Introducing the Phaeton in 2004 was a milestone in Volkswagen’s car making history. As a crucial initial step into the luxury sedan market, the German car maker was poised to hold its own alongside other popular marques. Volkswagen offered two engine options a 3.2 liter V8 engine which makes 335 horsepower, and the 6.0 liter W12 engine which produces 420 horsepower. The V8 engine option came with a six-speed automatic transmission, while the W12 was matched with a five-speed automatic.

There’s a wide range of standard features carried by the Volkswagen Phaeton, reflecting the huge investment Volkswagen made. Premium materials and refined details applied with exacting standards resulted to a classy, comfortable, and quiet luxury vehicle. Among the exclusive features are a four-zone climate system and standard 4motion four wheel drive, plus a selection system for the motorist’s ride preference.

Volkswagen’s auto-making heritage is long and eventful. Part of it is the creation and transformation of a speedy and fun to drive car: the Volkswagen Rabbit. One of the products of Volkswagen’s relationship with Audi, the Rabbit is a compact vehicle which originally arrived in 1974 in the European marketplace as the sensibly engineered VW Golf. In the US, the Rabbit was the premier Volkswagen created which reaped satisfactory sales. Interestingly, the square headlights of the Americans turned out to be of better quality than the German counterparts.

Later years saw the Rabbit turning back into the Golf, but in 2006, to cater to the increasing market of young consumers, Volkswagen changed the Golf back into the Rabbit. Several transformations afterwards, you now have the 2009 version which is a highly functional and elegant-looking family coupe that can seat five passengers. The 2009 Rabbit is powered by a 2.5 liter in-line front engine that makes 170 horsepower. The hatchback comes in two-door or four-door versions. Standard features & amenities include velour trim, satellite radio, and heated seats, among others. Modern safety features include anti-lock brakes, stability and traction control, and multiple airbags.

Leave it to German auto maker Volkswagen to broaden its brand appeal and tap the upmarket by introducing product breakthroughs. When Volkswagen teamed up with the Chrysler Group to create the Routan, it added an interesting footnote to its history. The Volkswagen Routan is a reworked version of Chrysler’s minivan, but with more upscale appearance and styling. The VW Routan is available with the Chrysler 3.8 liter V6 engine that makes 197 horsepower, features plush roller seat system, plus internet access for wi-fi enabled devices.

The Routan’s front grille and exterior design lets car aficionados easily identify it as a Volkswagen innovation. The interior reflect European design standards and characteristics. Luxurious features also characterize the minivan. The 2009 model features taillights with a curvature that brings to mind of the current Passat and Jetta. Standard all-season traction control and ESP are some of the safety and security features of the Volkswagen Routan.

The Volkswagen Thing is an attention-grabbing car, especially for automobile enthusiasts with a penchant for old vehicles which bring with them a piece of history and which can be restored or customized. The Thing was an updated version of the Kubelwagen wartime jeep that German soldiers used during World War II. In 1969, the slightly modified form called “Kubelwagen Model 181” was created in 1969, which was then sold to the Americans as the Thing.

Literally meaning “bucket wagon,” the Thing became known by other names in other countries. The compact military vehicle was fashioned after Volkswagen’s Beetle Type 1.. The car’s features of the car had marked variations from one country to another. In Europe, it became known as VW 181 and utilized for off-road applications. The UK market had a right-hand version called the Trekker. All versions do carry the Volkswagen performance features and “people’s car” character. The Volkswagen Thing had been used in countless movies.

Test Driving the Volkswagen Thing

The Volkswagen Tiguan is a compact sport utility vehicle which incorporates attractive sports car features. It comes with a low swung front apron and a suspension perfectly tweaked to its 4MOTION four-wheel drive. The front end is also characterized by sharp contours, hence overhang angles up to 28 degrees will not stand in its way.

The high-performance model of the Volkswagen Tiguan comes with a powerful 2.0 liter TSI engine with a turbo kit that allows it to make 295 horsepower.

The all-new 2009 version, whose 102.5 wheelbase follows the VW Golf, Jetta and Passat models, comes in three levels, namely, S, SE and SEL. Units with a front wheel drive may have either an optional six-speed automatic transmission or six-speed manual. A functional vehicle for family excursions or for sporty singles, Tiguan can transfer up to 50 percent of torque to the rear wheels when needed, regardless of road conditions. The modern features include Electronic Stability Control.
