2012 Focus vs Cruze vs Jetta
#3
Ok we have two TDI cars, 2011 Jetta TDi 6 spd that i use for highway driving and i'm very happy with that. The issue is the wife's 2010 Golf Tdi w DSG, she gets about 800kms a tank, but i think the hybrids are lot better for city driving. Tdi's are great for highway driving.

According to gov fuel fiquires Golf gets 7.8 l/100km or 30 mpg, Prius is 4.6 l/100km or 51 mpg So i think for city driving the hybrids are the better choice. Highway TDI rules Smile

My 02 has the best fuel mileage, then its the 04-06 TDI engine and then its the new CR engines, but also keep in mind the new CR engine has 140Hp and my 02 had only 90. VW says you can get 1000kms per tank highway driving, I can easily achive that with 6spd standard and highway driving. City driving and DSG....well thats a different story i guess.

One more thing is the VW wont bring their start-stop future to North America bc they say we are too stupid and we would probably take the car to the dealership everyday bitching about the car stalling at traffic lights! with that system and the smaller engine VW polo gets an amazing mileage way better then any Hybrids out there!
