What is Diesel
There's 'diesel', and then there's 'Volkswagen TDI'.
Not all diesels were created equal.
Since Rudolf Diesel patented the diesel engine in 1892 as a more efficient and economical alternative to petrol engines, we've lead the way in refining, improving and innovating diesel technology. The result: Volkswagen's turbo diesel injection technology (TDI) & the ultimate diesel engine. You won't know it's a diesel until you look at its fuel gauge.
The Best of Both Worlds.
Volkswagen TDI offers the performance and driveability of a petrol engine with the economy and efficiency of diesel across its entire passenger vehicle range. Which means whether it's a sporty Golf, an affordable Polo or versatile Multivan that suits you, you can enjoy all the benefits of TDI without checking your individuality at the door.
Diesel Then.
Over the years, our passion for perfection, problem solving and style drove us to innovate a comprehensive solution to ‘the diesel problem’.
Symptoms: Noise, Pollution & Lacklustre Performance.
The diesel engine produced a characteristic clunky ‘tractor’ engine noise, generating thick black exhaust smoke that was harsh on the environment. The sluggish, low-torque performance of the diesel engine seemed more at home on the farm than the autobahn.
Diagnosis:
Completely unacceptable to a car manufacturer who prides itself on style, refinement and performance. |

Why Diesel
Volkswagen's Turbocharged Direct Injection (TDI) diesels are at the forefront of today’s diesel revolution thanks to our exclusive Pumpe Düse system.
High Pressure Injection
Pumpe Düse - which means ‘pump injector’ - overcomes the problem of pressure lost through fuel pipes. The injector and pump are integrated into a single Pumpe Düse unit. Each cylinder has its own Pumpe Düse unit mounted in the cylinder head and operated by the camshaft, injecting fuel
directly into the combustion chamber at pressures up to 30,000psi.
These high pressures produce a far more efficient blending of the fuel/air mix, precise control of fuel quantities and injection timings.
Increased Performance & Economy
Benefits of Pumpe Düse include good fuel economy, reduced exhaust emissions, and substantially increased performance with more torque than traditional injection systems. The Pumpe Düse engine is also relatively quiet in operation, with noise levels similar to those of a petrol engine. |

Diesel Range
Golf & TDI. It’s a win-win situation.
Class-leading excellence in design, features and thrilling driving with the fuel economy of TDI.
Available as a 1.9L (77kW) and a 2.0L (103kW), the sporty Golf TDI brings you the drive excitement and style of the legendary Golf with the reassurance of TDI economy.
With a surprising 320Nm of torque, the Golf 2.0 TDI is a match for any standard petrol engine which means with the Golf TDI, you’ve got nothing to lose and everything to gain.
You Can Have it All.
Volkswagen now offers diesel (TDI) options across our entire passenger vehicle range. So whether it’s Golf sports style, Passat elegance, New Beetle fun, Caddy Life comfort or the Polo price tag that gets your engine started, Volkswagen has a TDI with your name on it.
