    I wish for a Diesel-electric truck. 25City/30Highway would be a start...while pulling a boat/trailer...

    So, it's a less good-looking diesel Audi A1? Liked it better the first time.

    I laugh at your silly American soap opera car companies. There is no room for weakness in making ze Auto. Volkswagenwerk will bring you the future. The future is diesel and diesel-electric. Have a nice day.

    We are the VAG.
    Resistance is futile.
    You will be assimilated.

    Doesn't the diesel Polo already achieve these MPG numbers (without all the smug hybridery)?

    A 1,500 lb., four-passenger, diesel-electric hybrid.

    This. Will. NEVER. Sell. In. America.

    There's not 'sport' in the name, it's a diesel, and it's still hatchbacky-looking.

    /I think it's the correct direction, which is also wrong, based on the stupidity I see, daily.

    Not bad at all for a purpose-built eco car. Reminiscent of the current Scirocco in many ways.

    @Ash78, tryptophanatic: My thoughts exactly, but with a C30 rear end.

    I have a 4 mile commute and I would drive this in a second. Fill ups would be like every 6 months!

    @VeeArrrSix: NO snark, but serious question: Isn't four miles like a 20 minute bike ride? That would be zero fill ups.

    I call BS on this one. We all know that cars "aimed at the young" end up being bought by old people trying to look hip. All of those cars look way too hard to climb into for the real target demographic. #conceptcars

    Once again Audi and Mazda are the only noteworthy examples of clear design direction. While the other manufacturer's run nillywilly with their nonsensical unfocused designs, Audi and Mazda have instantly recognizable elements that hopefully survive to 2030. #conceptcars
