this concept was a pretty big hit at the LA auto show, so i think you'll start seeing a lot of eco cars from VW. although many consider their clean diesel tech to be pretty eco-friendly as well.

Nice concept,but I don't believe that VW would make a ecologic car.They are good in diesel cars.

I think EU emissions requirements will force VW to make plug-in vehicles. Likewise, VW is going to use their diesel experience to develop diesel hybrids and probably diesel plug-in hybrids.

VW will certainly continue to excel at diesel technology, but I'm actually very excited about their upcoming hybrids.
