Volkswagen Passat Sets World Record
From VW.com:
The world's most fuel-efficient couple has done it again. John and Helen Taylor were determined to break the record for the farthest distance traveled on a single tank of fuel. They decided to attempt the record in the U.S. with a stock 2012 Volkswagen Passat SE TDI Clean Diesel vehicle equipped with a six-speed manual transmission. The previous record for the most miles covered on a single tank of diesel was 1526.6 miles, achieved with a VW Passat 1.6 BlueMotion (R) diesel in Europe.
The result? A new record of 1626.1 miles, achieved on one tank of ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel under real world driving condition. That's an incredible 99.5 miles better than the old mark. Over the course of three days and driving through nine states, the couple averaged 84.1 miles per gallon, spending only 4.65 cents per mile. The three-day drive commenced on May 3,2012 in Houston, TX and ended on May 5, 2012 in Sterling, Virginia. To make the drive as realistic as possible, the couple included 1200 pounds of luggage and drove during daylight hours to experience normal traffic situations. Additionally, the couple took turns driving and didn't travel more than 14 hours per day.
"We're excited to have broken the record for the longest distance driven on one-tank of fuel." said John Taylor. "The Passat TDI was the perfect car for the trip. It offers plenty of interior and cargo space, yet is frugal enough to help us achieve this record."

Good Maintenance Helps Volkswagen Jetta Reach Half-Million Mile Mark
From VW.com:
Matt Marion, deputy editor at Men's Health magazine, recently reached the half-million mile mark in his 2011 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T -- and wanted to see if his maintenance regime had helped the car's turbocharged powerplant hum so reliably for so long. Marion's blog that details his efforts to help his 2001 Volkswagen Jetta 1.8T reach 500,000 miles culminated in a trip to Volkswagen Group of America's Auburn Hills Technical Center in Michigan to get their expert take on his car's condition.
At the Volkswagen Technical Center, Marion and a videographer watched as technicians took apart his Jetta's engine over the course of two days, checking for cylinder wall wear and intake valve carbon deposits. Overall, the technicians found little wear and buildup, crediting Marion's careful attention to the Jetta's service needs in keeping his engine operating so efficiently over the years. The key takeaway? Adhering to the service guidelines found in an owner's manual is vital in helping a car's engine last.
