avoid Kickdown mode.
Briefly release the accelerator pedal before pressing it again — the automation will turn on the next higher gear.
Use forced idling mode to switch to lower gears. If you take your foot off the accelerator pedal, it will switch to a lower gear. At the same time, the fuel supply is interrupted, and Volkswagen’s fuel consumption is reduced. Examples of using a shift to lower gears in forced idling mode: take your foot off the accelerator pedal when driving downhill or approaching a traffic light with a red signal/
Roll forward. When driving in neutral, fuel consumption is also significantly reduced. This is especially effective in cases where the car can roll for a long distance. When driving downhill, it also makes sense to move coasting, but only if the slope is not too great.
Turn on additional energy consumers only if necessary. Electrical equipment, such as an air conditioning system, heated seats, rear windows or exterior mirrors, is also a fuel consumer. With reasonable use of the equipment, Volkswagen’s increased fuel consumption can be avoided.

   At low speeds, the climate control system, for example, can consume up to 2 liters/100 km. At the same time, the temperature can be lowered by ventilating the cabin before the trip, or if you drive for a while with the windows down

   Check the tire pressure. The contribution of rolling resistance to the total fuel consumption is up to 15%. If the tires are inflated to a pressure designed for full load, rolling resistance decreases, and with it fuel consumption decreases; the corresponding pressures are indicated on the fuel tank lid or in some models in the threshold area on the driver’s side rack. o When using tires with reduced rolling resistance, fuel consumption can be reduced by more than 3%. In addition, tires with reduced rolling resistance make less noise.

   Avoid traveling short distances. At the stage of warming up the cold engine after starting, fuel consumption is maximum (up to 30 liters / 100 km). At the same time, short-distance trips should be avoided, if possible, or at least combined with each other. Warming up the engine at idle in cold weather does not reduce fuel consumption, but rather increases it. In addition, it is prohibited by law.

   Use a low viscosity oil. The faster the engine parts are well lubricated, the faster the friction inside the engine will decrease and harmful emissions into the atmosphere will be reduced. This is especially important for cold starts and short-distance trips. When using low viscosity oils, fuel consumption can be reduced by more than 5% compared to conventional oils.

General rules for saving Volkswagen fuel consumption

Keep an eye on the oil level.
Observe the oil change intervals.
Use Volkswagen approved oils.
Reduce aerodynamic drag. Good aerodynamics are the key to reducing fuel consumption. The Volkswagen car body is designed in such a way that the area exposed to wind load is minimal. However, the use of roof add-ons such as bicycle mounts and roof racks reduces this advantage to zero. With an increase in aerodynamic drag by 33%, fuel consumption at a speed of 160 km/h increases by 2 liters /100 km. Remove the trunk from the roof, even if it is not in use for a short time.

   Do not carry unnecessary ballast with you. 100 kg of excess cargo increases fuel consumption by 0.3 liters/100 km. Regular inspection of the contents of the luggage compartment helps to reduce fuel consumption.

   These rules apply to Volkswagen models: Polo, Golf hatchback, Golf Sportsvan, Beetle, Jetta, Tiguan, Passat sedan, Passat Variant, Volkswagen CC, Golf Variant, Touran, Sharan

Low Volkswagen fuel consumption — with maximum precision

Volkswagen radically reduces fuel consumption

Volkswagen Polo BlueMotion fuel consumption: 3.3 liters per 100 km — for only 3.50 euros!
Volkswagen Golf BlueMotion fuel consumption: 3.8 liters per 100 km — the most economical Golf of all time!
Fuel consumption of Volkswagen Passat BlueMotion: 4.4 liters — 1591 km to the next refueling!

Wolfsburg, autumn 2009. BlueMotion is the most famous German automobile brand in the field of ecology. The first generation Polo BlueMotion, which debuted in 2006, showed the world’s best average fuel consumption for five—seater cars — 3.9 liters. At the same time, this Polo marked the beginning of a successful launch of products under the umbrella brand

«BlueMotionTechnologies». Currently, Volkswagen is already presenting three main models of this program as conceptual versions of BlueMotion: Polo, Golf and Passat. All 3 cars are equipped with the most innovative high-tech package, however, affordable for every car owner. It includes a TDI engine with a Common Rail injection system, a braking energy recycling system through recovery, a stop-start system and advanced aerodynamics elements.

Volkswagen’s average fuel consumption is 3.3 liters (Polo), 3.8 liters (Golf) and 4.4 liters (Passat). These three new cars are the most economical in their classes. In Germany, deliveries of the first Golf BlueMotion and Passat BlueMotion (77 kW / 105 hp) will begin this year. The launch of the Polo BlueMotion series (55 kW / 75 hp) will follow in early 2010. All three new models demonstrate how technically rational it is possible to combine the best, but at the same time affordable technologies of our time. Definitely, the Polo BlueMotion, Golf BlueMotion and Passat BlueMotion are cars that were ahead of their time in terms of environmental safety.

Volkswagen Polo fuel consumption: 100 km for 3.50 euros

Each of these BlueMotion models solves the problems related to fuel consumption, emissions and cost in its segment in a completely new way. For example, Polo BlueMotion is the second generation of the leading brand, the average consumption of Volkswagen diesel fuel is only 3.3 liters per 100 km (CO2 emission index 87 g/km!). Like its predecessor, the Polo BlueMotion has become the world’s most economical five-seater car. Its 45-liter fuel tank theoretically allows you to cover a distance of 1,363 kilometers. The way to work, a vacation trip or a long weekend pay off quite well. For example, after refueling in Hanover, you can drive without refueling to Venice (1148 km), spending only about 40 euros, since 100 km of the way, thanks to Polo BlueMotion, will cost only 3.50 euros. The following example of cost effectiveness: according to the German Federal Statistical Office, the average annual mileage of cars registered in Germany is 11,000 kilometers per year. For the owner of the Polo BlueMotion, this means that he can travel for a whole year, refueling the fuel tank only eight times and paying 385 euros for it.

Volkswagen Golf fuel consumption: 100 km for 4.00 euros

The same unencumbered fuel costs are expected by Golf BlueMotion owners. Due to the low consumption of diesel fuel, amounting to only 3.8 liters (99 g/km CO2), this car is recommended as the most economical in its class. The theoretical mileage with one refueling in this case will be 1,447 kilometers (with a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters). Fuel costs will amount to only 4.00 euros per 100 km of travel.

Volkswagen Passat fuel consumption: 100 km for 4.70 euros

The distance covered by the new Passat BlueMotion with one gas station claims to be an absolute record. With an average diesel fuel consumption of 4.4 liters (CO2 emissions — 114 g/km), thanks to a 70-liter fuel tank, he manages to walk 1,591 kilometers! Fuel costs will amount to 4.70 euros per 100 kilometers. Currently, no car of this size (length 4.77 m) in the world has such efficiency. And this applies not only to the sedan, but also to the Passat Variant BlueMotion model, whose sales in Germany have already begun.
TDI engine with Common Rail injection technology + stop-start system + recovery

The technologies combined in the BlueMotionTechnologies brand include a whole package of various high-tech components and style solutions. At the same time, the new TDI engines with Common Rail injection system, equipped with modified engine management system software with reduced idle speed, serve as the basis for extremely low fuel consumption and emissions of harmful substances. The Polo BlueMotion model has a three-cylinder TDI engine with a volume of 1.2 liters; The Golf and Passat models are equipped with 1.6 l four-cylinder TDI engines. The gearshift indicator built into the toolbar suggests the most energy efficient transmission at the moment.

The characteristics of BlueMotion also include the secondary use of energy during braking (recovery), a stop-start system (automatic engine shutdown at red traffic lights), tires with reduced rolling resistance, lightweight aerodynamic wheels (depending on the version), a low-lying sports chassis (Golf model), varieties of sports design and individual interior design.

Fuel consumption of Volkswagen Polo BlueMotion

Polo BlueMotion is the most economical five—seater car in the world
Volkswagen’s average fuel consumption of 3.3 liters makes refueling a rare event
Volkswagen’s record low fuel consumption thanks to the new 1.2-liter TDI engine

The new Polo BlueMotion will be released on the European market in early 2010. Based on the 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine installed in the Golf and Passat BlueMotion models, a new 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine has been developed for the Polo. Thanks to the new generation Common Rail injection technology, this TDI engine also runs extremely quietly. Already at a rotation speed of 2000 rpm, the maximum torque of the Polo engine is 180 Nm. The maximum power of 55 kW/75 hp is achieved at 4,200 rpm. The new engine and other specific measures made it possible to reduce fuel consumption by 0.9 liters (!), i.e. by 22 percent (from 4.2 to 3.3 liters) compared to the traditional 75 hp TDI engine for the Polo model. Similarly, CO2 emissions decreased from 109 to 87 g/km. At the same time, the Polo BlueMotion is a maneuverable compact car. In 13.6 seconds* this classic sprint model accelerates to a speed of 100 km/h; the maximum speed is 173 km/h* (* = the declared value at the time of publication of this material).

Polo BlueMotion has a package of various high-tech equipment. At the same time, the new TDI engine shows extremely low fuel consumption and harmful emissions. The gearshift indicator built into the toolbar suggests the most energy efficient transmission at the moment. The characteristics of BlueMotion also include the secondary use of energy during braking (recovery), a stop-start system (automatic engine shutdown at red traffic lights), tires with reduced rolling resistance and lightweight aerodynamic discs.

Stop-start system

The principle of operation of the stop-start system with intuitive control is especially interesting. So let’s imagine: a driver on a Polo BlueMotion (or on a Golf BlueMotion, or on a Passat BlueMotion) approaches a traffic light with a red signal, stops the car completely, switches (ideally) to idle and takes his foot off the clutch pedal. Thus, the engine stops instantly. The stop-start message appears on the multifunction display. As soon as the traffic light turns yellow, the driver squeezes out the clutch, the engine starts, the «stop-start» message goes out — it remains only to turn on the working gear and continue driving.

Secondary use of energy during braking (recovery)

Recuperation helps to optimally use the energy of movement. When driving by inertia and in the braking phase — that is, whenever the driver takes his foot off the gas pedal or purposefully slows down — the Polo BlueMotion (or Golf BlueMotion, or Passat BlueMotion) increases the voltage of the generator, which leads to increased recharging of the battery.

Due to the control of the generator, depending on the efficiency of the engine and the constant optimal level of charging of the battery, it is possible to reduce the voltage of the generator at the right moment — for example, when accelerating or maintaining the desired speed steadily. It is even possible to turn off the generator completely. This unloads the engine and reduces Volkswagen’s fuel consumption. In order to use recuperation, special software for the energy management system and modified software for the engine control unit are required.

The appearance of the Polo

Along with BlueMotionTechnologies functions such as the stop-start system and recovery, the Polo BlueMotion model weighing only 1080 kg is distinguished by newly designed body elements made taking into account the requirements of aerodynamics. These elements include: an almost closed upper grille, an updated front spoiler, optimized thresholds, a newly designed rear bumper and rear spoiler, aerodynamic bottom lining, as well as 15-inch alloy wheels and tires with reduced rolling resistance polished in a wind tunnel. Compared to the Polo BlueMotion of the first generation, the new model, taking into account all the improvements, has a pronounced sporty design.

Polo Salon

Other key elements of the serial configuration of the new Polo BlueMotion include the individual character of the interior trim in the «Power On» style, a speed control system, leather trim of the steering wheel and gear lever, a central armrest, tire pressure indicator, fog lights, as well as exterior mirrors and door handles painted to match the main color of the car.

Golf BlueMotion

The most economical Golf of all time:
Outstanding performance despite 3.8 L fuel consumption
The TDI engine of the Golf BlueMotion model develops a torque of 250 Nm already at 2000 rpm.
With a CO2 emission level of 99 g/km, this Golf can serve as a model of environmental safety
The new Golf BlueMotion, as the best-in-class car, with an average fuel consumption of 3.8 liters does not exceed the iconic limit of 4.0 liters (which is similar to the CO2 emissions level of 99 g/km). Deliveries of the first Golf BlueMotion in Germany will begin as early as the end of November; key European markets will be covered almost simultaneously. The most economical Golf of all time is powered by a new 1.6 L quiet turbodiesel with Common Rail technology.

The four-cylinder four-valve TDI engine with a capacity of 77 kW / 105 hp confidently develops a maximum torque of 250 Nm already at 2000 rpm. With such characteristics, it accelerates the Golf BlueMotion to 100 km/h in just 11.3 seconds. The maximum speed is 190 km/h.

Along with BlueMotion technologies (such as the stop-start system and recovery), individual style solutions have been used in the development of the Golf, the purpose of which is to combine environmental friendliness and dynamics.

The appearance of the Golf

The exterior of the new Golf BlueMotion differs from the original model in the following additional equipment: a modified protective grille with additional chrome trim plates, bumpers and enlarged thresholds of a sporty design in the style of R-Line, 15-inch alloy wheels and tires with reduced rolling resistance (195/65), tinted taillights, rear spoiler in the GTI design and the inscription BlueMotion on the radiator grille and trunk lid. Like the other two new BlueMotion models, the Golf model can be purchased in the «Glacier Blue metallic» color.

The interior of the Golf BlueMotion has changed the upholstery of the seats (the upholstery of the new Scout design with blue elements has appeared); a multifunctional indicator (MFA) with an option to prompt the moment for gear shifting, chrome inserts on the mirror adjustment unit, power window buttons and a rotary light switch are installed from the equipment. Of the standard equipment elements, air conditioning remained on board the Golf to create comfort, despite the desire to minimize energy consumption. The standard equipment also includes a rollback system (lifting and descent assistant).

Golf Engine

The four-cylinder four-valve engine with Common Rail injection system has good noise characteristics, high dynamics, extremely low Volkswagen fuel consumption and harmful emissions. From a technical point of view, the 1,598 cm3 TDI engine is the highest standard on the market in its class. The Common Rail system performs direct injection of diesel fuel into the combustion chamber at a pressure of 1600 bar. Special piezoactuators perform multipoint injection, precisely dosing the amount of fuel supplied.

A significant reduction in friction between engine parts is achieved through the optimal arrangement of the crankshaft, valve actuator and oil pump actuator. The quadratic ratio of the cylinder diameter to the stroke of the piston ensures minimal friction losses in the cylinders. In addition, losses were reduced during the circulation of oil and coolant, as well as in the intake and boost air ducts. As a result, the TDI engine was created with the lowest level of fuel consumption and harmful emissions, which at the same time did not lose any dynamics and comfort.

Passat BlueMotion

Environmental friendliness in a large format:
The Passat BlueMotion is the most economical among large cars
The 4.8 m long car consumes only 4.4 liters of diesel fuel
The extremely economical Passat is sold in two versions: sedan and Variant
Never before has there been a Passat car that consumes only 4.4 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers and thus reduces CO2 emissions to 114 g/km. In Germany, it will appear in early November in two body versions — sedan and Variant.

The 77 kW/105 hp TDI engine with Common Rail injection system is available in the range of engines for Passat BlueMotion and Golf BlueMotion. The potential of this engine and the aerodynamic characteristics of the Passat model demonstrate its dynamic performance. With a top speed of 193 km/h and acceleration to 100 km in 12.5 seconds, the big Passat is in no way inferior to the Golf model.

Regarding the characteristics of fuel consumption and emissions of harmful substances, Volkswagen has also introduced technologies such as recovery, stop-start system and various aerodynamic improvements into the Passat BlueMotion model. By analogy with the new Polo and Golf BlueMotion, an individual style of outdoor and indoor equipment has been developed.

The appearance of the Passat

The new BlueMotion models embody a change in trend: environmental friendliness and sportiness no longer exclude each other. This is reflected in the appearance of the new Passat BlueMotion. The rear and front bumpers, painted in the color of the car, are based on the R-Line sports program. The Variant’s luggage compartment lid is equipped with a rear spoiler to optimize airflow resistance. The «Glacier Blue Metallic» paintwork is specially designed for super-economical cars. The radiator grille is painted in the color of the car (cars with other paint options have a matte black radiator grille with chrome overlays). The white front turn indicators emphasize the sporty spirit of the Passat BlueMotion model. The same applies to the increased thresholds from the R-Line program and chrome-plated protective side moldings. The front decorative linings are also painted in the color of the car. The Passat BlueMotion is equipped with 16-inch alloy two-tone wheels (Monza style).
Passat Salon

The interior of the Passat is impeccably equipped: it has electric front windows, air conditioning, and an electronically controlled handbrake. In the BlueMotion version, which is based on the Trendline package, the interior includes equipment such as a three-spoke steering wheel and a leather-trimmed gearshift lever, as well as a multi-function indicator, complemented by an option to prompt the moment to shift gears.
Passat Engine

The 1,598 cm3 four-cylinder four-valve engine with a Common-Rail direct injection system has good noise characteristics, high dynamics, extremely low Volkswagen fuel consumption and harmful emissions. Diesel fuel is injected directly into the combustion chamber at a pressure of 1600 bar. Special piezoactuators perform multipoint injection, precisely dosing the amount of fuel supplied. As in the Golf BlueMotion, the 1.6—liter TDI engine demonstrates, on the one hand, high dynamic qualities and comfort, on the other, Volkswagen’s fuel economy and low emissions.
Umbrella brand BlueMotionTechnologies

Systemic environmental friendliness:
BlueMotionTechnologies as an umbrella brand
BlueMotionTechnologies is a complex of innovative systems
BlueMotionTechnologies form one of the most environmentally friendly modeling programs in the world
All three economical models from Volkswagen are combined under the brand «BlueMotion». There’s more to it than just the name of the model. In Europe, the BlueMotion brand has become one of the most recognizable synonyms of environmental friendliness. The founder of this success story was the 2006 Polo BlueMotion, which was the first of the five-door cars to consume less than 4.0 liters of fuel. Since then, a whole BlueMotion program has emerged. Today, the Volkswagen group has combined all BlueMotion models and technologies under the umbrella brand «BlueMotionTechnologies».

The BlueMotionTechnologies brand includes all the basic technologies and innovations that significantly reduce Volkswagen’s fuel consumption and emissions of harmful substances. At the same time, the basic technologies are the foundation of BlueMotion. Currently, such technologies include TDI (diesel engines with direct fuel injection and turbocharging) and TSI (gasoline engines with direct fuel injection and turbocharging) engines, as well as an extremely efficient dual clutch transmission (DSG). They are complemented by technological innovations. These include improvements to powertrains such as EcoFuel (natural gas-powered engines), BiFuel (liquefied gas-powered engines), MultiFuel (ethanol-powered engines), hybrid systems and electric drives, as well as exhaust gas recirculation and NOx nitrogen oxide neutralization, recovery and stop-stop systemstart.»

Basic technologies and innovations are penetrating an increasing range of product lines. These car products are divided into four concept brands «BlueMotion», «BlueMotionTechnology», «BlueTDI» and «TSI EcoFuel».

BlueMotion This concept brand includes the most economical models of the brand and the corresponding class. At the present stage, these are the Polo, Golf and Passat BlueMotion models. These are cars of a special concept and configuration equipped with TDI engines, setting standards in their class in the field of efficiency and environmental friendliness and having BlueMotion logos on the radiator grille and on the rear of the car.

BlueMotionTechnology

Cars with the BlueMotionTechnology logo (27 model variants will be available in Germany by the beginning of November) can be assembled on an individual order. The power unit is represented by particularly economical versions of the TDI and TSI engines. BlueMotionTechnology should be selected as a technical package when buying a new car.
The current versions for BlueMotionTechnology are the following models with TDI engines: Polo (1.6 TDI 66 kW / 90 hp), Golf, Golf Variant, Golf Plus, Passat and Passat Variant (in all cases 1.6 TDI 77 kW / 105 hp), Touran and Caddy (in both cases 1.9 TDI 77 kW 105 hp), Sharan (2.0 TDI 103 kW / 140 hp), as well as Touareg (3.0 TDI 165 kW / 225 hp). In addition, in Germany it is already possible to order Tiguan, Passat, Passat Variant and Passat CC in the 2.0 TDI 103 kW / 140 hp version the presence of the BlueMotionTechnology package.

With the TSI engine (gasoline engine with direct fuel injection and turbocharging), you can purchase the Passat and Passat Variant (1.4 TSI 90 kW / 122 hp) in the BlueMotionTechnology version. In November, the Eos and Scirocco (1.4 TSI 122 hp) will debut, as well as the Tiguan (1.4 TSI 110 kW / 150 hp). The next technology achievement among gasoline-powered cars promises to be the Golf and Golf Plus with the new 1.2 liter TSI engine (77 kW / 105 hp).

The BlueMotionTechnology technical package for each model will reduce Volkswagen’s fuel consumption by almost 1.0 liters per 100 kilometers. Numerous BlueMotionTechnology series production models are equipped with stop-start and recovery systems as standard. All versions of TDI engines up to 105 hp are equipped with a five-speed manual transmission; a six-speed gearbox is installed for the 140 hp TDI engine. The Touareg 3.0 TDI is equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission. At the customer’s request, a seven-speed dual clutch transmission (DSG) can be installed on the Golf TDI, Golf Plus TDI and Touran 1.4 TSI with the BlueMotionTechnology package. Commercially, TSI engines are equipped with six-speed manual transmissions. BlueMotionTechnology models and their average fuel consumption and emissions:

TSI EcoFuel

The fourth concept brand appeared in 2009 under the name TSI EcoFuel. It embodies a revolution in the use of cars powered by natural gas. Cars powered by natural gas have always had very low emissions of harmful substances, but at the same time their dynamics suffered. The solution is the new Touran TSI EcoFuel, CrossTouran TSI EcoFuel, and Passat and Passat Variant TSI EcoFuel models — equipped with a 1.4 TSI engine with a capacity of 110 kW / 150 hp — thanks to dual supercharging (turbocharging plus compressor) and direct fuel injection. All vehicles are designed to run on two types of fuel; each is equipped with three fuel tanks with natural gas and one gas tank. The serial six-speed gearbox can optionally be replaced with a seven-speed dual clutch gearbox (DSG). TSI EcoFuel versions:
Touran 1.4 TSI EcoFuel: 4.7 kg/100 km; 129 g/km CO2

Touran 1.4 TSI EcoFuel DSG: 4.6 kg/100 km; 126 g/km CO2

CrossTouran 1.4 TSI EcoFuel: 4.9 kg/100 km; 133 g/km CO2

CrossTouran 1.4 TSI EcoFuel DSG: 4.8 kg/100 km; 130 g/km CO2

Passat 1.4 TSI EcoFuel: 4.5 kg/100 km; 123 g/km CO2

Passat 1.4 TSI EcoFuel DSG: 4.4 kg/100 km; 119 g/km CO2

Passat Variant 1.4 TSI EcoFuel: 4.6 kg/100 km; 124 g/km CO2

Passat Variant 1.4 TSI EcoFuel DSG: 4.4 kg/100 km; 121 g/km CO2

Strategy for the development of new fuels and new engines 2.0

Modernization for the sake of the future:
Technology on the way to tomorrow
The formation of a strategy for the transition to the age of electric vehicles
TDI and TSI engines will prevail for decades to come
The automotive world is on the threshold of a new era: the reduction of oil reserves, the growth of the economies of developing countries, and tightening environmental requirements are putting automakers in the face of serious challenges of the time. It has been proven that the generation that is being born today will become an adult by the time the oil age ends. However, there are already questions about this world order: irresponsible predictions create the illusion that future technologies — especially electric vehicles — are ready to enter the mass market today. In fact, this is not the case. The path to a car without harmful emissions is still quite far. Therefore, Volkswagen Group follows its long-term strategy of developing new fuels and new engines.

According to the Chairman of the Board of Volkswagen AG, Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, «the future of individual mobility undoubtedly belongs to the electric car. We at Volkswagen recognize our responsibility for this future. And we are purposefully bringing it closer. However, everyone should clearly realize that the path to an electric car is not a sprint, but a marathon. One electric motor is not enough for this yet. By 2020, the market share of clean electric vehicles on a global scale will not exceed 1.5%. 98.5 percent remain. As of 2008, 55 million were sold annually worldwide. cars that cannot be refueled from an electrical outlet yet. If the market revives after the crisis, we will be talking about 70 million cars. Therefore, it is still impossible to move into the future without high-tech gasoline and diesel engines TDI and TSI.»

Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg, President of the Volkswagen Group for Technical Development, emphasizes: «In the next two generations of cars, which is at least 15-20 years, internal combustion engines will definitely prevail. It is all the more important today to present a clear scenario for the future. Because car owners want to know which technologies will remain relevant tomorrow and which ones will be created the day after tomorrow.» In its strategy for the development of new fuels and new 2.0 L engines, Volkswagen has called such a scenario «Modernization for the future.» This is the path of technology development, along which the car is approaching the future kilometer by kilometer.

And Professor Dr. Martin Winterkorn takes the floor again: «An iconic control point on this path is a mass—produced electric car with the same output volume as today’s Polo model. However, in order to achieve decisive success, such an electric vehicle must be affordable to a wide range of buyers and suitable for everyday use without any restrictions. Only then, with mass sales, and if possible on all continents, will it be possible to talk about the beginning of the era of electric vehicles and a noticeable reduction in the environmental burden. However, this will happen only when we learn how to get electricity from restoration, that is, from renewable energy sources.» And this is just a small segment of the long journey described in the strategy for the development of new fuels and new 2.0 l engines.

Current status

At the present stage, Volkswagen AG’s strategy for developing new fuels and new engines suggests using existing fossil fuel reserves as efficiently as possible. Today, this is the only way to save resources and reduce the burden on the environment. Nowadays, engines powered by gasoline, diesel fuel and natural gas are becoming more compact, more economical, more environmentally friendly, while maintaining and even increasing their dynamics. Volkswagen AG produces the most fuel-efficient cars in the world today. Recent examples are the new Polo, Golf and Passat models of the BlueMotion series.
All mass-produced Volkswagen models use the most efficient and at the same time affordable drive systems. These include a dual-clutch transmission (DSG) and the most modern automatic transmission of our time. There is a constant exchange of technologies between the exclusive and mass models of the concern. For example, the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 in 2005 was the first time in the world that a seven-speed dual clutch gearbox was commercially installed. It doesn’t matter if it’s a sports car or a car from a mass-produced series, when you look at the current state of affairs in the field of drive systems, it becomes clear: high technologies such as TDI, TSI and DSG will prevail even in 2025.

There is also no doubt that different technologies will be used simultaneously. Cars will increasingly adapt to the individual needs of the owner. In 2010, the concern will present its first two hybrid cars. The Porsche Cayenne and Volkswagen Touareg models became the first hybrids among large cars. This size was chosen deliberately: firstly, only with such sizes it is possible to compensate for the high cost of a hybrid drive with reduced fuel consumption (for Cayenne and Touareg — by 25%). Secondly, only buyers of such large cars are willing to pay a high price for it. Dr. Hackenberg tells us: «We are conducting research and development on all relevant technologies. However, they are transferred to production only when it makes sense. Therefore, Volkswagen has highly efficient gasoline and diesel engines, as well as gas-powered engines. With their help, the new Polo, Golf, Passat BlueMotion and Passat TSI EcoFuel are more economical than any comparable hybrid car.»

At the same time, Volkswagen will bring the second generation of the experimental Golf TwinDrive Plug—In Hybrid to the streets of Berlin in 2010. The 130 kW Golf TwinDrive is equipped with an energy management system implemented in this form for the first time. Its batteries can be charged not only from an outlet, as in other hybrid cars. Instead of the possible 3 kilometers of driving in zero exhaust mode today, the Golf TwinDrive is able to travel up to 50 km on an electric drive. If the lithium-ion batteries run out, the ultra-economical TDI engine takes over. The driver can program the energy management system in such a way that when traveling from Hamburg to Berlin, urban sections of the road are traversed by electric drive. «The serial application of this technology in the modern generation of Golf is still impossible due to the high cost of batteries,» said Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg about the experimental Golf TwinDrive.

In the near future, in 2011 Volkswagen will launch the first model of the New Small Family (Up!) concept — a city car class below the Polo. A completely new program of aggregates is debuting in this series. The goal of the program is to reduce CO2 emissions to 80 g/km. Thanks to the modular transverse design, the engines of this family will be compatible with models up to the Golf class.

This year, at the IAA International Motor Show in Frankfurt, Volkswagen unveiled its new urban electric car E-Up! The zero-exhaust car has New Small Family modules at the heart of its design, but it is even more compact (length 3.2 m). A small-scale production of a car similar in design to the New Small Family is planned for 2013. To the question «Why small-scale?» We answer right away: today the price of batteries used in E-Up! varies from 8 to 12 thousand euros.

Also in 2013, Volkswagen will be able to launch a small series of «one-liter» cars with a carbon fiber body. The machine has a hybrid drive consisting of a two-cylinder TDI and an electric motor.

Another important step towards the future is the extraction of fuel from renewable raw materials. SunFuel fuels based on biomass and cellulose ethanol belong to the second generation of biofuels. This fuel is not a competitor to the food chain. Since SunFuel fuel is produced from renewable raw materials, as does Volkswagen’s partner Shell, its combustion releases exactly as much CO2 as it was previously taken from the atmosphere by the plants that make up this raw material.

SunFuel is simultaneously the «igniter» for the next stage of the strategy for the development of new fuels and new engines: the use of completely new internal combustion engines that will run on renewable fuels without major infrastructure changes. When using the homogenization effect, high-purity SunFuel fuel is obtained. Such fuel makes it possible to improve the method of burning diesel fuel in the direction of the combined combustion process (CCS). Thus, synthetic fuel paves the way for a new generation of engines. The CCS combustion method combines low diesel fuel consumption and the relative purity of the gasoline engine exhaust.

The distant future

Volkswagen’s innovative potential for creating new technologies can be assessed using the example of a fuel cell. Volkswagen’s research has made it possible to develop a one-of-a-kind high-temperature hydrogen fuel cell. The use of hydrogen as an energy source for an electric motor makes sense only when the primary energy for hydrogen production is obtained by reduction. Although Volkswagen has tested the entire fleet of experimental carriers in Europe, China and the United States, the planned date for the transition to fuel cells — 2020 — remains in doubt. Too many problems of hydrogen production and transportation have not yet been solved.
It is very likely that the breakthrough of 2020 will be carried out by another type of vehicle: an electric car. This will be the final strategy for the development of new fuels and new engines. However, there are still many obstacles to overcome before 2020 in order for the share of electric vehicles to grow beyond the 1.5 percent predicted so far.

How to reduce fuel consumption in a car

Many motorists compare the fuel consumption of their Volkswagen car with the data provided in catalogs. Often, in fact, there are noticeable exceedances in comparison with the indicated data. Let’s figure out how to evaluate the fuel consumption data provided in catalogs, determine the causes of increased fuel consumption in Volkswagen vehicles, and learn how to operate a new car with minimal fuel consumption.

The fuel consumption data provided by the car manufacturer is based on the new European Test Cycle (NEFZ), which has been approved by law as a mandatory fuel consumption assessment method. These data are obtained in laboratory conditions, which do not always correspond to the actual operating conditions of the car.

In the NEFZ cycle, fuel consumption is estimated for three modes: urban, rural and combined. According to these data, the nominal fuel consumption can be compared.

Fuel consumption optimization methods
To reduce fuel consumption on Volkswagen vehicles, the following rules must be followed:

Try to move evenly.
Slow down less.
Move along with the traffic flow.
Use a rolling motion (in neutral).
Use the inertia of the car.
Drive in a higher gear if possible. Volkswagen’s TDI and TSI engines are designed to drive at low revs as well.
Features of reducing fuel consumption in vehicles with manual transmission:
When using a car with a manual transmission, switch to second gear after the start of driving.
When shifting to higher gears, you can skip one of the gears if the driving conditions allow it.
When moving in a stream, choose as high a gear as possible.
Features of reducing fuel consumption in vehicles with automatic transmission:
Avoid the Kickdown mode.
Release the accelerator pedal briefly before pressing it again, and the automatic will switch to the next higher gear.
Use forced idling mode to switch to lower gears. If you take your foot off the accelerator pedal, the automatic transmission will switch to a lower gear. In this case, the fuel supply is interrupted and fuel consumption is reduced. Examples of using the shift to lower gears in forced idling mode: take your foot off the accelerator pedal when driving downhill or approaching a traffic light with a red signal/
Roll over. When driving in neutral, fuel consumption is also significantly reduced. This is especially effective in cases where the car can roll for a long distance. When driving downhill, it also makes sense to roll, but only if the slope is not too high.
Turn on additional energy consumers only if necessary. Electrical equipment, such as an air conditioning system, heated seats, rear windows, or exterior mirrors, is also a fuel consumer. With reasonable use of the equipment, increased fuel consumption can be avoided.
At low speeds, the climate control unit, for example, can consume up to 2 liters/100 km. At the same time, the temperature can be lowered by ventilating the cabin before driving, or if you drive with the windows down for a while.
Check the tire pressure. The contribution of rolling resistance to total fuel consumption is up to 15%. If the tires are inflated to full load pressure, rolling resistance decreases and fuel consumption decreases with it; the corresponding pressures are indicated on the fuel tank cap or in some models in the threshold area on the driver’s side stand. o When using tires with reduced rolling resistance, fuel consumption can be reduced by more than 3%. In addition, tires with reduced rolling resistance make less noise.
Avoid traveling short distances.At the stage of warming up a cold engine after starting, fuel consumption is maximum (up to 30 liters/100 km). At the same time, short-distance trips should be avoided as much as possible, or at least combined with each other. Warming up the engine at idle in cold weather does not reduce fuel consumption, but rather increases it. In addition, it is prohibited by law.
Use a low-viscosity oil. The sooner the engine parts are well lubricated, the faster the friction inside the engine will decrease and harmful emissions into the atmosphere will be reduced. This is especially important when cold starting and traveling short distances. When using low viscosity oils, fuel consumption can be reduced by more than 5% compared to conventional oils.
General rules for saving fuel consumption
Keep an eye on the oil level.
Observe the oil change intervals.
Use oils approved by Volkswagen.
Reduce aerodynamic drag. Good aerodynamics are the key to reducing fuel consumption. The Volkswagen car body is designed in such a way that the area exposed to wind load is minimal. However, the use of roof add-ons such as bicycle mounts and roof racks reduces this advantage to zero. With a 33% increase in aerodynamic drag, fuel consumption at 160 km/h increases by 2 liters/100 km. Remove the trunk from the roof, even if it is not in use for a short time.
Do not carry unnecessary ballast with you. 100 kg of excess cargo increases fuel consumption by 0.3 liters/100 km. Regular inspection of the luggage compartment contents helps to reduce fuel consumption.
These rules apply to Volkswagen models: Polo, Golf hatchback, Golf Sportsvan, Beetle, Jetta, Tiguan, Passat Sedan, Passat Variant, Volkswagen CC, Golf Variant, Touran, Sharan.
