Tenth Consecutive Month of Best-Ever Results

AJAX, ON – August 3, 2011 –– Volkswagen Canada is pleased to report that it has established a new company record for sales during the month of July. This marks the tenth consecutive month during which an all-time high has been reached. The 4,522 new vehicles sold exceed last year’s total of 3,881 by 17%.

Year-to-date sales of 31,464 are 18% above the same period last year.

The all-new 2011 Jetta has established itself as one of the best selling cars in Canada. Noticeably larger than its predecessor, the Jetta offers more space, better fuel economy and a fresh, modern look despite a significantly lower starting price. During the month of July, 2,323 were sold, bringing its year-to-date total up to 16,364.

The Golf family, including hatchback, wagon and sporty GTI, contributed 1,292 to the overall sales figure, and continues to offer outstanding versatility and value to the Canadian consumer.

Volkswagen presently offers a wide range of vehicles. Each one delivers outstanding fuel economy and combines sportiness, safety and value in a fun-to-drive package. The range of available engines includes the award-winning TDI Clean Diesel, which can be found in the Jetta, Golf, Golf wagon and Touareg sport utility, and will soon be offered in the upcoming all-new Passat.

Auto Pilot system combines other driver-assistance function and is able to drive the car alone at speeds of up to 130 km/h (81 mph)

Volkswagen is using its research subsidies wisely.
The German automaker is working on a system called Temporary Auto Pilot (TAP) which can semi-automatically drive a car on its own under limited conditions.
TAP works by combining other functions like ACC adaptive cruise control and Lane Assist (which helps keep the car within a lane) into an integrated system. Always monitored by the driver, and always leaving her/him the ability to override the system when needed, TAP can drive a car 'semi-automatically' at speeds of up to 130 km/h (81 mph) on a highway.
The system was developed by VW as part of the EU funded R&D project HAVEit ("Highly Automated Vehicles for Intelligent Transport") where the TAP system was presented as a complete project.
Said Volkswagen's Executive Director for Research, Prof. Dr. Jürgen Leohold:
"[This is] an important milestone on the path towards fully automatic and accident-free driving."
