2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI in Springfield MO

Good news folks! Gas prices are predicted to stay a bit more stable this year, staying well-below the $4 mark of previous years. Or so they say. Even if gas prices aren’t expected to shoot so far up that you’ll start wondering what luxuries you can live without, it never hurts to save even more money at the pump with the 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI in Springfield MO.

In the past diesel cars were known for being annoyingly loud and dirty little grease burners. Guess what? New technology makes this a tale best left in the past. Clean Diesel technology found in the 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI has eliminated the loud noise issue and the black clouds of smoke are long gone thanks to ultra-low sulfur diesel used today.

Having lost all the negative aspects attributed with diesel, the Golf TDI leaves you with excellent fuel efficiency with 30 city/45 highway MPG rating. Naysayers may point out that diesel fuel costs more at the pump, but when you do the math it ends up being only a few dollars more for a full tank of gas. When you consider you get as many as 119 more miles per tank over the 4-door gas trim style, then $5 a fill-up seems like mere pocket change. You will, after all, be filling up less often.

You also might be interested to know the 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI also has a bit more power than the base model, with a maximum torque of 236 lb-ft rather than 200 lb-ft. We’re not saying you need it for anything, but more power never hurts.

Diesel fuel has advanced leaps and bounds over the last few years, and we’re excited about what it can mean for our pocketbooks. Cleaner diesel means we can get farther on one tank of gas without feeling guilty about the environment or creating awful noise pollution.

If you’re looking to get a diesel vehicle, the 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI Springfield MO should be a real contender. Schedule a test drive today or stop by Volkswagen Springfield.
