VERY RARE V10 TWIN-TURBO DIESEL WITH LOW MILEAGE. Hi, we have decided to sell our 2004 V10 Diesel Volkswagen Touareg with only 85,173 miles on it. It was primarily her car and she, being a substitute school teacher, drove this back and forth to the various schools in our area with the occasional trip out of town. This car has been meticulously maintained by our local Volkswagen dealership with all maintenance done at the specified intervals. We are the second owner and purchased this vehicle with a little over 7000 miles on it.
This vehicle is one of the finest examples of German engineering and is highly sought after because of its rarity and fine reputation. It has a very powerful 315bhp twin-turbocharged diesel engine with a HUGE 553lb-ft. of torque which is better that most trucks have. This is a heavy SUV and full of all sorts of safety features. Despite its weight it gets excellent fuel mileage at 22-26 mpg Highway and 18-20mpg around town. It is a very comfortable and easy-to-drive vehicle for in town driving or open road touring. This model has the 'winter package' which has both front and back, left and right individual climate controls. It even has a pass-through from the rear luggage area through the back seat complete with bag for skis and poles for ski buffs.
It has every option available including navigation (NAVI) with discs that include all USA and Canada, premium factory sound system with the optional 6-disc cd player, keyless entry with two remotes, front and rear parking sensors, power heated memory front seats with three memory settings, heated steering wheel which is also power adjustable, heated and remote controlled outside mirrors, and it even has a cooling feature in the glove box to keep a water bottle cold. It features an adjustable/removeable luggage rack, all-weather floor mats and rear cargo tray. It also has the powered moon roof and window shades for the rear door windows.
This has the Tip-Tronic automatic transmission with a manual mode. It has adjustable height suspension for off-road use (which we never used). It also has high and low speeds in four wheel drive mode. The tires are NITTO TERRA GRAPPLER All-Terrain tires with a little over 20,000 miles on them so still have good tread life (see pictures). It is a non-smoker vehicle and interior upholstery is in excellent condition.
The outside finish has minor imperfections from normal road use but is in overall very good to excellent condition. This has been one of the best cars we have ever owned and it is with regret that we are selling but it is time to move on. It is a bargain compared to the new ones which I believe are in the 70k+ range and with such low mileage should give someone years of enjoyment. I have included lots of pictures to show as much as possible about this vehicle. This vehicle has never been in an accident.

VW walks away from Aurora after self-driving startup partners with FCA
Wed, Jun 12 2019BERLIN — Volkswagen has ended its partnership with self-driving car software firm Aurora, two days after the Silicon Valley start-up said it would build autonomous platforms for commercial vehicles with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. "The activities under our partnership have been concluded," a VW spokesman said in a statement on Tuesday following an earlier Financial Times report on the move which said VW now wanted to work with Ford Motor Co on autonomous driving. Ford's majority-owned subsidiary Argo AI is building an automated "driver" that could compete with Aurora's technology. Aurora said Tuesday "Volkswagen Group has been a wonderful partner to Aurora since the early days of development of the Aurora Driver." The company's statement added that it continues to work "with a growing array of partners." The autonomous vehicle industry is still in its infancy, and alliances and strategies are fluid. Aurora has sought to remain independent and serve a number of would-be autonomous vehicle makers rather than be acquired. Aurora, which said in February it had raised $530 million in new funding, also has partnerships with Hyundai Motor Co and China's Byton to develop and test self-driving systems for automakers, fleet owners and others. After announcing its partnership with Aurora in early 2018, VW last June began discussions with Ford to develop a range of commercial vehicles, later extending the discussions to include electric vehicles and Argo's autonomous driving technology as part of an alliance designed to save billions in costs. VW and Ford have not announced partnerships involving electric or autonomous vehicle technology. Green Chrysler Fiat Ford Volkswagen Technology Emerging Technologies Autonomous Vehicles
Recharge Wrap-up: VW Golf TDI wins green car award, DC buses might go electric
Wed, Jul 23 2014The 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI has won the award for 2014 Northwest Green Car or the Year. The distinction comes from the Northwest Automotive Press Association during its Drive Revolution event in Portland. Co-chairman of the event, Jeff Zurschmeide, says, "Volkswagen has led the diesel passenger car market for years, and the Golf TDI proves that they're likely to stay on top for a while." The 2015 Golf TDI has 10 more horsepower than the outgoing model, while improving fuel economy thanks to a new engine. It also has a base price $3,000 lower than the 2014 Golf TDI.

The laser lights use half the energy of their LED counterparts, according to BMW, which is important when one is trying to get every last bit of range out of the car's battery. The laser high beams can also reach about twice as far as LED lighting. Because of their brightness, they won't be available on cars sold in the US. In laser-equipped i8s, the laser high beams will not work below 60 kilometers per hour, nor when other lights are detected in front of the vehicle. Head to Automotive News Europe to read more. Renault has delivered a fleet of 30 Kangoo ZEs to Uruguay's government-owned power company, UTE. The electric fleet will allow the company to reduce its CO2 emissions by 36 metric tons, says Renault. 84 percent of Uruguay's electricity comes from renewable sources, with a goal of 90 percent on the horizon. Uruguay aims to get a third of its electricity from wind farms by 2016, meaning these Kangoo ZEs will be powered in no small part by renewable energy. For Renault, "This order is a further sign of the interest in the region for electric vehicles," according to Denis Barbier, Renault's senior vice president, citing previous deliveries in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina and Colombia.

Some of the diesel buses, which were first put to work in 2003, are nearing the end of their life cycle, and DC sees an opportunity to make the switch to something a little greener. "Electric has not been a viable option in previous procurements, but now it is," says Will Handsfield, Georgetown Business Improvement District's transportation director. Handsfield is concerned about air quality, and says he also appreciates the long-term stability of electric rates compared to diesel.
Translogic 164: Driving the fuel cell vehicles of the 2014 LA Auto Show
Wed, Nov 26 2014The LA Auto Show is known for its environmentally friendly vehicle debuts. At last year's show, hydrogen fuel cell concepts from Honda and Toyota joined a lease-ready Hyundai Tucson FCEV to cast a green hue over the convention center. This year, automakers took us a step closer to a fuel cell future by offering drives of their hydrogen-electric hybrids. Translogic host Jonathon Buckley takes a ride in the Toyota Mirai, which is headed for production in 2016. He follows that with a spin in the Volkswagen Passat HyMotion and the Audi A7 Sportback h-tron quattro concept. Which of these fuel cell vehicles holds the most promise? Tune in to find out.
