Volkswagen Press Release:
VOLKSWAGEN PRESENTS ITS CLEANEST DIESEL EVER DURING L.A. AUTOSHOW
All-new Jetta TDI Clean Diesel will be available |
summer 2008LOS ANGELES –Volkswagen of America, Inc. today introduced its cleanest diesel ever, a 2.0L four cylinder TDI engine that will be available in Jetta sedan and SportWagen body styles in the summer of 2008. The 2009 Jetta TDI, equipped with the clean diesel engine option, will be available in all fifty states.
This innovative new engine meets the most stringent Tier II/Bin 5 standards, without the use of urea injection. Instead, a nitrous oxide storage catalyst reduces NOx emissions by up to |
90 percent. The engine management system changes operating modes to periodically treat the NOx stored in the catalyst. A particulate filter further reduces emissions, allowing this new clean diesel to be held to the same standards as gasoline models.
In the Jetta application, this sixteen valve engine will produce 140 horsepower and 235 foot pounds of torque. Featuring a common rail fuel supply and high pressure injectors, smoothness and drivability have been greatly improved over previous Volkswagen diesel engines.

This clean diesel technology will be available in 2009 Jetta models in the third quarter of 2008. Pricing for this new model has not yet been established. |
