Alright, so if you're looking for a family car, you'd probably consider something like the VW Passat or the 2012 Routan first. But maybe you live in the city so a smaller car is more practical? Maybe you're on a tight budget, especially when it's time to fill the gas tank? No matter, the 2012 Volkswagen Jetta is an excellent choice, too.

Why's that? Well, did you know that the...

You probably know that the 2012 Passat is built right here in America. But did you know that this was Volkswagen's second attempt to build an all-American vehicle? Yup - back in the 80s, the German automaker was one of the first foreign companies to move vehicle production to the States with the Rabbit. Turns out, it wasn't the right time or place, and the plant closed its doors in 1988.

But if you...

If you've been paying any attention lately, you'll have heard something about the 2012 Volkswagen Passat. Maybe you've heard that it's built right here in the United States, or that it's the Motor Trend Car of the Year. Regardless of what you already know, we'd like to add one more impressive thing to the list: Kelley Blue Book recently named it one of their 10 Best Sedans Under...

If there's one thing American drivers know about Volkswagen, it's that many of their cars are available with clean-burning TDI engines. Meanwhile, their engineers are also hard at work creating hybrids and electric vehicles, too. So what if the German automaker was to combine two of the leading fuel-efficient technologies? Well, then you'd have the Volkswagen Cross Coupe Concept, a diesel-hybrid crossover.

Yup, it's a crossover, much like the...

It's no secret that Volkswagen leads in TDI engine sales here in the United States. In fact, one of every five Volkswagen models sold in 2011 was powered by a TDI engine - including the Jetta TDI, Passat TDI, and the Touareg TDI, joined by the Beetle TDI for 2012. But that doesn't mean VW will stop at clean diesel in their fuel-efficiency technology. For 2013, they've taken one of their most popular...

Not so long ago, the idea of a self-driving automobile seemed to exist only in Sci-Fi, and our wildest imaginations. Recently, however, they've come closer and closer to reality. Google has racked up more than 140,000 miles on their test fleet of autonomous Prius models, and Audi sent an unmanned TTS up to the summit of Pikes Peak. And, in a recent move by the Legislative Commission of the Nevada Department of Motor...

For years, Volkswagen has offered drivers around the world (including right here in Roseville), the chance to drive clean-diesel variants of their most popular cars. That's right, models like the Volkswagen Jetta and Passat are now available with diesel powertrains. But what if we told you that soon enough, you'll be able to get an EV Bug or a Hybrid Jetta?

Before the North American International Auto Show, rumor had it that the...

Last month, we told you to watch out for the all-new Volkswagen Beetle during the Super Bowl this year. Leading up to the big game, VW released a teaser video called "The Bark Side," featuring a chorus of dogs barking out "The Imperial March." And then left us all wondering - how would they ever use the Star Wars theme and dogs? Even better - how could they possibly top last year's ad?

There are few...

There are a lot of things to love about the 2012 Volkswagen Passat. You might think that Kuni Roseville VW is biased, and maybe that's true, but we're willing to bet you'd have a hard time finding something not to love about it, especially with its spacious cabin, available clean-diesel engine, and a wide range of powertrain options. The really neat thing about this German-engineered sedan? It's built right here in...

Last month, we told you about how the people over at Adweek recognized the 2011 Volkswagen Passat Super Bowl ad as one of the best of the year. With that in mind, it shouldn't really come as a surprise to hear that Volkswagen recently announced that they've purchased a 60-second spot during the 2012 Super Bowl. And, while we think they're going to have a hard time beating last year's commercial...
