I think he is a test engineer for VAG (Volkswagen Audi Group). This is an endurance test. You know, to see how the all wheel drive system holds up.

The magical 50mpg ... if you strip new Audi/Volkswagen diesels of all the unneccessary shit like the Audi lane assist, you can get 70+ mpg in a city. Hell, even my sister's 1997 Golf IV TDI does ~50mpg.

376 mpg with a minimally modified combustion engine in a chassis with a drag coefficient and the weight of a brick ... that does sound odd to me. I'm not calling bollocks on it, but what i do know is that a mere six years ago, Volkswagen presented their 240 mpg concept car and that sucker was running at less than 10 bhp and looked like a sperm.

On a sidenote: you can easily get 50+ mpg in a city with TDI/CDI/BlueMotion cars.

Thanks for the note, it's fixed now.

I'm amazed at all the Volkswagen Beetles -- can you imagine a more unraceable car?

She keeps her eyes closed an awful lot while explaining things, dangerous levels of smug?

I was actually looking at these earlier today. Check out as Mr.Uptake completely runs that stop sign in a residential area: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKRPuza1RKU in his Volkswagen Jetta, as he was sure to remind people in another video. I have a hard time taking them seriously and I actually agree with most of their base level positions. What about the rest of America, is that effectual protest?

As far as the actual raids, it sounds horrible. I think they were looking for WMDs Molotov cocktails and other implements of destruction, and of course didn't find any (as far as I'm aware). Which makes me think the cops had a whole heap of BS for evidence to get the warrants.

I DO NOT want to be the guy in that Audi TT...

ALSO, after doing some googling, I found the article and some pretty disturbing pictures. Incredibly, no one died, a few injured, the truck driver was blamed for the whole thing.

omg i love that one. i think we already had it on the sift but what do i know ;-) It has it all: Weißwurst for breakfast, the Maß of beer, a Volkswagen burning rubber (though that should rather be a model Golf/Rabbit) and of course the beloved sportsuits. Just so great

Could be a Volkswagen viral the way he focusses at the logo at the end as if he wanted to say "thank god this car kept us safe"...
