To help reduce the impact on our environment, not only
have we come up with a solution, we’ve designed many.
BlueMotion Technologies is our contribution to sustainable motoring. This means we offer optimum
solutions for every demand, which makes driving more fuel effi cient. Lower fuel consumption and lower
emission diesel engines allied with BlueMotion Technologies are friendlier to the environment and your
wallet, without having to give up everyday practicality and comfort.
The Golf has been setting benchmarks for over 30 years and with the Golf BlueMotion we’ve set another
one; the most efficient and eco-sensitive Golf we’ve ever built. Our engineers have strived to produce a
cleaner, more efficient Golf that still offers great performance and handling. The result of their work is an
impressive range of refinements and innovations that save fuel and cut CO 2 emissions. Its dynamic bodykit
reduces the vehicle’s air resistance and, combined engineering refi nements, such as longer gear ratios
to reduce revs, low rolling resistance tyres and lowered sports suspension, all improve fuel consumption
and help produce exceptional economy. We’ve also designed a range of other energy-saving technologies
to work in synergy with our advanced engines and gearboxes. BlueMotion Technologies such as a
multifunction computer (Highline) including visual gear change recommendation for optimum fuel
consumption, battery regeneration (recuperation – energy recovery during braking) and a Start/Stop
function that can cleverly switch the engine off when your vehicle is stationary and in neutral and start
it again as you depress the clutch, all combine to aid increased effi ciency. A combination of all these
refinements on the Golf BlueMotion delivers a package that offers outstanding economy up to 74.3 mpg
over the Combined fuel cycle*, and the high performance 1.6 TDI 105 PS engine with DPF (Diesel
Particulate Filter) ensures CO2 emissions are from an impressively low 99 g/km, making it exempt from
VED (Vehicle Excise Duty).
Much of this technology utilised in the Golf BlueMotion is also standard when you specify the
Match BlueMotion Technology or the latest addition to the range, the GT BlueMotion Technology.
Building over the already impressive specification for the Match and GT, the Start/Stop system,
multifunction computer (Highline) including visual gear change recommendation for optimum fuel
consumption and battery regeneration (recuperation – energy recovery during braking) all help reduce
emissions and improve fuel consumption.
Externally, Volkswagen’s ‘BlueMotion’ and ‘BlueMotion Technology’ badging identifi es the cleanest, most
energy-efficient cars in our range. So when you see these logos you’ll know we’re talking about ways to cut
emissions and the cost of your motoring. Environmental technologies of today are meeting the driving
challenges of tomorrow with one very important aim: to reduce the impact of our cars on the environment
for future generations.
