Volkswagen XL1 Debuts in Chattanooga


From VW.com:

The Volkswagen XL1, the most fuel-efficient and aerodynamic production car in the world, made its U.S. debut at the 23rd Annual Society of Environmental Journalists (SEJ) Conference at the Chattanooga Convention Center today. The XL1 offers an estimated European combined fuel consumption rating of 261 mpg (more than 200 mpg estimated in the U.S. cycle) and can cover up to 32 miles as a zero-emissions vehicle in all-electric mode.

“The XL1 offers a glimpse into Volkswagen’s present and future eco-mobility capabilities, and highlights the ultimate successes of ‘Thinking Blue’,” said Oliver Schmidt, General Manager of the Engineering and Environmental Office (EEO), Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. “Volkswagen is proud to debut this ultra-fuel-efficient vehicle before the Society of Environmental Journalists, a group that shares in our commitment to environmental stewardship.”

In addition to the XL1 display, Volkswagen’s participation in the SEJ Conference included a tour of its LEED® Platinum-certified Chattanooga manufacturing plant and solar park; test-drives in its line of eco-friendly cars, such as the e-Golf, Passat TDI Clean Diesel and Jetta Hybrid; and a bird-watching expedition on Volkswagen Chattanooga’s sanctuary grounds.

Volkswagen Chattanooga Awarded Green Power Leadership Award


From Volkswagen:

Volkswagen Chattanooga announced today that it has received a 2013 Green Power Leadership Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The annual awards recognize the country’s leading green power users for their commitment and contribution to helping advance the development of the nation’s voluntary green power market.

EPA presented Volkswagen Chattanooga with the award at an event held in conjunction with the 2013 Renewable Energy Markets Conference in Austin, Texas on September 23, 2013.

Volkswagen Chattanooga was one of only four organizations nationwide to receive a Leadership Award for the on-site generation of green power. The award recognizes EPA Green Power Partners who distinguish themselves using on-site renewable energy applications, such as solar photovoltaic (PV) or landfill gas. Volkswagen Chattanooga is currently generating more than 13 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power annually from an on-site solar energy system, which is enough green power to meet 12 percent of the organization’s electricity use.

Why Choose Emich Volkswagen for Your Pre-Owned Vehicle Purchase?

Buying a pre-owned vehicle can be a daunting process. 

Where did the car come from?  Who were the previous owners?  Was the car maintained?  Is the car going to be reliable? 

Leave those questions to the experts at Emich VW!  Our vehicles are all hand selected to provide you not only the best value, but also reliability. Frequently other dealers do a minimal amount of reconditioning, but this is not the case at Emich Volkswagen.  All of our pre-owned vehicles meet or exceed Emich’s reconditioning standards. This is why almost all of our vehicles qualify for a Zurich extended service contract. 

For added peace of mind, vehicle history checks provided by Carfax may be viewed for our entire inventory online.  It is simple;  just click on the Carfax icon.
