2014 / 2015 Volkswagen Passat TDI Review and Road Test

Once of the most frequent car advice emails I get is from the commuter that wants to save gas on their commute but doesn't want to give up the family sedan. Until recently this question narrowed the field down to a few hybrid sedans, but in 2014 the field is wide open with hybrid options galore and soon we'll have two oil burning options. While we wait for the Mazda's new SkyActiv diesel to start shipping in the USA I picked up a Volkswagen Passat TDI for a week to find out if a little diesel could bring some cost reduction to my commute. Join me as I dive deep into the TDI and compare it to the latest gasoline electric hybrids like the nee 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid. Statistics powered by ChannelMeter http://channelmeter.com
