Wow! The aluminum frame and the tubo diesel, pared with Blizzard tires on alloy rims and this little puppy haulz arse! This entry level audi gets 50+ mpg, has the classic thick/stiff german leather. Too bad diesel is awful for our environment and VW knew and had to rig the numbers. So, if you can find one of these that has had the modification fixed, I would certainly consider this vehicle as we enter a MadMaxx world.Nov 03, 2023

Great car. Fit and finish is above expected. A little disappointed in distance available in EV mode. Goes through the battery in short order. Great if you dont have a long distance to travel to and from work. Got outstanding gas economy (36mpg) with the vehicle on our first trip.Feb 23, 2021
