Volkswagen Golf TwinDrive Hybrid Vehicle

www.eurocarnews.com - Different than todays hybrid vehicles, it should be emphasized that TwinDrive and this is decisive enables long ranges in the city in electric mode. While the E-motor on a typical hybrid model just supplements the combustion engine, the exact opposite is true on the TwinDrive: here the diesel or gasoline engine supplements the E-motor.

In this case, not only is improved fuel economy a core objective; another is to enable driving in urban areas by electrical power that is therefore emissions-free using renewable energy. The combustion engine ensures that long ranges can be realized outside of the cities too. The vehicles intelligent operating system always chooses the optimal operating mode individually tailored to the specific route and situation, so it always offers the most efficient combination of electric motor and combustion engine. And, in turn, that enables unprecedented fuel economy.
