Volkswagen cars

When translated from German to English, Volkswagen directly translates to ‘people’s car’, and this name has stood the test of time for close to 100 years. Being one of the world’s leading car manufacturers, VW strives to create some of the most advanced and family-oriented models, such as the Polo, Golf and larger Tiguan. These cars have existed in its lineup for many years and are improved with every facelift. 

In addition to the popular petrol, hybrid and diesel models it sells, Volkswagen is also focusing on electric cars. Some of its most popular EVs include the ID.3, ID.4 and e-Golf. VW's future is electric, and to already have these models gives us a lot of hope for what’s to come. 

Some of the best features you’ll find in a Volkswagen aren’t overly fancy, but they are important to modern driving. These include parking cameras and sensors, a solid infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, heated door mirrors, and the ability to remotely open and close your windows by the key fob. 

To go along with these features, VW ensures that its cars are also reliable and safe, offering tried-and-tested fuel-efficient engines across its range. You very rarely hear complaints about Volkswagen build quality, and that’s for good reason. 

Following its most recent Euro NCAP crash test, the most recent VW models scored very highly, offering excellent safety equipment such as airbags, automatic emergency braking (AEB), ISOFIX mounting points and speed assistance. All of the above means running costs are kept to a minimum to ensure its drivers could be first-time drivers looking for affordable car insurance or someone a little older who just needs a reliable car to get them from A to B that won’t cost an arm and a leg to run.
