New drive option: Volkswagen starts pre-sales for new full hybrid with 125 kW for Golf and T-Roc – AutoMart Canada

Three driving profiles. The driver will be able to choose between three driving profiles on board the new Golf Hybrid and T-Roc Hybrid: Eco, Comfort and Sport. In the Eco driving profile, the maximum system output is limited to 70 per cent and the boost function is deactivated to reduce energy consumption. The Comfort profile does not limit the system output and allows boosting. In the Sport driving profile, the sporty characteristics are achieved by the drive changing earlier to serial mode so that full power is made available quickly.

New hybrid for more choice. With the introduction of the 125 kW full hybrid, Volkswagen is expanding its range in the high-volume compact and SUV segments. A further performance level of this technology will be added to the portfolio soon. The new hybrid system can be identified by the designation ‘Hybrid’ on the rear of the respective model and closes the gap here between the mild hybrid, which is already available as ‘eTSI’, and the plug-in hybrids. These can be ordered for the Golf under the label ‘eHybrid’ or as a sporty Golf GTE.
