The newest member of the facelifted Golf Plus family combines VW's new 105HP 1.6-liter diesel engine with a number of BlueMotion modifications including Start/Stop and regenerative braking systems, low rolling resistance tyres and revised gear ratios which result in a fuel economy rating of 65.7 mpg UK (54.7 mpg US or 4.3 lt /100km) in the combined cycle while emitting 114 g/km of CO2.
According to the 'das' Germans, that's an 11 per cent improvement in economy and a ten per cent reduction in carbon dioxide emissions over the outgoing Golf Plus BlueMotion that was powered by a 1.9-liter TDI diesel with 105 horsepower.
